Catanduva, BR · 2021–? · disbanded
Barks of Apocalypse was an experimental death metal/grindcore one-man project from Catanduva, São Paulo, active 2021–2023. Created by Billy Grind — who also runs the underground label Podreira Records — the project replaced human vocals with the recorded barks of his three dogs, directly inspired by the US band Caninus; the 2021 full-length Canis Lupus Familiaris combined grinding death metal riffwork with this canine-vocal concept.
Ceara, BR · 2024–present · active
Bastiel is a black/death metal trio from Ceará, founded by Thanatuz and Siffus as a garage project rooted in first-wave black metal before evolving into rawer, more extreme territory. Their EP Descendant of Moloch draws from Beherit, Archgoat, Blasphemy, and Brazilian touchstones Sarcófago and Mystifier, channeling occultism and existential esotericism through deliberately primitive, anti-melodic aggression.
Recife, BR · 2012–? · disbanded
Beast Conjurator was a Lovecraftian death metal band from Recife, Brazil, active from 2012 to around 2016. Founded by Sphynx and C Le Sorcier, then expanded with The Dunwich Horror, the band built their identity around H.P. Lovecraft mythology and occult themes, releasing the "First Conjuration" demo (2012) and the "Born from the Darkest Entrails" EP (2013). The posthumous full-length "Summoned to the Abyss" appeared on CD via Dying Music in 2017 after the band dissolved.
São Paulo, BR · 2015–? · disbanded
Beegar was a death metal band from São Paulo, Brazil, active in the late 1990s. The five-piece — featuring dual guitars alongside a rhythm section and vocalist João — released two underground demos: "Otiumcule" (1997) and "Choose Your Vitals" (1999), the latter containing the tracks "The List: Choose Your Vitals" and "Saint Rape." The band operated entirely within São Paulo's underground circuit before dissolving, leaving only demo recordings as their legacy.
Salvador, BR · 2023–present · active
Beelzeebubth is a black/death metal project from Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, linked to the Brazilian Ritual Records underground network. The project blends war metal aggression with politically-charged lyrical themes — historical atrocities, indigenous spirituality, and environmental destruction rendered through a satanic lens. Their 2020 EP "Sæculum Obscurum (Regressing More Than A Generation)" featured guest vocalists from Acheron (Vincent Crowley), Masacre (Alex Okendo), and Inquisition (Dagon), with Beelzeebubth handling all songwriting and production.
São Paulo, BR · 2024–present · active
Begotten Terror is a death metal band from São Paulo, Brazil, formed in 2024. An independent act operating in São Paulo's active extreme metal underground, the band channels Satanic themes through their death metal approach, carrying on the city's long tradition of brutal underground death metal.
Salvador, BR · 2018–present · active
Death metal band from Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, drawing on themes of serial killers, occultism, and death. Their debut album The Awakening of Madness was recorded at Revolusom Studio in Salvador with lyrics by Fabricio Pazelli and Marcelo Almeida, showcasing a straightforward, punishing approach to the genre rooted in the Bahian extreme metal scene.
Atibaia, BR · 2020–present · active
Death metal band from Atibaia, São Paulo state, Brazil, tracing roots to an earlier project called Eviscerate Lies. Their debut album Morbid Blood was recorded at Pró-Sound Studios in Atibaia and released in 2015, mixing gore and sociopolitical themes with blunt, no-frills death metal drawn from the interior São Paulo underground.
Barbacena, BR · 2004–present · active
Black/death metal band from Barbacena, Minas Gerais, Brazil — not to be confused with the Polish act of the same name. The Barbacena Behemoth are part of a lineage of extreme metal from the city that stretches back to the early 1990s underground, and they operate in the raw, Satanic-themed tradition of South American black and death metal.
