Formed in Winston-Salem, North Carolina in 2001, Glass Casket drew attention as much for their membership as their music, featuring Between the Buried and Me's Dustie Waring and Blake Richardson alongside vocalist Adam Cody. Their 2004 debut We Are Gathered Here Today on Abacus Recordings established them as a technically accomplished deathcore band, followed by Desperate Man's Diary in 2006 before the project went dormant. After years of inactivity, the band signed to Silent Pendulum Records in 2023 and released a self-titled EP, their first new material in seventeen years.

Lexington, Kentucky's Glass Coffin has been excavating the most frigid corners of black metal since 2014, building a sound that is both spectral and suffocating. There's a finality to their music that lives up to the name.

Connecticut's Glass Divide brings groove metal's locked-in chug and metalcore's emotional intensity together in a combination that hits hard and keeps moving. The Shelton outfit has been sharpening this dual-edged attack since 2017.

Kalamazoo's Glass God arrived in 2023 at the intersection of heavy metal's visceral punch and progressive metal's structural ambition, constructing songs that feel both grandiose and grounded. A young band with clearly large ideas.

Glass Killing Floor brings a blunt-force metalcore attack from the Louisville underground, pairing serrated riffing with the kind of emotional urgency that metalcore at its best has always traded in. They've been at it since 2019.

Out of Marshalltown, Iowa, Glass Ox forges a strange, compelling hybrid — black metal's cold hostility colliding with heavy metal swagger and a strong punk undercurrent. Since 2020 they've been one of the more ornery acts in the Midwest underground.

From the small town of Somerville, Tennessee, Glass Shrine has quietly cultivated a black metal sound built on atmosphere and sincerity since 2016. There's something devotional in their approach — fragile and fierce in equal measure.

The Oneonta, New York project Glass Skeleton Death March carries a name that promises drama and follows through — blending hard rock muscle with heavy metal bone into music that's both hook-laden and rough around the edges. They've marched forward since 2013.

Genre-defying Austin trio blending post-metal, black metal, sludge, and shoegaze. Signed to Pelagic Records.
