Oakland's Harvestman is the project of Steve Von Till of Neurosis, applying his vision to folk and drone metal of eerie, meditative quality. Active since 2005, the project weaves ancient folk feeling through trance-inducing drone textures in ways that feel genuinely ritualistic.
Weirton, West Virginia's Harvist have maintained a long, solitary vigil in black metal's coldest corridors since 2001, a persistence that gives their sound the weathered quality of music made far from trends and audiences. Their isolation is part of the aesthetic.
San Diego's HarXson are a brand-new thrash metal outfit formed in 2025, carrying the torch for a genre the city has embraced since the 1980s. Still early in their existence, they bring the speed, aggression, and riff-forward approach that thrash has always demanded.
Crushing Death Metal from Houston.
Formed in Denver in 2024, Hash Bong deal in the kind of slow, hazy punishment that sits at the intersection of doom and stoner metal. Mile High lethargy runs through every riff, thick with fuzz and deliberate tempo.
Out of New Castle, Indiana, HaShem have been grinding out death metal since 2013 with a tenacious, no-frills ferocity. Small-town Midwest grit infuses their approach — no spectacle, just the relentless mechanics of the genre done right.
Pennsylvania's Hashgrinder emerged from the Poconos in 2015 fusing death metal's grotesque power with grindcore's short-fuse aggression. Their approach is blunt and efficient — songs that hit hard and end before the bruise has time to form.
Hashishian traffic in a slow-moving collision of drone, doom, and stoner metal that feels less like a song and more like sinking. Formed in 2023, the project leans into immense, meditative weight, letting each tone hang in the air long past its welcome.
Denver's Hashtronaut have been navigating the outer reaches of stoner and doom metal since 2020, blending cosmic heaviness with riff-forward songwriting. Their sound evokes weightlessness achieved through sheer volume — fuzz as propulsion.
