Humble, Texas death-thrash band delivering the kind of punishing riff-heavy metal that has long thrived in the Houston-area underground. Their music is aggressive, direct, and unashamedly brutal.
Austin black-death metal band drawing from the sinister traditions of both genres to produce dark, menacing extreme metal. They're part of Austin's growing underground metal community pushing past the city's rock reputation.
Sugar Land, Texas' Cryptic carve out a niche in the Houston area underground with death/thrash that channels the aggressive, riff-forward energy of the region's long metal tradition. Their sound is fast, hot, and unforgiving.
Gulf Coast grindcore featuring Insect Warfare drummer Frank Faerman.
Dallas, Texas death metal act Ctrl+Alt+Delete bring technical aggression and a sardonic edge to the Lone Star underground. Their riff-heavy approach is direct and punishing, with a nod to classic Texas metal ferocity.
San Antonio technical death metal/deathcore. Precision brutality.
Henderson, Texas death/grind act delivering fast, violent, and purposefully brief sonic assaults. Cursed Ibex merges the extremity of grindcore with the heaviness of death metal in grinding East Texas fashion.
