Bydgoszcz-based death metal, melodic death metal, and thrash metal act, active since 2010 delivering HM-2 filth and d-beat fury in the old Swedish tradition. Rooted in one of Eastern Europe's most formidable metal communities, their approach favors no-frills brutality over technical showmanship.
Thrash/death metal band from the Landen/Tienen/Mechelen triangle in Belgium, delivering relentless aggression since 2009. Their sound combines thrash metal's velocity with death metal's brutality, drawing energy from multiple Belgian provinces.
