Death metal project that migrated from Tampa to Pittsburgh to Columbus — three cities, each with deep metal roots. Named after the river of woe in Greek mythology.
Tampa/Denver heavy metal and prog project named after the Greek hero. The move from Florida to Colorado mirrors a trajectory from death metal ground zero to the Mile High City.
Achlyphos is a black metal project from Santa Rosa, California. Their 2020 full-length "Into Interdimensional Slumber Of Frozen Decay" delivers seven tracks of frigid, otherworldly black metal steeped in cosmic horror.
Ohio black metal project named after the Greek goddess of death mist. Atmospheric obscurity from the Buckeye State.
La Veta, Colorado black metal project. Medical terminology meets high-altitude isolation in one of Colorado's smallest mountain towns.
Las Vegas death metal project. The name — evoking absence of color — strips away the neon glitz to reveal desert darkness beneath.
Garden City, Long Island melodic death metal project. The biological term for a needle-like structure fits the precision of their Scandinavian-influenced approach.
Acid is an atmospheric black metal and shoegaze project from Rock Hill, South Carolina. Their 2023 output — an EP and the full-length "Debossed" — blends tremolo-picked black metal with shimmering shoegaze textures and dreamy atmospherics.
San Diego black metal project. The name's chemical violence makes no compromises from Southern California's extreme underground.
