New York groove metal project from the New York underground.
Groove metal project that migrated from Orlando to New York City. Their 2014 EP Thermobaric Waker — named after a type of explosive weapon — delivers concussive, rhythmically driven heaviness with the precision its military-grade title implies.
Jackson groove metal project from the New Jersey underground.
Denver progressive metal act exploring expansive compositions since 2012. Their full-length The Cold Expanse lives up to its title — vast, atmospheric prog metal that channels Colorado's mountainous geography into sweeping musical narratives.
Colorado Springs groove metal project from the Colorado underground.
North Carolina groove and heavy metal project with an impressive six releases since 2022. From Ceremony to Cybernetic Requiem, their prolific output spans the spectrum from traditional metal to futuristic heaviness.
