West Winfield, New York's Demential deal in brutal death metal from the rural upstate region, far from the polished club circuit — a geographic isolation that seems to inform the uncompromising density of their sound. Since 2019, they've pursued the most extreme end of the death metal spectrum with single-minded purpose.

Madison, Wisconsin's Demento have been at it since 2003, a longevity that speaks to a genuine commitment to heavy and groove metal in a city better known for indie and experimental music.
