Swedish death/thrash metal band from Linkoping, delivering relentless aggression since 2012. Their Spanish name, meaning 'the nameless,' adds an air of mystery to their extreme metal assault.
Los Suffers is a doom/sludge/death metal trio from São José dos Campos, Brazil, consisting of Luiz Dias (vocals/guitar), Jean Carreira (bass), and Brendan Kitchen (drums). The band released their debut full-length "Quando A Chama Se Apaga" in March 2022, a six-track album spanning over fifty minutes of heavyweight doom recorded at AS Studio in São José dos Campos. The record drew praise from the international doom and stoner metal press, with Doomed and Stoned highlighting it as a standout entry in Brazil's underground heavy scene.
Los Yithians are a doom and stoner metal trio from San Martín, Argentina, whose name references the Great Race of Yith from H.P. Lovecraft's fiction. Their debut album Pnakotus — seven tracks recorded live in October 2016 and mixed and mastered at 7 Cuchillos Records by Marcos Verón — was released in May 2017. The band's lineup on that record consisted of Edgar Sosa on guitar and vocals, Gastón Olaguibet on bass, and Alberto Adrián on drums.
Los Últimos Días are a Buenos Aires metal band formed in 2017, releasing a self-titled four-track debut that same year, recorded and mixed by Esteban Andrés Miranda at LST Studio in the Flores neighborhood of Buenos Aires. The trio features Juan Manuel Pasam on guitars and synthesizers, Rocío Rodríguez on bass, and Pablo Nuñez Galardo on drums. The band blends death metal, thrash, and punk influences in a raw underground style.
Italian black metal band from Oristano/Cagliari in Sardinia, active since 2018. Their Sardinian identity brings the island's rugged, isolated character to their black metal sound.
Phoenix stoner/doom outfit Loserfur cook up a hazy, sun-baked misery that thrives in the desert heat, blending fuzz-heavy riffs with a loose, narcotic groove.
French southern/stoner metal band from Lons-le-Saunier, blending southern rock warmth with stoner metal heaviness since 2018. Their approach brings a sun-baked, Jura-region flavor to groove-laden stoner metal.
Losing Hope is a depressive black metal project from São Paulo, Brazil, active since 2020. The band released the album "The Town Without Me", which includes the track "Erased" (released May 2021), continuing the Brazilian DSBM tradition with bleak, introspective compositions. Their music is self-released digitally via Bandcamp.
Swedish black/death metal band from Karlstad, merging two extreme genres since 2011. Their minimalist name captures the grief and deprivation at the core of their blackened death metal.
