Dripback is a death metal, grindcore, and hardcore band from London, active since 2011 and self-described as delivering "hardcore / death / grind fury." Their 2020 album Blessed with Less Than Nothing was produced and mastered by Russ Russell with executive production by Nicholas H. Barker, pressed on vinyl through 4Family Records in a first run of 300 copies.
Based out of Clifton and active since 2021, Dripping operate at the extreme outer edge of slam and brutal death metal, injecting experimental sensibilities into an already punishing framework. The result is something deliberately disorienting — dense slabs of down-tuned brutality interrupted by moments of calculated sonic wrongness that keep listeners off balance.
Dripping Horror is a death and thrash metal band from Orebro, Sweden, formed in 2019. The project delivers aggressive death/thrash.
Dripping Sin is a thrash metal band from Soverato, in the Catanzaro province of Calabria, Italy, formed in 2014. The project delivers aggressive thrash metal from the deep south of Italy.
Driptorch is a stoner/groove metal band from Nuremberg, Germany, formed in 2015. They ignite with fuzz-drenched stoner grooves and heavy riffs.
Tampa's Dritt Skit — a name borrowed from Norwegian profanity — emerged in 2015 with a cold, stripped-down black metal attack that feels out of place in Florida's humid warmth, which may be precisely the point. Their music channels the grim isolation of the Scandinavian tradition filtered through an American underground sensibility.
Drittmaskin is a black, speed, and thrash metal band from Breim, Norway, formed in 2018. The project fuses black metal's rawness with speed and thrash metal's relentless velocity.
Technically stunning power metal from Houston.
Drive Your Life is a heavy metal band from Varna, Bulgaria, active since 2016 with a steady output including 'Sound Attack,' 'The Wizard of Death,' and 'Raise Your Power.' Their catalog spans nearly a decade of consistent, power-driven heavy metal.
