Voidred is a groove and thrash metal band from Assis, São Paulo state, formed by Rafael Mazo (vocals/guitar), Pietro Setti (lead guitar), Angelo Setti (drums), and Henrique Carpentieri (bass). Drawing from thrash, groove, death metal, and nu-metal, the band made their live debut at the Assis Rock Fest 2024 while developing their debut album.
Nizhny Novgorod's Voidrider delivers ripping thrash metal from the Volga region, channeling the velocity and precision of classic Bay Area thrash. Their high-energy riffing and aggressive delivery recall the golden age of 1980s thrash.
Voidripper is a stoner/doom metal band from Oberhausen, Germany, formed in 2026. They play crushing, riff-heavy stoner doom from the Ruhr Valley.
Tampa, Florida has a death metal legacy that looms over everything, but Voidrium staked their claim in 2023 playing raw, atmospheric black metal — a deliberate counter-current in a city synonymous with surgical brutality. There's an obsidian coldness to their approach, all harsh treble and howling frost, leaning into the corpse-paint orthodoxy of the genre with conviction. The Tampa provenance makes them a genuine outlier, which is exactly the point.
Makiivka's Voids Dweller delivers raw black metal from the Donetsk region, embracing lo-fi production and primitive recording techniques as essential elements of their aesthetic. Their uncompromising approach strips the genre to its most hostile, atmospheric core.
Voids of Vomit is a death metal band from Brescia, Italy, active since 2008. They play aggressive, filthy death metal from the Lombardy underground.
Bryan, Texas's Voidslime have been at it since 2017, building a catalog rooted in psychedelic doom metal — slow, narcotic riffs dissolving into lysergic haze before recongealing into something crushingly heavy. The psychedelic element isn't decorative; it fundamentally warps the doom formula, introducing detours into droning, meditative passages that make the eventual heaviness land harder. One of the more distinctive voices in the Texas heavy underground.
