Hailing from Paducah, Kentucky, Throne of Legions have been weaving melodic black metal atmosphere into death metal ferocity since 2011, crafting a blackened death sound rooted in sweeping tremolo riffs and punishing rhythms. The band's melodic sensibility sets them apart from the sparse Kentucky metal underground.
Operating out of Kalispell, Montana, Throne of Malediction have pursued an uncompromising black metal path since 2011, channeling the isolation and severity of Big Sky Country into cold, misanthropic compositions. Their sound sits squarely in the orthodox black metal tradition with no concession to melody or accessibility.
Savage Gothic / Groove / Death Metal out of Texas.
Providence, Rhode Island's Throne of Saturn deal in the slow and heavy end of the sonic spectrum, fusing stoner rock fuzz with doom metal's ceremonial weight since 2014. Their sound draws naturally from New England's dense psychedelic and heavy underground, favoring low-tuned drone and cosmic riff repetition.
Devastating Deathcore from San Antonio.
Throne of the Black Moon emerged from Spokane, Washington in 2019 with a focus on atmospheric black metal, layering dense tremolo passages and cavernous ambience to evoke the isolation of the inland Pacific Northwest. The band leans into the post-black metal tradition of blending harsh, raw black metal with expansive, cinematic textures.
Nashville's Throne of the Falcon bring a classic heavy metal sensibility to a city better known for country and Americana, channeling timeless riff craft and clean vocal melodies into their work since forming in 2019. Their sound is rooted in the older heavy metal tradition rather than the modern hard rock that permeates Music City.
Laredo, Texas border city black metal act Throne ov Blood have been operating since 2007, embodying the raw and sinister aesthetic that the 'ov' in their name signals — deliberately lo-fi, occult-tinged, and indifferent to polish. Their longevity in one of Texas's most isolated music scenes speaks to a genuine dedication to the black metal underground.
Salem, Oregon's Thrones is essentially a solo project that has operated since 1996 under the creative direction of one of the American underground's most idiosyncratic figures, building an enormous bass-driven drone and doom sound that is utterly its own thing. Slow, cavernous, and hypnotic, Thrones occupies a unique corner of the heavy music spectrum where doom, noise, and experimental music collapse into a single suffocating mass.
