Gods & Punks is a stoner and doom metal band from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, formed by brothers Alexandre and Pedro Canhetti and blending heavy riffing with psychedelic and space rock elements. The band released the album "Death" in July 2024 through Electric Valley Records, a record inspired by vocalist Alexandre's near-death experience in 2021 and recorded across studios in Brazil and Paris.
Emerging from Salinas in 2012, Gods in Graves pull from black, death, and doom metal in equal measure — weaving cold tremolo runs through cavernous low-end and suffocating atmosphere. The result is something genuinely sepulchral.
Gods of Ancient is a four-piece death/doom metal band from Sofia, Bulgaria, formed in 2021 and self-described as dealing in "krushing death/doom." Their 2022 full-length Historia Mali Et Lucis features artwork adapted from Albrecht Durer's Knight, Death and the Devil, and was recorded at Mrdr Sound Studios.
Gods of Gaia is a symphonic death metal project from Germany, formed in 2024, merging symphonic orchestration with death metal's aggression in a dramatic, cinematic approach. The project is among the newest entries in the German symphonic extreme metal scene.
Gods of Hellfire is a heavy/doom metal band from Rochdale, England, formed in 2013 and delivering crushing heaviness across releases including Beneath the Waves, Chronicles of Death, and Live Once...Die Twice. Their sound draws from the classic doom and heavy metal traditions of northern England.
Gods of Silence is a Swiss power/heavy metal five-piece from Basel, formed in 2017, who released their debut Neverland through ROAR! Rock of Angels Records the same year. The eleven-track album showcases keyboard-driven melodic power metal with symphonic flourishes across forty-nine minutes.
Santa Fe's Gods of War balance melodic hooks against death metal's heavier instincts, threading cinematic lead work through the kind of rhythmic punishment the genre demands. Active since 2009, they've carved a distinctive niche in the New Mexico scene.
Gods Tower is a pioneering pagan/folk/doom metal band from Gomel, Belarus, active since 1992, making them one of the longest-running metal acts in the country.

Godscream is a death metal band from Kaluga, Russia, active since 2013 and delivering over a decade of uncompromising death metal from central Russia. The project channels relentless brutality.
