Minneapolis, Minnesota's Coffin Rites blend black, death, and thrash metal into a savage underground hybrid drawing from all three genres' most vicious impulses. They're a strong entry in the Twin Cities' consistently strong extreme metal scene.
Atlanta death metal act Coffin Sore channel the rotting, mid-paced brutality of classic OSDM into coarse, no-frills slabs of gore-drenched punishment.
Bowling Green, Kentucky's Coffin Stench play filth-encrusted death metal that takes its cues from the primitive aggression of early '90s acts, burying listeners under thick riffs and guttural vocals.
North Charleston's Coffin Syrup smash death metal and grindcore into one noxious concoction — short, violent blasts of sonic rot delivered at surgical speed and maximum disgust.
Fort Wayne's Coffin Witch unleash brutal death metal with an emphasis on sheer physical force, piling on pulverizing riffs, guttural vocals, and blast beats into a dense wall of carnage.
COG deliver a corrosive fusion of death and sludge metal — downtuned, grinding riffs collide with visceral intensity in music that prioritizes ugliness and weight above all else.
New York's Cognitive Collapse push technical death metal into experimental territory, warping song structures and tonality into something disorienting and deeply unsettling.
Minneapolis's Cognitive Dissonance ride a thrash and grindcore collision course — tightly wound songs explode with short-fuse aggression and a political edge that has defined their underground run.
