Furious Heavy / Thrash Metal from San Antonio/Austin.
Punishing Brutal Death Metal from San Antonio.
San Antonio's Eviscerated bring the bone-crushing weight of brutal death metal to the Texas underground, carrying on since 2008 with a no-frills commitment to extremity. Rooted in the tradition of crushing American BDM, their sound is built on dense downtuned riffing and cavernous vocal brutality that echoes through the Alamo City's heavy music scene.
Houston's Evokation are a thrash metal outfit forged in 2016 with a clear debt to the old-school Bay Area and Teutonic traditions, filtered through the Texas heat. They traffic in fast, riff-forward aggression with shouted vocals and breakneck tempos that keep the spirit of classic thrash alive in the Bayou City underground.
Fierce Melodic Death / Symphonic Metal from Fort Worth.
Funeral doom duo of Shane Elwell and Ryan Wilson, who also collaborate in Pneuma Hagion. Released a split with Wilson's solo project The Howling Void.
Houston, Texas's Execrable Divinity have been representing the brutal death metal underground since 2012, part of a city with a surprisingly deep history in extreme metal. Their sound is relentlessly heavy — dense, slam-adjacent brutality rooted in the American BDM tradition, with a name that signals their comfort operating at the genre's most extreme and blasphemous edges.
Devastating Brutal Death Metal from Colorado Springs, Colorado (early); Houston, Texas (later).
