Black metal project from Uppsala, formed in 2018. Cemeterius channels dark, atmospheric black metal from the historic Swedish university city.
Cemeterum is a death metal band from Ohio steeped in the morbid, old-school tradition, favoring heavy downtuned riffing and murky production over technical showmanship, with a sound that leans toward the death-doom fringe of early death metal.
Tampa's Cemetery emerged from the same Florida death metal tradition that built the genre's founding mythology — thick, swampy riffs, cavernous production, and a death-is-everywhere aesthetic.
Cemetery Cove is a black metal band from Salt Lake City, Utah, crafting cold and atmospheric black metal with tremolo-picked guitar lines and expansive arrangements that draw from both Scandinavian second-wave black metal and the American atmospheric underground.
Cemetery Dave is a doom and stoner metal act from Boston, Massachusetts, blending the slow, heavy riff worship of traditional doom with the fuzz-soaked psychedelia of stoner rock, evoking Sabbathian oppression with a hazy, retro-tinted groove.
Austrian thrash metal band from Braunau am Inn, active since 2008, blending thrashing riffs with deathlike grooves and biting lyrics. Their catalog includes albums like 'An Anatomy of War' and 'Power of the Hypocrite,' tackling socially charged subject matter with technical brutality.
Cemetery Earth is a death metal band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, rooted in the old-school tradition with thick riffs, deliberate pacing, and a production aesthetic that recalls the murk of early 1990s American death metal.
Cemetery Echo is a gothic metal band from Buffalo, New York, blending melancholic melodies and dark atmosphere with heavy guitar work and clean, emotionally expressive vocals drawn from the classic gothic metal tradition of Type O Negative and early Paradise Lost.
Cemetery Filth is a death metal band from Atlanta, Georgia, known for channeling the cavernous and bestial approach of Incantation and Grave — suffocating riffs, deep guttural vocals drenched in reverb, and a deliberately sepulchral atmosphere.
