Houston's Collapsed Mainframe is a genre-agnostic extremity project drawing from black metal, death metal, doom, and grindcore simultaneously — a chaotic, sprawling sound that fits neatly into Houston's notoriously eclectic underground.
Glendale, California's Collusion blends classic heavy metal songwriting with progressive ambition, threading melodic sensibility through complex structures in a way that draws from both the LA scene's commercial roots and its progressive outliers.
Milwaukee black metal act Columbarium conjure cold, atmospheric darkness from the shores of Lake Michigan. Their music is austere and ritualistic, dwelling in shadows rarely lit by the Upper Midwest sun.
Germantown, Maryland's Coma Void blend post-black metal with funeral doom into something glacially beautiful and deeply sorrowful. Their music unfolds over long stretches of cold, atmospheric melancholy.
Chicago's Comaborn fuse black metal's icy menace with death metal's brutality into a hybrid that feels both vicious and atmospheric. The Windy City's underground provides fertile ground for their dark, aggressive sound.
Clementon, New Jersey's Come and Get It play black metal-tinged speed metal that's nasty and stripped-down, channeling the raw aggression of the early underground. Fast, mean, and unconcerned with polish.
Blackened crust/grind addressing border, religious, and governmental oppression in the El Paso region. Active 2010-2016 on Unholy Anarchy Records.
Maine's Commuted operate in the space where black metal's cold fury meets death metal's brutality, carving out something harsh and unforgiving from the remote New England wilderness. Their sound has the isolation of the state baked into it.
Compassion Fatigue grind through a corrosive intersection of black metal, death metal, and grindcore, channeling relentless hostility into short, caustic blasts of extreme noise.
