They are! Some of them even have good music (ouch, self jab). A lot of them fall squarely in the realm of non metalheads saying “this isn’t music/this is just noise”, a few of them are small scale bands, and a few of them are really iconic bands.
3 inches of Blood is very much the outlier genre-wise, it’s power metal about DnD stuff.
Hell yeah, Anorexia Nervosa was one of my favorite bands for a long time. Good tunes. I grew up in a town with a comparatively big metal scene, so I was pretty blessed with a lot of metal that I would have otherwise never heard. Honestly I wasn’t too sure that anyone would recognize anything from that list outside of Neurosis or a few others. Hell, I wouldn’t recognize some of them if I didn’t write the list, and it’s all from my own music library.
Fleshgod, Gorod, Katatonia, and Spawn of Possession immediately stood out to me, among the others, but I was legit just surprised to have seen an Anorexia Nervosa mention up there.
are those all band names?

Surprised to see you threw Anorexia Nervosa in there, I’ve never met anybody else who had listened to them, or even heard of em for that matter.
