Volymian is a melodic heavy metal/hard rock band from southern Finland, formed in 2016. They play accessible, melody-driven heavy metal and hard rock.
Fredrikstad's Vombat delivers no-frills, aggressive death metal with a youthful intensity that prioritizes energy and impact over technical showmanship. Their riff-driven approach channels the raw spirit of classic Scandinavian death metal.
Vomepotro is a brutal death metal band from São Paulo, Brazil, whose origins stretch back to the mid-1990s with early demos before a firm reformation. The band's album Zombie Gore Vomit was released in 2006 through German label Obscure Domain, and their follow-up Liturgy of Dissection was put out by US label Sevared Records after being recorded in June 2008.
Stockholm's Vometh brings crossover thrash energy to Sweden's capital, fusing hardcore punk's confrontational attitude with thrash metal's technical riffing. Their high-velocity approach channels the manic energy of classic crossover acts like D.R.I. and Suicidal Tendencies.
Vomi Noir is a death metal/goregrind band from Toulouse, France, formed in 2016. Their name meaning "black vomit," they deliver visceral extreme metal from southern France.
Detroit's Vomiphilia rose from the city's already abrasive underground in 2021, fusing death metal's grotesque anatomy with goregrind's fixation on bodily horror. Their music lands with the blunt force of a city that has never had much patience for subtlety — raw, disgusting, and thoroughly committed to extremity.
Vomirthos is a melodic black/death metal band from Mikkeli, Finland, formed in 2014. They deliver melodic extreme metal combining black and death metal's aggression.
Vomit is an ambient black metal project from the UK, formed in 2018. They blend atmospheric ambient textures with black metal's dark intensity.

New York's Vomit Fist have been hammering out short, brutal grindcore assaults since 2014, the kind of band that treats song length as a luxury they simply can't afford. Relentless blastbeats and serrated riffs delivered with zero ornamentation define their output — pure grind economy from a state with a long, vicious tradition of it.
Vomit Forth formed in Pittsfield, Massachusetts in 2018, playing a punishing form of brutal death metal informed by hardcore aggression and gore-themed lyrical content. After a series of self-released demos and the Northeastern Deprivation compilation (2019), the band signed to Century Media Records and released their second album Terrified of God in October 2024, cementing their place in the current wave of brutal death metal.
