Las Vegas melodic death metal outfit Mynas has been active since 2010, blending the hook-laden guitar work of the Swedish melodeath tradition with the heat and isolation of the Nevada desert, crafting music with both melody and menace.
San Diego's Myoldlovelost blends post-black metal's shimmering atmosphere with ambient undercurrents and a nostalgic emotional weight, creating soundscapes that feel as much like grief processed through texture as they do conventional black metal.
Progressive power metal band from North Haven, Connecticut, Myopia marries the soaring melodic ambition of power metal with progressive metal's structural complexity, building songs that balance technical sophistication with anthemic, memorable delivery.
Washington State's Myopic defies easy categorization by drawing equally from sludge, black, death, and doom metal, blending these traditions into a dense, multi-layered extremity that has evolved steadily since the band's formation in 2011.
Baltimore's Myopic brings progressive sensibilities to death metal, combining the genre's aggression with shifting song structures and compositional depth, reflecting the mid-Atlantic city's eclectic and technically ambitious underground metal scene.
Waukegan, Illinois death metal band Myopic Void has been in the trenches since 2016, delivering straight-ahead death metal shaped by the Great Lakes region's underrated extreme metal underground.
Emerging from the remote environs of Luna Lake, Arizona in 2017, Myotis Occultus practices raw black metal with the isolation and esotericism that the name implies, stripping production to bare minimum in service of pure, malevolent atmosphere.
Dallas black metal act Myraak, formed in 2017, channels the cold and the sinister through a Texas lens, contributing to the Lone Star State's growing underground black metal presence with grimly focused compositions.
Bethlehem, Pennsylvania's Myrdød — whose name invokes death in a Nordic register — fuses black and death metal into a relentless, caustic hybrid that has pushed forward since 2020 with the kind of uncompromising darkness the name suggests.
