Dead Poet Society emerged from Boston in 2018, channeling raw garage-rock energy through a genre-blending approach that touches on grunge, punk, alternative, and even hip-hop. Frontman Jack Underkofler's charismatic vocal delivery and the band's willingness to swing wildly between styles give their music an unpredictable edge. Their debut '-!-' earned critical praise for its refusal to settle into any single lane, making them one of the most exciting new rock acts to emerge in recent years.

Troy, New York's Dead Rabbits carry the Southern sludge and stoner metal tradition deep into the Northeast, delivering heavy, swamp-soaked grooves far from their genre's geographic home. Lumbering riffs and fuzz-thick tones anchor everything they do.
Dead Rascal is a raw black metal band from Kropyvnytskyi, Ukraine, formed in 2022. The project channels lo-fi raw black metal.
Salt Lake City's Dead Revelator have been plowing heavy groove metal furrows since 2013, driven by thick mid-tempo riffs and a muscular directness that cuts through the noise. Their approach is no-frills and built to land.
Toledo's Dead Ringer have been keeping the thrash faith since 2010, built on crunching riffs and the kind of aggressive momentum that the Midwest underground does quietly and well. They owe nothing to trends and make no apologies for it.
