Birmingham, Alabama deathcore and melodeath project. The paradoxical name — finding a cause worth ultimate sacrifice — adds existential weight to Magic City brutality.

Philadelphia post-metal project whose name pairs mortality with the tranquil shore. Atmospheric heaviness that finds darkness in beauty.

Minneapolis groove metal project. The name's imagery of burning aspirations channels Midwestern frustration through rhythmically driven heaviness.

AL · 2025–present · active
