Berkeley, CA, US · 2007–present · active
Berkeley, California's Tholus have been developing their progressive death metal vision since 2007, fusing technical death metal's precision with progressive music's compositional ambition in a Bay Area scene with plenty of both traditions to draw from.
Saint-Lô, FR · 2006–present · active
Thomas Bressel from the Norman towns of Saint-Lô and Caen is a solo progressive, neoclassical metal, and jazz fusion project, blending classical virtuosity with metal intensity since 2006. Nearly two decades of multi-genre composition from Normandy have produced a unique fusion of conservatory technique and heavy music.
NC, US · 2011–present · active
Thomas Giles is the solo project of Tommy Giles Rogers Jr., vocalist and keyboardist for progressive metal band Between the Buried and Me, who has used the alias to explore territory incompatible with his main band's aesthetic. Pulse (2011) on Metal Blade Records launched the project formally, followed by Modern Noise (2014), Velcro Kid (2016), and Don't Touch the Outside (2018), each drawing on electronic music, synth-pop, and experimental rock over increasingly pure departures from metal. Rogers has described the project as a space for material that cannot fit within Between the Buried and Me, giving it a deliberately open-ended, genre-agnostic character.
Ocala, FL, US · 2014–present · active
Named after cinema's most infamous Texan, Ocala, Florida's Thomas Hewitt deal in sludge and doom metal — murky, down-tuned, and heavy enough to flatten furniture, with the rural dread their namesake implies.
Burbank, CA, US · 2013–present · active
Burbank, California's Thomas Warner is a solo melodic death metal project that has been active since 2013, channeling the genre's Scandinavian influences through a Southern California lens with carefully crafted arrangements.
Isernhagen, DE · 2011–present · active
Thomsen is a heavy/power metal band from Isernhagen, Germany, formed in 2011. They deliver classic German power metal with soaring vocals and twin-guitar attack.
Boonsboro, MD, US · 2016–present · active

Portland, OR, US · 2016–present · active
Portland, Oregon's Thonis have been delivering direct, unembellished death metal since 2016 — the city's fertile underground providing a home for a band more interested in brutality than scene politics.
Donostia-San Sebastián, ES · 2014–present · active
Thor from Donostia-San Sebastián in the Basque Country deliver heavy and power metal under the thunder god's banner since 2014. Their Norse deity name channels divine power through compositions that ring with the hammer-strike intensity of traditional European metal.
