San Angelo, Texas deathcore and death metal act Ghaul applies the genre's slammed grooves and blast-heavy assault to a West Texas context — isolation, aggression, and brutality in equal measure. They've been carving out their niche since 2018.
Plano's Giant of the Mountain fuse progressive ambition with the raw extremity of black and death metal, building sprawling, technically demanding compositions that refuse to settle into any single genre. Their work since 2010 rewards patience and repeated listening.
Ripping Blackened Death Metal from Dallas/Fort Worth.
San Antonio's God Butcher combine technical death metal precision with the savagery of grindcore, producing music designed to overwhelm as quickly as possible. Active since 2023, they're among the most ferocious new arrivals in the Texas underground.
Houston's God Fearing Fuck fuse crust punk's anarchic grime with black and death metal extremity into a sound that's as confrontational as the name suggests. Since 2014, they've operated with a vicious, street-level intensity that sits outside any comfortable scene.
Heavy Symphonic Deathcore out of Texas.
Dynamic Progressive Metal from Frisco.
Blasphemous Black Metal from Spring/Houston.
Punishing Brutal Death Metal from San Antonio.
Enter the Inferno
