Thrash/power metal act from Biberach in Upper Swabia, Germany, merging thrash velocity with power metal's anthemic grandeur since 2005. Their two-decade career reflects enduring dedication to this dynamic genre combination.
Out of Caruthersville, Missouri since 2016, Eternity deals in old-school heavy/thrash metal, delivering the kind of guitar-forward, heads-down aggression that the heartland underground runs on.
San Jose's Ethnocide have been unleashing caustic thrash-death metal since 2017, drawing from both the Bay Area's storied thrash heritage and the relentless brutality of death metal. Their music hits with the blunt force of a sledgehammer and the velocity of a freight train.
Death, power, and thrash metal band from Valencia, Spain. They deliver a versatile blend of extreme and melodic metal from Spain's eastern Mediterranean coast.
Eucrasia is a Buenos Aires thrash metal band listed on the Encyclopaedia Metallum under the thrash genre, with their discography including the album "Traicionera realidad" and "Engendrado por el odio" (2009). The band operates independently and draws on themes of human behaviour and mental states in their music.
Death/thrash metal band from Nokia, Finland formed in 2018. They deliver crushing extreme metal from the Pirkanmaa region near Tampere.
Greensboro's Eugenic Death have been thrashing the Piedmont underground since 2012 with no-frills, riff-forward metal built on speed, hostility, and an old-school refusal to compromise. Their name and sound both pull no punches.
Sarasota's Euphoria spike their thrash metal with psychedelic undercurrents, forging a sound that rips at high velocity before dissolving into lysergic haze since 2020. Florida's swamp-heat and the Gulf Coast's strangeness both seem to seep into their chemistry.
Heavy metal and thrash band from Tolosa in the Basque Country, Spain, formed in 2024. They bring fresh thrash-infused heaviness from the Basque underground.
