Charlotte, NC's Columns grind through death metal with a ferocity and economy that leaves little room to breathe. Short bursts of controlled violence are their calling card in the Carolina underground.
Westerly, Rhode Island's Coma Hole bring a heavy dose of stoner doom to the small New England scene, lumbering through molasses-thick riffs with a baked, meditative quality. Their sound is slow, heavy, and pleasantly disorienting.
Portland, Oregon death-doom project Coma Void inhabit a bleak space where monstrous death metal savagery meets the crawling despair of doom. The Pacific Northwest's brooding atmosphere seeps into every slow, devastating note.
Germantown, Maryland's Coma Void blend post-black metal with funeral doom into something glacially beautiful and deeply sorrowful. Their music unfolds over long stretches of cold, atmospheric melancholy.
Dual-vocalist sludge metal/hardcore featuring Andrea Russi and Alyce H. Smith up front. A punishing addition to Houston's heavy underground.
Chicago's Comaborn fuse black metal's icy menace with death metal's brutality into a hybrid that feels both vicious and atmospheric. The Windy City's underground provides fertile ground for their dark, aggressive sound.

Boston's Combat Delta stitch together crust punk grime, death-doom misery, and grinding heaviness into a filthy, confrontational sound. They occupy the intersection of punk fury and extreme metal despair.
