Buffalo Gore Fest 2026 takes over Buffalo Iron Works on Saturday, June 6th!
Morgue Terror:
Morgue Terror is from the snowy, cold, frozen tundra of Buffalo, New York. Members Dave (guitar) & Steve (bass, vocals) started the band, composing their debut EP Morgue Terror. Dustin joined on drums in November of 2023, after hearing the debut single “Chopped Up Chum”.
Their second EP, Violent And Murderous Thoughts, dropped on August 23rd, 2024. Kevin joined the band on bass after the trio had already recorded, with Steve staying on vocals. Dustin left after the summer of 2025, and Logan of Lacerate took over on drums. Anthony replaced Kevin on bass in 2026, and with the additions of Logan & Anthony, the band is poised to begin a new era.
So far, Morgue Terror has played with Internal Bleeding, NecroticGoreBeast, Internal Suffering, Malignancy, Frog Mallet and more. Their latest singles – Gore Harvest, Feasting On The Dead, Terror In The Morgue, and Cryptid Skin – are out now. The band has signed to CDN Records for the release of their upcoming full-length.
Marvel of Decay:
Marvel of Decay hails from the Rose of New England, Norwich, CT. Spencer (guitar) and Kyle (drums) formed the band in 2019.
John (vocals) and Greg (bass) joined that same year. After that they released their first self titled EP that they tracked and mixed themselves.
Since then the band has released the Quarantine EP in 2020 that was tracked and mixed remotely by the band themselves. After that they released The Abysmal Grip in 2021, Virulent Realms in 2023 and Display of Indifference in 2025!
The band blends a lot of sub genres of death metal without conforming fully to any of them. It’s a mix of traditional death metal, slam, melodic death metal, tech death, brutal death metal and camo shorts deathcore.
Abated Mass of Flesh:
Formed in the summer of 2011, Abated Mass of Flesh started as a solo act by Zack Plunkett. After the release of the first EP, he added his brother Matt to the project to take over on lead vocals. Together, they put out a number of EPs and became a live act the following year. Since then, they have continued releasing material and playing shows. Their consistency and dedication have helped cement their place in the underground slam scene. With no signs of slowing, AMOF continue slamming their way through the scene, unleashing a barrage of guttural, grinding death metal.
Scab Hag:
Scab Hag is a swamp-brewed death metal quintet seeping out of Cincinnati, Ohio. Metal Hammer listed them in "10 up-and-coming death metal bands every self-respecting metalhead should know". Formed in 2021, Scab Hag has made waves in the metal community and has shared the stage with acts such as Mortician, Bodybox, Volcano, Left to Die, Undeath, Snuffed On Sight, Skeletal Remains, Vitriol, Morta Skuld, Nunslaughter, Bury Your Dead, Genocide Pact, Vomit Forth, Mutilatred, Exhorder, Deterioration, and many more.
Scab Hag amassed a dedicated following at shows and on social media platforms. They played many shows and festivals, including Gored in the Heart of Texas, Hacked Up for Barbecue, Delaware Terror Fest, Connecticut Funtime Bonanza, and have completed tours with bands like Bonginator, Mutilation Barbecue, and Crown Vic.
Scab Hag has successfully partnered with Frozen Screams Imprint, Pull The Plug Patches, Iron Fortress Records, Penalty Box Records, and more.
Orbital Gate:
Orbital Gate is an independent slamming brutal death metal solo project from Cary, IL formed by Eva Van Dyne in 2022. Since 2025, Orbital Gate has been performing with a live band consisting of Eva on guitar/vocals, Dylan Rehner on guitar, Joshua McKenney on bass, and Dave Cieck on drums, while continuing to be a solo project in the studio. Orbital Gate has released three full length albums, an EP, and a split. Despite remaining independent, Orbital Gate has grown a decently sized following online over the years.
Throne:
Revered and respected among the Midwest heavy music community, Throne have captivated and crushed the masses with their unique brand of death metal since their first jaw-dropping live performance in late 2017. Founded in 2014 by frontman Nathan Barnes and drummer Kollin Perpignani, the band's inception as a side project quickly evolved into a full-time endeavor. With the addition of bassist Leslie Drake in early 2017, Throne's line-up was taking shape, setting the stage for their rise.
Their debut EP "Altar of The Dying" in 2018, followed by the full-length album "Pestilent Dawn" in 2020, showcased their growth and mastery of blackened death metal, capturing the attention of the international metal community. Sharing stages with major extreme acts like At The Gates and Goatwhore, Throne has earned both respect and admiration within the metal community. Their unwavering work ethic, coupled with a modest approach, has given them an elite status among peers. The newest addition of lead Guitarist, Tim Kenefic, brought a new level of technical skill and energy, further enhancing their already intricate and ferocious sound.
Throne's latest album, "That Who Sat Upon Him, Was Death," marks a new chapter in their evolving saga. Striving for a heavier and more intense death metal sound, while also exploring new dynamics, the album stands out as both a continuation and a departure from their previous work.
Lacerate:
Lacerate is a trio from Buffalo focused on groove laden death metal. The band released their self titled EP in 2024, and then dropped “Anabolic” and “Cranial Chunks” in 2025. The band has been playing a multitude of shows in Buffalo and Rochester. They’ll be finally spreading their wings in May with Morgue Terror, Coronary Thrombosis, Misanthropic Tendencies and Chronepsis on the “Erie Canal Carnage” run (May 7 Philly On The Rocks, May 8 Lost Horizon, May 9 Amvets 13). Fronted by Kaleb on bass and vocals, Jack on guitar and Logan on drums the boys are poised to take the stage for their biggest show yet.
Consuming Misery:
Consuming Misery is a brutal death metal band out of Hamilton, Ontario. The Canadians do not mess around with their vicious take on brutal death metal. This band has been around since 2023. The band participated with Morgue Terror and Anthropic on the 2025 split “Sickening Slabs of Brutality”. They’ve always stuck to shows in Canada but Buffalo Gorefest is very special to them. It’s the first time Consuming Misery is leaving Canada to play a show in the USA. Show up early to check out their ferocious set.
Inoculation:
Inoculation is an old school death metal band (with some technical elements) based out of Cleveland, Ohio. Reeling off the success of their latest album “Actuality”, the band is steamrolling into Gorefest. They’ll be releasing a new song “Earthbound” February 27th.
Slamology:
Slamology is a three piece slam band based out of Kentucky. The goal is to focus on sick riffs, low gutturals and groovy songs. “Iverson Anklebreaker” just released on streaming services. Slamology invades Buffalo June 6th to bring us some guttural hood slam.
Coronary Thrombosis:
Coronary Thrombosis is a brutal death metal band based out of Long Island, New York. The band knows their sound based off 90’s New York brutal death metal. They released a demo in 2021 and their debut EP “Disgusting Disfigurement” in 2025. Coronary Thrombosis strives on vile brutality and an old school way of thinking.
Surviving a multitude of lineup changes, this band has more than proved their stay in death metal. Come check out their truly sickening set at Buffalo Gorefest.
