A California progressive death metal project formed in 2024, Sinthetik Sentienz blends the harmonic complexity and compositional ambition of progressive metal with the brutality and technical demands of modern death metal.
Punishing Brutal Death Metal from Cedar Hill.
Los Angeles, California's Sinyells have built a sound since 2019 that layers industrial metal's mechanized, abrasive textures into a metalcore framework, producing music that feels digitally hostile and physically aggressive in equal measure.
Modesto, California's Siom have been working in raw black metal since 2015, producing intentionally lo-fi, caustic material that prioritizes atmosphere and malevolence over any concession to modern production standards.
Phoenix, Arizona's Siphon have operated since 2004 at the intersection of thrash, groove metal, and hardcore, building a aggressive, crossover-inflected sound shaped by the desert Southwest's abrasive heavy music underground.
Dallas, Texas's Siphoned Life emerged in 2022 playing progressive death metal, joining a city with a strong technical metal tradition and bringing compositional complexity and shifting dynamics to their brand of extreme heaviness.
Fairfax, California's Siphoner is a young black metal project formed in 2024, working in the Bay Area's fertile underground scene and drawing on the raw, unadorned traditions of atmospheric and orthodox black metal.
A California atmospheric black/death metal act active since 2015, Sire melds the sweeping, post-influenced atmospherics of atmospheric black metal with the crushing brutality of death metal, crafting dense and layered sonic environments.
