Gulag is a Brazilian avant-garde and depressive black metal solo project based in São Paulo, with all instrumentation, vocals, and composition handled by Matheus Cornely. The project released Fantasia in 2023, described as a departure toward sober black metal and dungeon synth aesthetics, incorporating a cover of Nocturnal Depression's "Nostalgia." The project also released Death and Its Roses and the Black Flag single on Bandcamp.
Zen Garden was a short-lived avant-garde project from São Paulo that merged black metal, gothic, and noise elements into an experimental framework, releasing the recording Chained to Time in November 2019. The band's willingness to dissolve genre boundaries put them on the fringes of São Paulo's already eclectic underground metal scene before they split up.
