Camas, Washington's Muerte has spent over a decade weaving melodic death metal hooks into metalcore aggression, delivering a sound that carries genuine heaviness without sacrificing songwriting craft.
A Washington state melodic black metal project formed in 2020, Muerteblanca blends icy atmosphere with melodic sensibility, drawing on the Scandinavian second-wave tradition while carving out its own cold, introspective voice.
Las Vegas black/death metal act with roots stretching back to 2007, Muggle Death Camp brings a caustic, no-frills extremity to the desert city's metal underground, blending raw black metal savagery with death metal's structural brutality.
Virginia Beach veterans Mugwart have been grinding out sludge and stoner metal since 2003, building a reputation on thick, fuzzed-out riffs and the kind of slow-burn heaviness that rewards patient listeners.
Portland, Maine's Mugwort is a sludge-doom project that trades in oppressive atmosphere and crawling tempos, reflecting the cold, isolated quality of the Northeast in every slow, crushing note.
Austin raw punk delivering frantic, politically charged hardcore sung exclusively in Spanish.
Blackened death metal released through Redefining Darkness Records. Debut EP 'Misery of One' dropped in 2022.
Cleveland death metal band Mulciber emerged in 2022 with a straight-ahead brutality that fits the Rust Belt city's no-nonsense approach to extreme metal, emphasizing punishing riffs over ornamentation.
Oakland death metal band Muldrotha, named for the MTG character and formed in 2019, brings Bay Area aggression to the genre with a grim, relentless approach that channels the East Bay's long lineage of extreme underground acts.
