Out of Loveland, Colorado, Tierkrieger has been carving a path through blackened death metal since 2017, blending black metal's spectral menace with death metal's physical brutality into something appropriately hostile and elemental. The project embodies the isolated, uncompromising quality often found in Colorado's extreme underground.
Tierra de Elefantes is a progressive stoner metal duo from Haedo, Argentina, built around brothers Luciano Rey on vocals, guitar, and bass, and Nicolás Rey on vocals and drums. The band released their debut full-length "A Través del Sol y la Sombra" in 2015, establishing a heavy, psych-inflected sound within the active Argentine underground stoner scene.
Tierra Gris is a progressive groove metal and rock band from Lampa, Chile, formed in 2016. The band features vocalist and bassist Violeta Terán alongside guitarists Francisco Varas and Mauricio Osses, and released their self-titled debut full-length in 2022.
Nashville's Tierra Vacía bring symphonic grandeur into the unlikeliest of country music capitals, pairing orchestral arrangement with metal's power and drama since their 2023 formation. The Spanish name — meaning "empty land" — hints at the cinematic and melancholic qualities running through their sound.
Tietæne is a heavy metal/hard rock band from Amberg, Germany, formed in 2025. They play classic heavy metal and hard rock with a modern edge.
Hailing from Hammondsport in upstate New York, Tiffani Travesty blend melodic death metal's twin-guitar interplay with gothic metal's dark romanticism, forming a contrast between beauty and brutality that defines their approach since 2022. It's a style that draws equally from Scandinavian melodeath and the gloom of classic gothic metal.
Tiffany for Breakfast is a deathcore band from Erfurt, Germany, formed in 2015. They deliver punishing deathcore with an ironic juxtaposition of their name against crushing breakdowns.
One-person atmospheric black metal and crust project from São Paulo, founded in April 2017, whose lyrics are explicitly anarchist, anti-fascist, anti-racist, and pro-LGBTQ. The debut album Desesperança Crônica was released on May 13, 2017 as a free download; subsequent releases include the 2021 album Mito, você é o próximo..., with the project's sound evolving from raw crust punk toward atmospheric black metal over time.
Tiger Battalion is a death metal band from the Bergstraße area of Germany, formed in 2023. They play aggressive, militaristic death metal from the Hessian wine region.
