Teeth to the Flesh from Clermont-Ferrand deliver sludge metal and hardcore with the carnivorous intensity their dental name demands since 2019. Their Auvergne base, at the foot of the Chaîne des Puys volcanic range, provides suitably violent geology for their crushing sound.
Teetheater is a doom/drone metal project from Cork, Ireland, formed in 2018. They create slow, crushing sonic landscapes that merge doom's weight with drone's hypnotic, sustained intensity.
Zwolle's Teethgrinder combine the chaotic velocity of grindcore with the explosive aggression of powerviolence, creating short, devastating bursts of sonic extremity. Active since 2014, they are among the Netherlands' most intense practitioners of grind, despite their misleading power metal genre tag.
Teething is a grindcore/powerviolence band from Madrid, Spain, formed in 2012. They deliver chaotic, ultrafast extreme music from the Spanish capital.
Tefilla, taking their name from the Hebrew word for prayer, have been delivering thrash metal from Groningen in the northern Netherlands since 2010. Their approach channels classic thrash's urgency through tight, riff-focused compositions rooted in the genre's 1980s foundations.
Raw black metal and ambient project from Switzerland, formed in 2013. Operating under the Thessa Records banner, Tehessah channels lo-fi darkness through the raw black metal underground.
Louisville's Tehillah have been weaponizing blackened death metal since 2015, drawing on Kentucky's tradition of serious, no-frills heavy music and pushing it into the pitch-black extremes. The name — Hebrew for "praise" — sits in sharp irony against their caustic sound, which finds the sacred in the most violent sonic spaces.
Tehom from Paris have been crafting doom and sludge metal since 1996 under a name referencing the primordial abyss of ancient Near Eastern mythology. Nearly three decades of abyssal heaviness from the French capital make them one of the longest-running doom acts in France.
Teitan craft avant-garde black metal from the Rotterdam/Schiedam area, pushing the genre's boundaries through unconventional song structures and dissonant experimentation since 2021. Their willingness to dissolve black metal's traditional frameworks places them among the Dutch scene's more adventurous projects.
