Little Rock, Arkansas's Tranquilo lean deep into the psychedelic end of stoner/doom, weaving hazy, slow-burning riff cycles with a trippy, meditative quality that sets them apart from heavier fare in the mid-South.
Tranqvillitas Maris specialize in the glacial extremes of funeral doom metal, stretching compositions into vast expanses of grief-laden slowness from their base in Luxembourg. Since 2016, the project's name — Latin for 'Sea of Tranquility' — has reflected the cosmic desolation embedded in their monolithic sound.
Trans Am is a heavy metal/hard rock band from Bonn, Germany, active since 1996. With three decades of activity, they are one of the most veteran heavy metal acts in the Rhineland underground.
Based in Millbrook, New York, this progressive metal act formed in 2017 and channels the genre's taste for intricate arrangements and dynamic shifts, occupying a space where technical ambition meets melodic accessibility.
Out of Rutherfordton, North Carolina, Transcendent have been exploring progressive metal's outer limits since 2015, building intricate, melody-forward pieces that reflect the contemplative character of their small-town Appalachian surroundings.
Transcendent Barrier is a doom/sludge/stoner metal band from Hamminkeln, Germany, formed in 2019. They deliver crushing, multi-layered doom with sludge and stoner metal influences.
Transcending the Flesh is a deathcore band from Canterbury, Kent, active since 2014. Their music delivers punishing breakdowns and extreme aggression from a city better known for its medieval cathedral than its brutal metal scene.
Transcension is a power/melodic death metal band from Greenock, Scotland, active since 2014. Their music combines the triumphant melodies of power metal with the aggressive edge of melodic death metal from the banks of the Clyde.
Transcomar is a sludge/post-metal band from Bochum, Germany, formed in 2023. They blend sludge metal's abrasive weight with post-metal's atmospheric expansiveness.
