Fit for an Autopsy rose from the New Jersey deathcore underground in 2008, led by guitarist and producer Will Putney, who also serves as one of metal's most in-demand studio engineers. Their evolution from straightforward deathcore into a more atmospheric and progressive sound on 'The Sea of Tragic Beasts' and 'Oh What the Future Holds' elevated them above the genre's pack. Vocalist Joe Badolato's commanding presence and Putney's pristine production make them one of deathcore's most critically respected acts.

Fiume Nero is an anarchist black metal project from Brescia, Italy, founded in June 2008 by guitarist Enna Cancry.

Five Days of Rain is a metalcore band from Alessandria, Italy, formed in 2010 and drawing on philosophical and spiritual themes. Their 2012 release Through 1000 Eyes is a conceptual work rooted in Schopenhauer's philosophy and Hindu thought, tracing an introspective journey from the veil of Maya toward self-determination.
Five Finger Death Punch stormed out of Las Vegas in 2005 and became one of the 21st century's biggest hard rock bands through sheer aggression and arena-ready hooks. Vocalist Ivan Moody's blend of melodic singing and savage screaming powers anthems like 'The Bleeding' and 'Wash It All Away' that dominate rock radio and military playlists alike. Love them or not, their brand of groove metal and hard rock has sold millions of records and fills amphitheaters across the globe.
