Oak Creek, Wisconsin's Myriad is a heavy metal act with roots stretching back to 1996, representing the long-haul dedication of the upper Midwest's underground scene with a traditional heavy metal approach honed over decades.
New York's Myriad, also a veteran act dating to 1996, pursues progressive metal with the genre's characteristic emphasis on shifting time signatures, extended compositions, and technical guitar work that rewards close, attentive listening.
Gulfport, Mississippi death metal band Myrkridia has been grinding since 2012, bringing Gulf Coast brutality to a genre rarely associated with the Deep South and building a steady underground presence in one of the country's more underrepresented metal regions.
A New York-based project founded in 2014, Myrkur weaves atmospheric black metal with folk and post-metal textures, layering ethereal vocals over icy tremolo riffs and acoustic passages to create a sound that is both harrowing and hauntingly beautiful.
A Georgia black metal act founded in 2014, this incarnation of Myrkur pursues a rawer, more stripped-down approach to the genre, favoring cold, unadorned riffing and a grim aesthetic over the folk and atmospheric flourishes of its New York namesake.
A newly formed black metal outfit from Lampe, Missouri, Myrkweb emerged in 2025 with the murky, isolated aesthetic that the Ozarks backwoods tend to inspire — raw production and misanthropic conviction at the core of their sound.
Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Myrkwisaidaz formed in 2022 and practice a brand of black metal that draws on Germanic tribal imagery, channeling archaic hostility through buzzing riffs and ritualistic intensity.
Frigid Black Metal from San Antonio.
Based in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, this Myrmidon started as a thrash metal act before evolving toward death metal, tracing a trajectory from aggressive, riff-forward speed to heavier, more brutally refined territory since their 2023 formation.
