Dead Chasm

Dead Chasm is a shadowy force in the underground black/death metal scene, known for crafting raw, atmospheric soundscapes that plunge listeners into existential voidscapes. Emerging in the early 2010s as a solo project shrouded in anonymity, the act delivers lo-fi brutality fused with eerie melodic undercurrents, channeling themes of cosmic insignificance, ancient occultism, and metaphysical dread. Recent releases like *Spectral Tyranny* and *Sublimis Ignotum Omni* showcase their signature blend of frostbitten riffage, dissonant harmonies, and cavernous vocals, all recorded with a deliberately primal production style that nods to ’90s underground tape-trading culture. While avoiding public appearances or interviews, Dead Chasm maintains a prolific output through cryptic Bandcamp drops and limited vinyl runs, cultivating a cult following drawn to their unrelenting sonic obsidian. The project’s name—shared with its 2016 self-titled album—serves as both manifesto and warning: this is music for traversing lightless psychic chasms.
