I'm in a Coffin is a niche band within the depressive suicidal black metal (DSBM) scene, known for its particularly raw and agonizing approach to the genre. Originating from the United States, the band keeps most of their specific personal details obscure, contributing to the enigmatic aura that surrounds their music. Their work is characterized by lo-fi production, anguished vocals, and despair-laden lyrics that are intended to convey the bleakness of depression and existential suffering.

Their discography, though not sprawling, has been influential within the DSBM community. Two of their notable works, "Waste of Skin" and "One Final Action," though released within a short time frame, have solidified the band's position as purveyors of the darkest depths of human emotion put to music. "One Last Final Action," often considered their opus, is a harrowing journey through raw emotion and is revered for its authenticity within the genre. "I'm in a Coffin" remains, to this day, a touchstone for listeners seeking the catharsis of shared gloom through their uncompromising sonic melancholia.
