Melanthropy emerged from Curitiba's underground with their debut album "Happiness Remains Shattered" (February 2023), a DSBM record written by multi-instrumentalist Lucas 'Raaski' Rafalski and vocalist Gabriel Henrique that maps the interior landscape of hopelessness through slow-burning, oppressive black metal. The project sits comfortably within the tradition of atmospheric DSBM without straying far from stripped-down, emotionally suffocating song structures.

A Brazilian atmospheric and depressive black metal project that released its debut EP The Philosophy of Death in July 2024, a four-track, roughly thirteen-minute statement combining raw black metal with ambient textures and unexpected melodic passages that drift into near-Oriental tonalities. Norwegian-language track titles and an overarching fixation on darkness and existential despair place the project squarely within the DSBM tradition while hinting at a broader sonic ambition for future releases.

Mepth is the solo project of Maycon Douglas, a one-person exploration of depressive black metal that bleeds into atmospheric, shoegaze, and sadcore territory. Albums like 'Raízes da Agonia' (2025), 'Grito do Silêncio', and 'Entre ruínas de mármore' chart an inward course through loneliness, despair, and existential horror with densely layered, melancholic arrangements.

A project embedded in the Brazilian depressive black metal underground, Monophobia released the single "Recomeço Sem Início" on PutreRecords and the full-length Gloom in early 2018 — the latter issued as a strictly limited digipak of fifteen copies via Silentium in Foresta Records. The music draws on raw, atmosphere-heavy DSBM traditions and has appeared on national scene compilations such as Coletânea de DSBM Nacional.

Montosse was a depressive black metal duo — instrumentalist Astratta and vocalist Érdos — whose music drew heavily from H.P. Lovecraft's mythos, with the band's very name referencing a demon from The Evil Dead. Their 2019 release Pois os Mortos Viajam Depressa... showcased bleak, introspective songwriting that found a home on multiple Brazilian DSBM compilations before the project dissolved.

Mount Depression is a depressive black metal project formed in July 2014 in Posadas, Misiones, Argentina, known for an expansive and experimental discography built across shifting lineups. Their albums include Suffering in Peace (2015), The Dream of the Flesh (2018), and A Lot of Corpses (2021), with early releases distributed internationally by Winterwolf Records in Germany and Depressive Illusions in Ukraine.

My Dearest Wound is a solo depressive/post-black metal project from Santiago, created by Sergio González Catalán, who also runs the doom projects Rise to the Sky and Winds of Tragedy. The project debuted with The Burial, released in 2023 through US label Tragedy Productions, followed by The Weight of Life Was Greater in 2024. The music confronts themes of childhood trauma, suicide, and self-harm, drawing on González Catalán's stated aim to express melancholy and inner rage without abstraction.
