Grégaire is a four-piece instrumental doom and post-metal band from Cherbourg in Normandy, France, active since 2021, building powerful musical frescoes from massive riffs, telluric rhythms, and aerial guitars. Their 2022 debut was recorded at Chaudelande Studio and co-produced by Cold Dark Matter Records.
Active since 2003 in Neuhofen an der Krems, GröBär play melodic death and thrash metal under the tongue-in-cheek banner of Bären-Metal—bear metal—complete with bear-themed member aliases. Their discography includes the 2014 album GROB and the 2019 record NICEANTSNOW, which won praise for its energetic melodic death metal approach.
