Denver groove and nu-metal band formed in 2022, blending down-tuned, syncopated riffing with the kind of aggressive pocket rhythms that defined the late '90s heavy scene. Their sound carries the gritty edge of Colorado's DIY metal circuit.
Philadelphia black metal project active since 2020, channeling raw, atmospheric hostility through cold production and unrelenting blastbeats. Their Bandcamp presence places them firmly in the American underground black metal tradition.
Portland death-grind trio active since 2018, fusing the blunt brutality of grindcore with death metal heft and hardcore's confrontational attitude. Their name and approach are blunt instruments by design.

Glasgow, Kentucky heavy metal band that came together in 2023, playing traditional metal with regional grit and a straightforward hard-hitting style. One of the rare metal outfits flying the flag for small-town Kentucky.
Treblinka formed near Stockholm, Sweden in 1987 as the founding vehicle for Johan Edlund, playing raw black/death metal under pseudonyms and releasing the single "Severe Abomination" in 1989. The band recorded material for an album during this period before Edlund renamed the project Tiamat in advance of their debut Sumerian Cry (1990), which incorporated reworked Treblinka compositions. As a historical entity, Treblinka represents the earliest phase of what would become one of Scandinavia's most stylistically adventurous metal bands, operating in the primitive intersection of black and death metal that defined the underground at the close of the 1980s.
Trebuchet is an epic black/heavy metal band from Odense, Denmark, formed in 2012. Named after the medieval siege weapon, they deliver epic, grandiose metal.
Santa Rosa, California speed and thrash metal band that has been at it since 2016, leaning into the tighter, faster end of the thrash spectrum with a nod to first-wave speed metal ferocity. A decade-long presence in the Bay Area's underground metal circuit.
