Wareham, Massachusetts thrash metal outfit Signs of Reign deliver the genre's classic combination of speed, aggression, and driving riff work, keeping the old-school flame burning in New England since 2017.
Pittsburgh's Signs of the Swarm are a deathcore act with deep roots in extreme metal, combining the genre's rhythmic breakdown-heavy framework with legitimately heavy death metal brutality in a city known for producing uncompromising heaviness since 2023.
Orvieto's Signs Preyer craft groove metal from the dramatic Umbrian cliff-top city since 2022. Their wordplay name and visually stunning hometown create an evocative context for their rhythmically punishing sound.
Senec's Signum Regis pair progressive and power metal from the Bratislava suburb since 2017. Their Latin name meaning "sign of the king" channels royal authority into technically ambitious compositions that have earned recognition across the European power metal scene.
Sigon forge speed, heavy, and black metal from the Finnish underground, combining three classic metal styles into a volatile fusion. Emerging in 2025, they bring multi-genre velocity to the Nordic scene.
Formed in 2025, Sigorspéd are a new entry in American black metal, a project whose name draws on archaic runic language and whose sound traffics in raw, primitive extremity from an undisclosed location.
New Jersey-based Sigourney combine the murky, feedback-drenched heaviness of sludge metal with the hazy, loping grooves of stoner metal, crafting a sound that is both oppressive and hypnotic since 2020.
Sigramaca play folk metal from the Mallorcan town of Capdepera, weaving Mediterranean folk traditions into heavy frameworks. Active since 2017, they bring Balearic folk heritage to the Spanish metal scene.
Sigyn deliver melodic death metal from Vantaa, drawing their name from the Norse goddess who stood faithful by Loki's side. Active since 2016, they bring mythological devotion to the Helsinki metropolitan melodeath scene.
