Rutland, Vermont's Fall of Time have been running thrash metal through the cold, isolated lens of the Northeast since 2017. Their music carries the no-frills aggression of classic thrash — fast, lean, and built around riffs that don't waste a second.
New York's Fall Out launched in 2020 with a stripped-down thrash approach that prioritizes velocity and attitude over polish. Raw and unapologetically aggressive, they represent the kind of underground thrash that lives and dies by the intensity of the live room.
Out of Dunn, North Carolina, Fall River Massacre blends groove metal's rhythmic stomp with metalcore's structural urgency, a combination they've been refining since 2013. The result is a sound designed for heavy rotation at regional fests — thick, accessible, and hard-hitting.
Reno's Fall Silent have occupied the productive intersection of thrash, hardcore, and crossover since 2001, long enough to have watched trends come and go while staying true to a fast, abrasive, pit-friendly formula. Their longevity speaks to a consistent ability to deliver no-nonsense aggression.
Fall Time. is a post-metal and sludge metal band from Vienna, Austria. Their music draws on the slow, crushing heaviness and abrasive textures characteristic of the sludge and post-metal tradition, building long-form compositions that shift between dense, distorted passages and quieter atmospheric sections.
Fall to Flames is a deathcore band from Nottingham, England, formed in 2015. The band delivers crushing deathcore from the East Midlands city.
Fall'in Dreams is a heavy metal band from Smolensk in western Russia, active since 2010. They deliver classic heavy metal from the historic fortress city near the Belarusian border.
Fallakr is a black metal band from Morlaix, France, formed in 2015. The band creates atmospheric black metal from the Breton town in Finistère.
Fallaness is a one-person atmospheric black metal project from Floridsdorf, Vienna, responsible for all instruments, vocals, mixing, mastering, and artwork. Their debut concept album "Sagenwelten" (December 2024), released via Running Wild Productions, draws on folklore and legends of the old Danube regions around Vienna, with eight tracks featuring German-language titles rooted in nature and local mythology.
