Gravefields

Gravefields is an energetic and international death metal band originally hailing from Dublin, Ireland, and formed in 2019. Before adopting the name Gravefields, they were known as Dirtyprotest since 2006. The band blends a potent mix of brutal death metal with black metal influences, creating a dynamic and atmospheric sound that balances raw aggression and melody. Their music incorporates mysticism and occult themes, with a style described as a symbiosis of brutal and black metal, punctuated by shamanistic vocals and richly textured compositions that go beyond traditional death metal boundaries. Gravefields’ work is marked by thoughtful songwriting and creative dynamics that provide both intensity and depth, making their albums compelling listens for fans of the genre.

Their releases like *Embrace the Void* (2019) and *Tetragrammaton* (2023) showcase their evolution from a Swedish death metal-influenced sound to a broader, more textured approach, incorporating elements that bring to mind bands like Nile and Sulphur Aeon. *Tetragrammaton* in particular is praised for its grandiose soundscapes and emotive power, blending blackened melodies with brutal riffs and psychedelic chaos, resulting in a uniquely fierce and atmospheric experience. The band continues to push genre boundaries while maintaining a deeply intense and occult-infused musical identity.
