Podrectomy is a progressive death metal slam project built around the trio of Johnny Lande on vocals, Junior Carlos on guitars, and Marcelo Nespoli on bass. Their 2025 full-length Anecdotal Lunacy brings together intricate song structures and crushing slam breakdowns, pushing the boundaries of brutal death metal through a distinctly technical lens.

One of the longer-running extreme acts out of the greater Rio de Janeiro area, Podreiras have been delivering uncompromising old-school grindcore and death metal since the early 1990s. Their music carries a consistent undercurrent of social and political critique, channeled through a fast, abrasive sound rooted in the early Brazilian underground.

Podrera have been a fixture of the Brasília underground since the late 1990s, playing a direct and aggressive brand of crossover that pulls equally from thrash metal, hardcore, and punk. Their discography spans the 1998 demo Mundo Imundo through to the full-length O Inferno Cada Vez Mais Perto de Você (2018), with lyrics consistently targeting political and social targets.

Podridão play a fetid, deliberately primitive brand of death metal that draws from the same well as Autopsy, early Sepultura, and Vulcano. The band's discography includes Cadaveric Impregnation (2023) and Coffin of the Corrupted Dead (2025, Iron Fortress Records), both leaning into gore-drenched themes and the kind of miasmic, churning riff-craft that defined the earliest Brazilian death metal scenes.

Active since 1998, Poem's Death deal in straightforward, mid-paced death metal with a combative, politically charged lyrical worldview. Their debut album Decade of Rebellion, released in 2019 through Mutilation Productions and Blizzard Records, collects tracks like "Apocalypse of Workers" and "The Master to Slave" into a blunt, unembellished slab of old-school death.

Founded in June 1997 by multi-instrumentalist Cesar Severus, Poeticus Severus weave operatic heavy metal and dark ambient into a singular project the band itself calls "Operetus Barbaricus Metal," with Cecília Katrini contributing piano and backing vocals. Recent studio work includes Fulgor Sombrio (2022, recorded at Gruta Estúdio in Rio) and O Rugir da Ira (2024), both produced entirely by Severus.

Formed in 2012 by Wilson (Evil Puke), Luan (slaughterrazor), and Alex Henrique Rangel, Poison Beer played aggressive old-school thrash drawing heavily from the German scene while weaving in crossover, black, and death metal influences. Their 2013 EP Poisoning the Priest laid out their provocative lyrical obsessions — alcohol, evil, and anti-religious sacrilege — over six short blasts of raw, unpolished thrash.

Poison the Preacher is a thrash metal, crossover, and hardcore punk band from Bogotá, Colombia, formed in 2021. The band blends raw hardcore aggression with old-school thrash principles and released their debut full-length "Vs the World" in 2025 through Concreto Records. Their catalog also includes several singles and a split release from 2022–2023.

Poisonous play a dense, blasphemous strain of death metal that blends the brutality of old-school American death with the obscure, murky atmospheres of early Brazilian extreme metal. Active since 2008, the band released the Coronation EP in 2017 and returned with the four-track Doomed Pillars EP in 2022, cementing their reputation as one of the most uncompromising acts from Bahia's underground.
