Tartaros unleash thrash metal from Krnov in the Czech Republic's Silesian borderlands, formed in 2018 and channeling the raw, uncompromising energy of old-school thrash. Their riff-driven assault draws from the Teutonic thrash tradition while maintaining a distinctly Czech underground edge.
Tartarum bring symphonic and melodic death metal from Nicosia, Cyprus, one of the few extreme metal acts on the island blending orchestral grandeur with death metal ferocity. Formed in 2018, their sound marries sweeping symphonic arrangements with aggressive vocals and technical riffing.
Tartarus Depth is a melodic death/black metal band from Athens, active since 2014. Named after the deepest pit of the Greek underworld, their music channels Hellenic mythology through the extreme aggression of melodic death and black metal.
Atmospheric pagan black/folk metal project from Gomel, Belarus, formed in 2009 by D. Sytchev and A. Romanow, who handle vocals, programming, guitar, bass, and keyboards between them. Their sound evolved from early ambient and dungeon synth influences toward a fully realized atmospheric black metal style with pagan and nature-based themes, documented on their 2015 album Зов Древних (Call of the Ancients). The project is among the few Belarusian metal acts to meaningfully incorporate folk and pagan elements into an extreme metal context.
A solo black/gothic metal project from Upper Austria that was active from 1998 to 2006, Tartosgardh released albums including "Nebelleben," "Dragonstorms," and "Seelenopfer braucht der Tod." The project has since been rebranded as SeelenPuls, with the artist continuing under that name via a new Bandcamp presence and website at seelenpuls.at.
Tarvas is a folk metal band from Jyväskylä, Finland, formed in 2018. They weave Finnish folk traditions into heavy metal from the lake district.
Taser is a progressive stoner metal band from Madrid, Spain, formed in 2018. They blend progressive structures with stoner metal's heavy grooves.
Tassma is a thrash metal band from Seville, Spain, formed in 2021. They deliver aggressive thrash metal from the Andalusian capital.
Thrash metal band from Lugano, Ticino, active from 2009 to 2013 and drawing from horror and death imagery in both sound and theme. The band later continued under the name Winds of Disease before concluding their run, leaving behind a small but committed body of underground Swiss thrash. Their Lugano origins placed them in the Italian-speaking part of Switzerland, a region with its own distinct and underappreciated metal underground.
