Heavy stoner rock band from The Netherlands, with Spanish vocals. Also, they use winds on the mix, which make them a very original and fresh band.

Underrated Industrial metal/rock band, very similar to bands like Filter, NIN, KMFDM, and Skinny Puppy. I recommend this to fans of any of those bands. Please show this underrated band some love. They may not be the most popular in the industrial sub genres but I think their just as good.

Mostly Industrial and Electro-Industrial |

Very original in sound, especially in the prog realm. They're known to be aimed for fans of The Mars Volta, early Muse and Meshuggah. Prog rock with a blend of metal and pop sensibilities.

A Nice unique take on synth metal, I really Think they are a great up and coming act. Sounds like a lighter version of Type O Negative. Like Ton mixed with pet shop boys, so basically a lot of fun and catchy hooks.

Which part of "Usually we only add already accomplished bands with at least one full-length release" don't you understand? -> temporarily blacklisted. Feel free to give me a nudge as soon as they have released a full-length album. |

27.10.2022 - The Sentient
A (Anonymous Confederate Ensemble), or originally A (エース), was such a very short-lived band (2010-2014) as it was really unique. The easiest way to describe them is as a non-extreme version of Ne Obliviscaris, but way far more diverse and accessible. Of course they featured a violinist, who was the band's mastermind: he is the one who provided this kind of symphonic approach by the use of choirs, piano and even his own kind of operatic back-up singing (among many other exotic instruments). However, his violin is what set them really apart: its role is the same of a lead guitar — and a very, very busy one, with soloing and lots of arrangements! Given that their guitarist is already a shredder, you can expect lots of interesting interplays between violin & guitar: even piano and bass arpeggios take part in them :) Instead of descriptions, check this bunch:
A (エース) - Shiroi Akuma
A (エース) - Devil's Voice
A (エース) - Sakura
A (エース) - Goddess
A (エース) - Night Of The Knights
A (エース) - Mirror Of Terror
A (エース) - Black Butterfly
A (エース) - ELEMENTA ALCHEMICA (yep, 40' long!)

I've already blacklisted this band as A (Anonymous Confederate Ensemble) and I told you why. No need to retry suggesting it with another variation. x.X |

This band is a death metal hidden gem. This band deserves the attention of the members in this community even though they disbanded after releasing a self-titled EP back in 2011 which is a quite unique-sounding metal release.
25.04.2023 - Starvynth
"Usually we only add already accomplished bands with at least one full-length release." - We're not going to add a band that has less than 15 minutes of music under its belt. It's not even an EP, it's just a demo...
26.04.2023 - Yaniv
Dropping my line to skip checking it. |

Prettu unknown groove thrash band from oklahoma. They are very good and they have 1 studio album and it would be awesome to see them on this site. |

02.12.2024 - Dark Forever
Historic Portuguese metal band that blends a progressive gothic metal sound with doom. Almost 20 years after their acclaimed earlier works, they're back with a new album. |
|
02.12.2024 - Kursma
A grower of a band that has taken huge steps from sludgy, yet impressive demo to a dominating force in Finnish metal underground. This band will be well know soon, if the world is fair. |
|
02.12.2024 - RussellBoys
They were formed pretty recently and are still active. Very similar to Timeghoul and they even have a Timeghoul member. |
|
01.12.2024 - RussellBoys
They are a pretty cool German Hard Rock/Metal band. They are similar to KISS, I think, but nevertheless they deserve to be on this site. They have a really cool feel to their music. |

Superb tech death deserves a spot here... |
|
24.11.2024 - Blackcrowe
Faces of the Bog is a fascinating band that combines elements of sludge, doom, and psychedelic metal, immersive sound. Their music balance heavy, crushing riffs with ethereal and experimental elements, creating a unique atmosphere.
Their work embodies a creative and bold approach to metal, pushing genre boundaries while staying grounded in a raw and powerful energy. |

Cool Post-Rock band from USA, surprised they're not already here! |
