Delirium's Dawn is a heavy/thrash/death metal and metalcore band from Munich, Germany, active since 2008. They forge an ambitious crossover of multiple metal subgenres into a powerful, versatile sound.
Deliver the Suffering is a death/thrash metal band from Toulouse, France, formed in 2024. They deliver suffering through fierce death/thrash from southwestern France.
Deliver Us to Evil is a thrash/death metal band from Nottingham, England, formed in 2017. They deliver evil thrash/death from the East Midlands.
Los Angeles's Deliverance carry a storied legacy reactivated in 2020, blending speed metal and thrash with industrial elements in the tradition of the band's long history. Operating out of the LA metal scene, the band weaves mechanical menace through the kinetic force of high-octane thrash, a combination that has made them fixtures of the underground for decades across multiple incarnations.
Queens, New York's Deliverance formed in 2020 with an ambitious musical scope that blends progressive metal's complexity with the raw aggression of power and thrash metal. Hailing from one of New York City's most musically diverse boroughs, the band weaves together layered arrangements and technical ambition without abandoning the genre's essential heaviness.
Austin's DeLizza have been slinging crossover thrash and sludge-soaked metal since 2018, pulling from the Texas capital's eclectically heavy underground. Their sound mashes the short, sharp velocity of crossover punk with the thick, detuned weight of sludge metal — two extremes that share more in common than they might appear.
Nashua, New Hampshire's Delusion formed in 2021 with a straight-ahead death metal approach that suits the grim winters of the Granite State. Operating on the fringes of the New England extreme metal scene, the band commits to classic death metal structures and unflinching heaviness without distraction.
Acworth, Georgia's Delusional Mind formed in 2020 blending the kinetic energy of thrash metal with progressive metal's structural ambition. Their music moves between the aggressive, riff-forward momentum of classic thrash and more elaborately arranged passages, reflecting a band comfortable pushing the genre's boundaries without abandoning its essential aggression.
Deluzion plays melodic death/thrash metal from Zutphen in Gelderland, formed in 2022 and delivering aggressive compositions under the banner of deliberate self-deception. Their misspelled name suggests the illusions that sustain both their art and their audience.
