Assembled during the pandemic in late 2021, O Espírito Profano wrote entirely in Portuguese and drew their themes from death, misanthropy, and spiritual suffering. Their short-lived run produced a self-titled release and a live EP recorded at the UFCAT university festival in Catalão, blending black, death, and doom metal into a dense and despairing sound before splitting up.

A São Paulo trio grinding death, thrash, and doom into a single bleak weight, Obsessor channel themes of societal decay and depression through a rawly recorded, underground aesthetic. Their self-released demo material captures a band firmly rooted in the South American extreme metal tradition with no concession to polish.

Orate are a stoner/grunge outfit from Santiago, Chile who have been active since 2004, drawing on grunge, indie rock, and stoner influences in their songwriting. They released a self-titled debut in 2004 and returned over a decade later with El Ave Madrina in 2017, an eight-track album that leans into hazy, groove-driven rock with Spanish-language lyrics.

Orbe Cruciger trade in slow, crushing doom metal with Portuguese-language lyrics that probe the darker reaches of the subconscious, historical myth, and the full spectrum of human cruelty. Their debut album "Idade das Trevas," a nine-track record launched live at the Altar de Ossos event in March 2026, marks an immediate entry point into the Belo Horizonte underground.

A solo project by multi-instrumentalist Danilo Rakkaus, Ormsdóttir debuted in early 2024 with the three-song EP Children of Sin, drawing from classic Black Sabbath-style doom while threading in stoner and depressive textures. The tracks range from driving, energetic riffs to slow, heavy passages, making a compelling first statement for a one-person outfit with a clear ear for contrasting moods.

Named after the legendary ghost ship whose crew perished under mysterious circumstances, Ourang Medan channel that maritime dread into slow, crushing sludge and doom built around themes of cosmic horror and the occult. Their debut full-length Lords of Eternal Seas (2016), recorded at Estúdio Warsong in Natal, captures a dense, ritualistic heaviness that earned them recognition as one of the northeast's standout underground acts.
