Fresno, California's Dead Monster Galaxy have been carving out progressive metal territory in California's Central Valley since 2020, building expansive, technically adventurous compositions far from the coasts. Their ambition matches the vast agricultural plains around them.

Dead Nature is a power metal band from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, originally formed in 1997 and later returning to activity with new members. The band's sound draws on classic heavy rock and metal influences including Deep Purple, Iron Maiden, and Rainbow, shaped into melodic power metal. Their debut full-length "Pure Impressions," released on Overload Records, earned recognition internationally, with tracks featured on the ProgPower USA VI and VII showcase samplers in 2005 and 2006.
Bandon, Oregon's Dead Nedry have been serving up hard-hitting groove metal from the wild Oregon Coast since 2011, built on heavy, mid-paced riffs that hit with the force of the Pacific storms off the southern shoreline. They're a fixture of Oregon's underrated metal underground.
Born from the grime and bleached-out sprawl of Las Vegas, Dead Neon fuse blackened crust punk with suffocating sludge, conjuring a sound as harsh and unforgiving as the Nevada desert. Their music carries the corroded spirit of a city that never quite cleans up after itself.
