An Austin, Texas raw black metal act formed in 2022, Torture embraces lo-fi production and primitive aggression — deliberately corrosive and antagonistic in the tradition of underground USBM's most unpolished factions.
Houston, Texas death metal act Torture formed in 2022, contributing to the city's prolific extreme metal output with a direct, no-frills approach to the genre.

Houston's Towerlord, formed in 2024, ride the crossover thrash lane with a Texas attitude — tight, aggressive riffing that bridges hardcore punk's directness and thrash metal's speed, putting them squarely in Houston's tradition of no-nonsense underground heaviness.
