Hranice Abyss is a death/thrash metal band from São Paulo, Brazil, formed in 2020 by vocalist Vic Ferreira and guitarist Henrique de Fina, with bassist Bruno Nicolozzi and drummer Lucas Coltri rounding out the lineup. The band released their debut EP "Aphagy" in August 2021, a fully self-produced six-track effort that drew comparisons to The Black Dahlia Murder, Necrophagist, and Slayer, earning an 8/10 from Metal Temple. Their DIY approach extended to producing and directing their own music videos, including the singles "Violation of Human Condition" and "Flawless Oblivion".
Human Machine of Hate is a death/thrash metal band from São Paulo, Brazil, formed in 2018. Their debut release, The Negativity Core (December 2018), is a five-track record blending death and thrash metal with politically and socially critical Portuguese- and English-language lyrics.

Hunger is a thrash metal band from Indaiatuba, São Paulo, founded by vocalist and guitarist Mauro Izalbert with the intent of pairing politically engaged lyrics with aggressive thrash riffs. The band released their debut full-length Hunger Feeds Misery in 2020, featuring tracks such as "Peace Is in Pieces" and "The Dead Are Not Afraid to Die", produced at Boomer Studio in Indaiatuba. The lineup on that record included Mateus Marini on guitar, Israel Santana on drums, and Tom Wolphy on bass.
Hylidae is a death and thrash metal band from Rio Branco, Acre — one of Brazil's most geographically remote metal acts — whose band name is drawn from an indigenous Amazonian ritual associated with hunting and survival. The band released their debut full-length Promiscuous World (2012), recording it in Curitiba due to the lack of suitable studios in Acre, and followed it with the second album Unbreakable Curse (2021), mixed and mastered in Fortaleza. Over their career they have shared stages with Sepultura, Nervochaos, and Demonical.
