A groove metal outfit from St. Joseph, Missouri, G.R.I.T have been grinding out heavy, riff-driven metal since 2008. Their name suggests exactly what they deliver: down-tuned grooves with a hard-nosed Midwestern attitude.
Fresh out of Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania, G.R.U.M. launched in 2023 with a vicious blend of death metal and goregrind. Short, brutal, and utterly remorseless.
An Atlanta-based progressive metal solo project that only came into existence in 2026, Gabriel Holbrook channels the forward-thinking spirit of modern prog into a personal, introspective sound.
Tulsa, Oklahoma's Gadgets Sons have been dragging metalcore through the sludge since 2017, pairing the emotional intensity of the former with the slow, oppressive weight of the latter.
Out of San Juan Capistrano, California, Gadnium brings together the twin-guitar attack of traditional heavy metal, the soaring hooks of power metal, and the speed of thrash — a triple-threat act that formed in 2022.
Named for the fallen angel of concealment, Charleston, South Carolina's Gadreel emerged in 2025 at the intersection of black metal's cold fury and doom's crushing desolation.
Dallas hardcore punk with death metal and powerviolence elements.
Dayton, Ohio's Gaia Weeps arrived in 2024 with a sludge metal sound as bleak and grinding as the Rust Belt landscape that shaped them — slow, corrosive, and unrepentant.
Baltimore's Gain Stages, active since 2020, occupy the slow, suffocating overlap between drone and doom — music built on sustained frequencies and the almost physical pressure of amplified silence.
