Coming out of the Norwalk/Whittier corridor in Los Angeles County, TerrorStorm have been running their black/thrash/speed metal assault since 2015, part of a thriving Southern California scene that has never stopped producing bands with this much raw velocity.

Norfolk, Virginia's Terrortoma arrived in 2022 with goregrind as their chosen weapon, the most medically specific corner of extreme metal and one that Norfolk's underground scene has rarely claimed for its own. They play with the requisite absurdist gore and blasting intensity the genre demands, but with the tightness of players who understand that speed requires discipline.

Terrorythm is a heavy metal/hard rock band from Lübeck, Germany, formed in 2016. They play driving heavy metal and hard rock from the Hanseatic coast.
