TLP is a black metal/grindcore band from Seville, Spain, formed in 2013. They fuse black metal's rawness with grindcore's chaotic velocity from Andalusia.
Tlön from Scotland craft avant-garde black metal named after Jorge Luis Borges's fictional planet from 'Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius' since 2024. Their literary reference drives compositions that construct alternative sonic realities, mirroring Borges's theme of imagined worlds overwriting the real.
