Spring Hill, Florida heavy metal band delivering classic metal riffs with a nod to the genre's foundational power and melody. They carry the torch for traditional heavy metal in Florida's underground scene.
Minneapolis death-doom outfit Cobra Czar pair crushing low-end heaviness with groove-driven swagger and mid-paced menace. They occupy a filthy intersection of groove metal and death metal that hits hard in the Twin Cities underground.
Portland, Oregon stoner metal band Cobra Thief deal in hazy riffs, pounding rhythms, and the kind of heavy psych grooves that flourish in the Pacific Northwest underground. Their music carries the loose, fuzzed-out energy that defines the stoner metal circuit.
Buffalo, New York stoner metal unit Cobra Tits bring a thick slab of fuzz and irreverent attitude to the upstate New York heavy music scene. Their no-frills approach leans into bong-crusted grooves and blunt-force riffage.
Denver groove and stoner metal band Cobranoid blend sludgy bottom-end with locked-in rhythmic punch and an attitude to match. They're a reliable fixture in Colorado's heavy underground, serving up beefy riffs with swagger.
Oakland, California thrash and heavy metal band Cobweb pull from the Bay Area's legendary thrash tradition while keeping one foot in classic metal territory. Their music has the gritty, street-level intensity that Oakland's underground is known for.
Muncie, Indiana's Cocaine Culture are a genre-defying chaos engine drawing from black, death, doom, sludge, and alternative metal in equal and unsettling measure. The result is a dense, disorienting sound that refuses easy categorization.
Thibodaux, Louisiana sludge metal band Cocaine Sermon channel the swampy, oppressive heaviness that southern sludge does best. Their music is thick with bayou rot and the kind of slow-burning dread that the Gulf South breeds naturally.
Seattle brutal death and slam metal band Cocksmack deliver punishing low-tuned brutality with the guttural, bowel-shaking intensity that slam devotees crave. They're a nasty entry in the Pacific Northwest's surprisingly strong brutal death underground.
