Sabbath-worship heavy psych doom formed in 2018. Released multiple albums through Ripple Music including the live album 'Dead Alive in Texas'.
Arlington · 2019–present · active
Arlington, Texas power and heavy metal band Thunderchild formed in 2019, channeling classic metal energy into the DFW area's active scene with a focus on soaring hooks and the kind of confident, guitar-driven delivery the style demands.
Austin · 2015–present · active
An Austin, Texas band active since 2015, Thunderkief sink deep into the psychedelic fog where stoner and doom metal overlap, building slow-burning songs that unfold under layers of distortion and haze. They're a product of Austin's fertile heavy underground, carrying the city's tradition of loud, unhurried music played with real conviction.
Houston · 2013–present · active
Ferocious Black / Thrash Metal from Houston.
Clute · 2004–? · disbanded
Ruthless Black / Death Metal from Clute.
Houston · 2020–present · active
A Houston, Texas black metal band formed in 2020, Thy Kingdom Burn operates within the city's surprisingly active extreme underground, channeling the raw, anti-religious hostility of the genre with a Texas-sized bluntness. Their name signals a contempt for sacred institutions that sits comfortably alongside Houston's broader tradition of uncompromising extreme music.
Lubbock · 2017–present · active
Lubbock, Texas death metal outfit Thy Kingdom Denied have been active since 2017, carrying the torch for brutality in a West Texas city more associated with country music than extreme metal. Their isolation from the major Texas metal centers of Dallas and Houston seems to have sharpened rather than softened their approach.
Austin · 2022–present · active
Formed in Austin, Texas in 2022, Thy Kingdom Scum sit at the rowdy crossroads of heavy metal, thrash, and punk, channeling a street-level aggression that owes as much to the DIY punk circuit as to the metal tradition. Metal Archives notes their punk influence explicitly, and the name itself reads like a statement of contempt for the powerful made with raised fists and distorted guitars.
Austin · 1999–present · active
Austin instrumental psych/stoner rock trio performing improvised heavy jams since 1999.
