Stockholm's Seventh Dimension pair progressive and power metal from the Swedish capital since 2013. Their extra-dimensional name channels the exploration of planes beyond human perception into technically ambitious compositions.
One of the longer-running death metal acts in the Minneapolis area, Brooklyn Park's Seventh Gate have been active since 1998 — long enough to have lived through the genre's many shifts while remaining committed to a hard-hitting, traditionally rooted death metal sound. Their longevity speaks to a band that has outlasted trends by staying true to the fundamentals.
Seventh Gate have been crafting epic power and progressive metal from Recklinghausen since 1998, making them veterans of the Ruhr Valley's melodic metal scene. Their nearly three decades of activity have produced elaborate, ambitious compositions that channel the grandeur of European power metal.
Seventh Hell is a heavy/thrash metal band from Iquique, Chile, formed in 2014 out of the earlier project SevenEleven, which had been active since 2009. The band released their debut recording, the demo Mal Necesario, in 2016, and remain an independent, unsigned act.
Intense Symphonic Metal out of Texas.
Baltimore's Seventh Seal have been developing their progressive metal vision since 2014, tapping into that city's diverse and experimentally inclined underground to push against the edges of the genre. Their music navigates the tension between structure and improvisation, trading in long-form compositions that blend metallic heft with progressive rock's expansiveness.
Heavy metal band from Santo André, São Paulo, formed in 1995 and active again from 2023 after a period of inactivity. The band released three albums: Premonition (2001), Days of Insanity (2007), and Mechanical Souls (2014), the last of which was issued by Shinigami Records; their current lineup includes vocalist Leandro Caçoilo and guitarist Tiago Claro.
Varberg's Seventh Sight deliver death metal from the Halland coast since 2021. Their supernatural-perception name channels extrasensory awareness into compositions of Atlantic-coast extremity.
A New York stoner metal project active since 2010, Seventh Void trade in the slow-burning, heavily fuzzed groove that defines the genre — thick, hypnotic riffs built to rumble at high volume and low speed. Their Bandcamp presence suggests a band that remains committed to the underground, releasing music on their own terms.
