American raw black metal project Seele emerged in 2018 with a sound rooted in the lo-fi, corrosive aesthetic that defines the most uncompromising wing of the genre — the German word for "soul" suggesting a project concerned less with polish than with some deeper, harder-to-articulate extraction. Their location-less existence reinforces the isolationist character that raw black metal has always embraced.

Sempiternal Suffering formed in 2022 and practice raw black metal in the most stripped-down sense — minimal production, relentless atmosphere, and a deliberate rejection of anything approaching comfort or accessibility.

Anonymous by design, the music does all the speaking.

Sepulchrum emerged from Irving, Texas in 2023 trafficking in raw black metal of the most unadorned and primitive variety. Their music strips the genre down to its coldest essentials — corrosive tremolo, lo-fi production, and an atmosphere of total hostility — rooted in the underground black metal ethos that eschews refinement by design. They are part of a quietly growing raw black metal presence in the North Texas area.

A California-based one-person project formed in 2021, Sinn Demonisk fuses raw black metal austerity with crust punk's d-beat aggression, producing lo-fi, deliberately abrasive material with no interest in polish or compromise.
