A Nashville psychedelic doom outfit formed in 2009 by Belmont University students, Clorange channeled Black Sabbath, Sleep, and Electric Wizard into a hazy, riff-heavy sound. They released the album Instinct in 2012 before disbanding the same year.

Dayton, Ohio's Close the Hatch have been building their atmospheric doom-post-metal sound since 2011, occupying a sonic space where Electric Wizard's psychedelic weight meets the post-metal grandeur of Neurosis. Their 2020 album Modern Witchcraft, released on Red Moth Records, stands as one of their most fully realized statements.

Brooklyn's Clothesline draw on doom, stoner rock, and wrestling-fueled attitude from a lineup featuring members of Reign of Zaius and End of Hope. Their slow-burn approach captures the grimy, unhurried heaviness of the New York underground.

Denver's Cloud Catcher have been crafting psych-drenched heavy rock and doom since 2013, straddling the worlds of cosmic stoner rock and traditional doom with an accessible, riff-forward approach. Signed to Totem Cat Records for their second album Trails of Kozmic Dust, they remain one of Colorado's finest heavy exports.

A St. Louis stoner-doom two-piece, Cloud Machine have built a tireless live reputation while refining a sound that pits driving, Sabbath-influenced riffs against progressive sludge arrangements. Their 2025 LP Chill'um All, produced by Converge's Kurt Ballou, marks a significant leap forward.

Indianapolis's Cloud of Souls, the studio project of Chris Latta and Tucker Thomasson, brew classic black, doom, and epic heavy metal into a sound that evokes Bathory's Blood Fire Death meeting Saint Vitus. Their albums A Fate Decided and A Constant State of Flux demonstrate a consistently ambitious vision within the blackened doom space.

New York's Clouds Taste Satanic are a fully instrumental post-doom unit that blends stoner rock, psychedelia, and Bongripper-style heaviness into extended, hypnotic compositions. Active since 2013 and releasing prolifically, including a 2026 live-in-studio album through Kinda Like Music, they've become one of Brooklyn's most distinctive doom exports.

Oakland's Cloudstone operate at the intersection of black metal and doom, crafting a sound rooted in the Bay Area's rich tradition of heavy underground music. Their music leans into atmosphere and darkness without sacrificing weight.
