Morbid Whisper plays a blunt, no-frills style of death metal drawing on the genre's classic foundations. Their 2021 debut full-length Habemus Mortem delivers eight tracks of aggressive, mid-paced death metal with an English-language lyrical focus on suffering and religious corruption.
Morbidade is a solo death metal project helmed entirely by Marco Aurélio, who handles all vocals, guitars, and bass. The self-titled debut, released in May 2020, channels old-school death metal through a lens of gore and splatter themes, keeping the approach raw and deliberately stripped down.
Morbo Chacaleitor is a death/thrash metal band from San Felipe, Chile. The band released two albums in quick succession: Crónicas Macabras in October 2019 and Inconsciente Asesino in September 2020, the latter a six-track record featuring Spanish-language tracks rooted in violent and urban themes.
Morbosus is a Buenos Aires black/death metal duo founded in July 2012 by guitarist Burner of the Cross and vocalist/drummer Infernal Commando Necromansy, drawing primary influence from the raw South American extreme metal of Sarcófago, Vulcano, and early Sepultura. The band released their debut album Black Death Commando in September 2014, a five-track record steeped in themes of Satanism and blasphemy.
Morbus Sacer plays a raw, uncompromising hybrid of black and death metal rooted in the South American underground tradition. Their 2017 demo, Demo MMXIII, was released on cassette through Aurora Australis and delivers four tracks — Iron Cleaves, Obliteration, Salve of the Enervated, and Non Serviam — with a crude, hostile production that suits the material.
Morferus is a death metal band from Banfield, Buenos Aires, whose lineup includes vocalist Leandro Cabrera, guitarists Mario Meza and Sebastian Almada, bassist Denis Camacho, and drummer Pablo Meza. Their 2018 album Argentina Psicópata — a ten-track record available on Spotify — takes its lyrical themes from notorious Argentine criminal figures and cases, including El Petiso Orejudo and Robledo Puch.
Morning Dead is a death doom solo project from Río Bueno, southern Chile, driven entirely by multi-instrumentalist Sebastian Ocampo. The project released its debut full-length, Desde el Otro Lado, in 2023.
Morrighon is a metal band from Paramaribo, Suriname, playing a blend of speed metal and melodic death metal with industrial and thrash influences. The five-piece group released their debut album Silence of Creatures in 2015, recorded and mastered at Rockland Studio in Paramaribo, making them one of the few metal acts to emerge from Suriname.
A one-man cosmic death metal project by Paulo Pinheiro Fornazza, known for his work in Fossilization and Jupiterian, Mortal Embodiment channels abyssal, end-of-universe horror through pummeling riffs indebted to Morbid Angel, Dismember, and Disembowelment. The debut release "Unbounded Emptiness" dropped in April 2023 and was distributed through multiple underground labels including Transylvanian Recordings, Nuclear Winter Records, and FDA Records.
