Springfield, Missouri's Gauntlet are a genuinely difficult band to pin down — their sound pulls from sludge, powerviolence, hardcore, and power metal simultaneously, creating something chaotic and genre-agnostic. Formed in 2022, they're proof that genre labels sometimes just get in the way.

San Diego's Genestealer lift their name from Warhammer 40,000 lore and channel that pulpy, sci-fi menace into short, violent grindcore songs since 2019. Fast, brutal, and over before you can process what happened.
