Birmingham, Alabama black metal project. The Latin-flavored name evoking 'toward pain' channels Deep South darkness.
Adom creates sludge and doom metal from Vicenza since 2013, layering crushing heaviness over Palladio's architectural city. Their Hebrew-derived name meaning 'red' or referencing the first human speaks to the primal, earth-bound quality of their Veneto-born heaviness.
Adon is a California black metal project that emerged in 2020 with their EP "Arkane." Little is known about the entity behind the project, which channels occult themes through four tracks of atmospheric black metal.

Adoniram channels atmospheric black metal and ambient from Izhevsk in Udmurtia as of 2025. Named after the Masonic legendary figure, they bring esoteric-fraternal mysticism to their Ural-born atmospheric approach.

Adonis DNA are a black metal and ambient project from Prague, Czech Republic, whose music incorporates doom and psychedelic elements alongside more conventional black metal textures. Their album "Until Age Eleven She Knew Nothing of Christ," released in March 2015, exemplifies the band's willingness to operate outside the orthodoxies of the Czech underground black metal scene.
Adoperta Tenebris channels black metal from Nantes since 2017, their Latin name meaning "covered in darkness" perfectly describing the cloak of obscurity that envelops their sound. The project contributes to the Loire-Atlantique capital's robust extreme metal scene.
Adora is a melodic death metal and metalcore band from Irvine, California that has been steadily building a body of work since their earliest demos in the mid-2010s. With two full-lengths — "...of Serpentine Forces" and "Ophidian Kult" — alongside EPs, demos, and a split, the band has refined a serpent-themed aesthetic married to tight melodic death metal riffing with metalcore intensity.
