Vienna-based Taurisca is a female-fronted melodic death/folk metal project with strong pagan and medieval influences, drawing on the ancient Taurisci culture that once inhabited the eastern Alps. Their music blends Gothenburg-influenced melodic death guitar work with folk instrumentation and lyrical themes rooted in pre-Christian Central European mythology.
Beilen-based Taurus channel pure thrash metal aggression from the quiet northern Dutch province of Drenthe, proving that blistering speed and razor-sharp riffs need not originate from major metropolitan areas. Active since 2012, they bring old-school thrash intensity to an unlikely locale.
Taurus Inferno from Tuscany deliver heavy metal channeling the infernal power of their bull-of-hell concept since 2023. Their Tuscan base adds Renaissance grandeur to their classic metal assault.
Tauval from Verona craft black metal from the city of Romeo and Juliet since 2019. Their compositions channel the darker undercurrents of the Veneto through atmospheric compositions.
Tavaron is a black metal project from Duisburg, Germany, active since 2010. They deliver atmospheric black metal from the Ruhr Valley underground.
Austin's Taverner occupy the volatile space where metalcore collides with powerviolence and grindcore, a combination that makes their music as chaotic as the city's music scene is eclectic. Formed in 2016, they channel the blistering pace of powerviolence into song structures that occasionally open up just long enough to crush you with a metalcore breakdown before pulling the floor out again.
Taxidermia from Avellino in Campania deliver death metal with the specimen-preserving precision their natural-history name demands since 2023. Their southern Italian base channels the art of stuffing and mounting the dead.
Tayo is a heavy metal band from Barcelona, Spain, formed in 2018. They play traditional heavy metal from the Catalan capital.
Taüt is a death metal band from Barcelona/Olesa de Montserrat, Spain, formed in 2021. They deliver crushing death metal from the Catalan underground.
