Death Whistle is a death, symphonic, and thrash metal band from Como, Italy, formed in 2020. The project merges death metal brutality with symphonic arrangements and thrash metal velocity in an ambitious Italian extreme metal blend.
Death Whore is a death metal/crust band from Nancy, France, formed in 2020. They deliver filthy death metal and crust from Lorraine.
Death Will Score is a metalcore band from Goslar in the Harz Mountains, active since 2004 and one of the earlier German acts to embrace the metalcore movement. Their two decades of work span the genre's evolution from its hardcore-leaning origins to its more technical, modern incarnation.
Austin's Death Will Tremble drag doom and sludge metal through the Texas heat until everything warps under the weight — slow, corrosive, and built to last. Active since 2016, they're a fixture in the city's heavier underground.
Ridgefield, Washington's Death Wins traffic in sludge metal that sounds like the Pacific Northwest's grey skies finally collapsed — slow, oppressive, and saturated with feedback. Formed in 2023, they hit hard for a young band.
Death Wrath is a black metal band from France. They channel wrathful black metal darkness.
Death Yell formed in Santiago in the late 1980s and recorded their 1989 demo 'Vengeance from Darkness' at Procor Studios, a release that achieved cult status in the global underground and led to split releases with Finland's Beherit and the Morbid Rites 7" on Seraphic Decay Records in 1992. After disbanding in 1991, the band reactivated and returned with the full-length 'Descent into Hell' in 2017, followed by the 'Asmodeus' Disciples' demo and the LP 'Demons of Lust' in 2025. Their sound draws on the raw, violent tradition of South American death and black metal, with clear debts to Brazilian extreme acts of the same era.
Deathaction plays melodic death metal from Rostov-on-Don in southern Russia, active since 2015 and delivering action-packed compositions driven by twin-guitar harmonies and aggressive vocals. Their compound name promises death-as-motion — relentless, kinetic extreme metal.
Deathadorn is a death/thrash metal band from Les Houches, France, formed in 2018. They deliver extreme metal from the shadow of Mont Blanc.
