A Utah depressive black metal project formed in 2012, Echo of Life leans hard into the genre's most inward-facing qualities — slow, anguished, and constructed for solitary listening.
Black metal project from Nantes, France active since 2015. They channel desolate black metal atmospheres from the Loire estuary.
Chicago's Echo Primordium emerged in 2022 at the intersection of black and death metal, channeling the city's extreme underground lineage into something that feels both ancient and immediately punishing.
Psychedelic doom band from Brussels, Belgium, whose debut album is a single forty-eight-minute composition born from two years dedicated to space and heavy music. Their sound merges stoner metal, doom, and space rock into an exhausting, amped-up journey through vast sonic landscapes.
Heavy metal band from Zurich, Switzerland, forging traditional metal with an Alpine edge since 2019. Their name, meaning "Echo from the Aathal," roots their sound in the Swiss landscape while delivering classic heavy metal riffs.
Melodic death metal act from Mol, Belgium, formed in 2022, with releases "Before the Fall" and "Tribulation" showcasing their approach to the genre. Their sound carries the melodic sensibility and aggressive edge that defines the European melodic death metal tradition.
Miami's Echoes of a Nightmare has been fusing symphonic orchestration with death metal aggression and deathcore breakdowns since 2013 — a combination that plays to the city's theatrical, multilingual metal scene.
A product of Poland's titan-grade death metal scene, this Iwonicz-based death metal and doom metal act channels percussive blast-beat onslaughts and cavernous production. Active since 2018, low-tuned guitars and guttural vocals form the bedrock of their attack.
Echoes of Death is a death metal band from Caucaia, Ceará, Brazil, formed in 2018. The band released the seven-track album "...In the Cemetery" in November 2018 through Resistência Underground Distro as a limited edition CD, channeling the old-school Swedish death metal sound of the early 1990s. The lineup features Jardel Stick on vocals and guitars, Camilo on guitars, Fernando JFL on bass, and Ítalo Rodrigo on drums.
