Gamborimbo is a goregrind trio from Osnabruck, Germany, formed in 2022, whose debut Fiesta Mexicana (2022) packs thirteen tracks of humor-laced goregrind into thirty-six minutes. The three-piece of Stefan (drums), Paddy (guitar), and Chewie (vocals) self-produced the album.
Gamdøden is a stoner/doom/sludge metal band from Helsingborg, Sweden, formed in 2022 and dealing in heavy, low-end punishment from the Øresund coast. The project merges three crushing genres into a single monolithic assault.
Eugene, Oregon's Game Over have been playing speed-laced thrash with old-school conviction since 2014, worshipping at the altar of fast picking and punishing rhythms. They keep the Pacific Northwest's thrash tradition burning without nostalgia getting in the way.
Game Zero is a hard rock/heavy metal band from Rome, formed in 2015. They deliver energetic heavy metal and hard rock from the Italian capital.
Staten Island's Gamma Ghouls started in hardcore and evolved into a crossover thrash juggernaut that captures the frenetic spirit of both worlds. Since 2014, they've brought the NYC borough's no-bullshit attitude to the pit with maximum velocity.
From the small town of Gilman, Illinois, Gamma Goat conjure the slow-burning heat of stoner metal with a rural authenticity that big-city acts rarely manage. Founded in 2017, they're proof that the Midwest can grow something heavy and hazy just as well as any desert.
Eugene, Oregon's Gamma Knife wield an unlikely but effective fusion of stoner metal's slow churn and death metal's gutting aggression. Active since 2011, they're one of the longer-running acts in the Pacific Northwest's underground and have honed that collision into something genuinely their own.
Gamma Ray is a power/speed metal band from Hamburg, Germany, formed in 2015, carrying forward the tradition of high-speed European power metal that Hamburg is famous for. The band delivers velocity-driven metal with melodic precision.
A fresh North Carolina entry in the heavy metal/hard rock tradition, Gamma Razor formed in 2023 with a sharp-edged, no-frills approach to classic metal songwriting. Still building their catalog, they show early promise in a state with a quietly strong metal scene.
