Raw Death / Black Metal out of Texas.

San Antonio black metal act formed in 2023, channeling raw, misanthropic energy from one of Texas's largest cities into a sound built on cold tremolo riffing and ceremonial malice. A newer entry into the Texas extreme underground, operating out of a city with a surprisingly fierce black metal contingent.

Denton, Texas's Wrought of Obsidian have been one of the more distinctive voices in the state's black metal underground since 2010, working a melodic black/death vein with sharp, often haunting guitar work that draws on Scandinavian melodic traditions without simply replicating them. Denton's art-heavy cultural scene has clearly left its mark on their approach.

Project of Imprecation vocalist David Herrera. Black/death/thrash/punk hybrid. Released a split with Hexella on Goat Throne Records.

Dallas black metal act Wyrm Chasm have carved out their space in the Texas underground since 2015, channeling cold riffs and grim atmosphere into a sound that fits within the raw, orthodox end of American black metal. Their work reflects the isolation and severity that defines the subgenre at its most serious.
