Vauruvã is a two-person progressive black metal project from Rio de Janeiro: multi-instrumentalist Caio Lemos composes and records everything beneath the vocals and lyrics of Bruno Augusto Ribeiro. Since their 2021 debut Manso Queimor Dacordado — later picked up for a physical release by Pest Productions — the band has woven atmospheric black metal together with Brazilian and indigenous folk textures, culminating in the 2025 album Mar da Deriva, a three-track, thirty-five-minute work recorded between spring 2024 and autumn 2025.

Vazio emerged from São Paulo in 2017 with a self-titled EP that announced a band fluent in raw, occult-charged black metal — a sound the four-piece (Renato Gimenez on vocals and guitar, Eric Nefus Cavalcante on guitar, Nilson Slaughter on bass, and Daniel Vecchi on drums) has refined across a series of splits and full-lengths including Necrocosmos. Their themes span the void, Quimbanda, necromancy, and dark spiritualism, rooting their music in Brazil's own esoteric traditions alongside orthodox black metal grimness.

Vegllem was a raw black metal and DSBM project from São Paulo that came and went within 2024, leaving behind a small clutch of recordings including the album Hell — whose tracks "Lord Vampire," "War," and "Catacumba" sketch the project's bleak, lo-fi aesthetic — and a separate release titled Sky Angell. Short-lived even by underground standards, Vegllem has since split up.
