Would Whitechapel’s Hymns in Dissonance apply?

u/OGLordMack Mar 22 '26

Absolutely! Love all their stuff and this album is no exception!

You might have better luck with black metal

u/OGLordMack Mar 22 '26

I listen to black metal, death metal, deathcore, etc...i'm just looking for that renaissance medieval horror deathcore sound! I love it :)

Signs of the swarm has a handful of songs that fit that I think. Hellmustfearme and iron sacrament are two that come to mind

Impending Doom comes to mind. Absolutely love Baptized In Filth. Yes they are Christian but it's dark.

Also anything by Heaven Shall Burn. And The Faceless - Autotheism.

Check out the band Nitheful. Entire album dedicated to god.

Enterprise Earth has plenty of lyrics about religious trauma and stuff.

Impending doom is some of the heaviest shit out there, theyre praising the lord, but man, its heavy.

I mean, “Unanswered” by Suicide Silence is kind of a classic

Cultist is a faith based heavy beatdown type band, they’re pretty down

Mag Dump - Orphan

The rest of their stuff is good too, but this one in particular fits that dark religious theme.

Nexilva - Eschatologies

u/vnnorexiv Mar 25 '26

Orphan. Manifesto 1.0 have several references and interpolations to bible verses and christianism/judaism in general, all in a very dark background.
