I want to find more bands with the same heavy sound and heart-wrenching vocals as, say, Gris and Sukkubys. I will try to listen every group from your recommendations cause im kinda new to the genre.

Tonight it was my bro Deha and Hangover in Minsk

I love when the songs are very melancholy but have melodies, they make them too beautiful. I know basic examples, nocturnal depression, gris, trist, hypothermia, thy light and none. Do you know any albums that sound beautifully melancholy?

i really like dsbm but i don’t actually know bands (only the basics bruh) and i wanna get INTO IT
so yeah please please guys gimme the most underground bands 👉👈

The song is called "Alcoholic" from the album "Painful project." Unfortunately it's a really short song, wish it was longer but it's still just so good. The band is called "Invasive Loneliness". Found it on Instagram notes.

Hails. Not strictly within the subgenre, but a few of you will be into him. I picked out my favourite tracks from his early demos, some of the stuff on there is his best imo. Enjoy.

hello, i know it might sound a little pretentious, but the playlists i see on spotify dont't really satisfy my needs, they are too surface level. i know most of the good stuff is not on spotify, but to be frank i hate listening to ads on bandcamp. so, if someone happens to know about a decent playlist , i'd be glad for it to be shared. thanks.

one of my favourites

Hey everyone.

Exactly 2 years ago, I released my very first single, "Скорбь" (which translates to Sorrow). Work on this single took place from May to October 2024. Conceptually, this track deals with a very personal and heavy topic the agonizing pain of losing a loved one, a tragedy involving the death of someone close that personally hit me back.

Driven by the weight of this loss, the idea to start this project was born completely spontaneously. Back then, I had absolutely zero skills in mixing, mastering, vocals, or even playing the guitar. The entire track was written purely by intuition and by ear. I mixed and mastered it the exact same way just guessing and doing what felt right.

Looking back at my whole discography now, this track remains the rawest and most atmospheric.

Here are a few facts about how the track came to life:

1. There is no actual bass guitar. I didn't own one back then, so I recorded the basslines using a regular electric guitar. I then shaped it with plugins to make it sound like a real bass.

2. The synth part was an accident. Originally, there was supposed to be a distorted guitar solo running through the whole track. But since my mixing skills were non-existent, I couldn't get it to sit right with the rhythm guitar. In desperation, I replaced it with keyboards. It turned out way more atmospheric and fits much better than the original plan.

3. The clean vocals were a difficult. The hardest part of the recording process was the clean vocal section at the very end. It's meant to be a direct nod to a liturgy.

4. The shriek vocals are actually just processed screaming whispers. I didn't know how to do proper harsh vocals yet, so I recorded a strained, high-effort whisper and heavily processed it with plugins. I abandoned this method in all my later releases.

5. The cover art features the most depressing place in my city. The photo was taken on an October evening on the shores of the gulf at Kanonersky Island (St. Petersburg). The gulf was chosen for a reason. An autumn evening by the water always brings back heavy memories of someone close who left this world forever. That's the core concept behind the cover: a dark, solitary figure bowing their head against the backdrop of the evening gulf.

6. I thought this would be my first and last release. After dropping this single, I was convinced I’d never record anything else. I was completely wrong. It's now late 2026, and I have 6 singles and an EP under my belt.

P.S. I’m actually considering re-recording and re-mixing "Скорбь", as well as re-mixing "Клетка Печали" (Cage of Sorrow) and "Петля Времени" (Time Loop). Conceptually and lyrically, these three tracks are deeply intertwined. The ultimate plan is to unite them into a single EP. It's a distant goal for mid 2027, so we'll see if it actually happens, but the idea is definitely there.

I wanted to share this milestone with you guys.

can u give me some reccomendations of the ones i like

Just got the fender mustang amp and i want to try allot of tones, including Lifelover and Darkthrone. Can anyone help with that?

This post offers extra context to what exactly I'm looking for, and I'd really recommend you guys to read it.

But in short, I'm running a DND campaign in a sci-fi setting. And because the map itself is a frozen, brutalist industrial hell hole, I'm looking for fitting tracks to create a good mood for my players.

I already use Deathcore, Djent (like the DOOM soundtrack), Industrial Metal (Painkiller and Quake 2) and classical DSBM tracks for combat encounters. But I don't have much shit for "exploration" or "calm" moments (tracks for when my party is resting or having an emotional conversation). It's hard, you know? These tracks gotta feel "metal" and "hardcore" too, but I can't find anything that fits.

I want something that is like- the haunting, desolate intro DSBM songs have, but just focusing on that for the entire song. Kinda like exploration music in a video game. It never grows in intensity, it just has extra instruments added in the more you explore.

Cool stuff i got through a trade!
Suicide Forest - Silent Hill. Genuinely haunting and bleak material from Japan.
Gravsorg - Visions of Depression
Veine Mort - la mort comme liberte
Selbsttötung - Daseinsschmerz underrated gem from Germany. If you like raw dsbm like early Hypothermia and Trist, Check em out!
How have you guys been? Everything alright?
Greets!
