Full Of Hell with BRAT, Napalm Death, and more

New Orleans metal/hardcore band BRAT blend primitive death metal, thrash, and swamp-drenched hardcore. Their 2024 debut album Social Grace was followed by Manslayer, recorded at Bricktop in Chicago with producer Andy Nelson.

Napalm Death, formed in Meriden, England in 1981, pioneered grindcore, blending hardcore punk and death metal. Known for extreme speed, blast beats, guttural vocals, and sociopolitical lyrics, their influential albums include "Scum" and "Throes of Joy in the Jaws of Defeatism". "You Suffer" holds the Guinness World Record for shortest song. They have collaborated with artists like Melvins and are a top-selling death metal band.

Formed in 1990 from The Slugs, Crowbar blended doom metal and hardcore into a heavier, deliberate sound. Often tagged sludge metal, they’re a cornerstone of the New Orleans metal scene. Led by sole original member Kirk Windstein, they’ve released 12 acclaimed albums.

Full Of Hell, formed in 2009 in Maryland, delivers a brutal blend of extreme metal and noise. Known for experimental sound and notable collaborations, their discography includes Coagulated Bliss (2024).
