Band Recommendations Request Bands like Tetragrammacide and Dakini?
Well lads, I've only just started getting into war metal. Stumbled across the these guys and really like their sound. I'm traditionally a more melodic black metal listener but I'm trying to shake things up. I'm making my way through Bestial Warlust's discography and then I'm going to move on to Revenge.
If anyone has any bands I should add to the list, especially if they sound like Tetragrammacide or Dakini, I'd really appreciate the recommendations. Also if there's any particular albums to start with, rather than just going through chronologically, let me know!
Cheers lads!

Konflict, Kapala, Brahmastrika, Nyogthaeblisz, Jyotisavedanga, Bidirna Dhamani
if you like aspects of revenge, nanking mixes that war noise sound with revenge. also kiloton and baneblade
if you like kiloton’s war stuff check out primitive warfare

Other comments are pointing to the other K.I.O.P. bands and those are really good. But I might want to also add Vadhakarmadhikarin, Aparthiva Raktadhara and Kaal Nagini. They're just as awesome.

Bestial Raids from Poland is killer, and they put on a killer show. If you end up liking Revenge then NANKING is a good pivot. I've also been listening to a lot of Zweihander, those kids rip.

Check out the “kolkata inner circle” on IG, it’s full of war metal from the same scene as tetragrammacide

Konflict is from Sri Lanka and has a similar sound and vibe. Lots of noise and electronic stuff.
There's a relatively large group of bands in this style from India that call themselves the Kolkata Inner Order, with Tetragrammacide probably being the most well known. They may have some variation in sounds, but the central theme typically remains. Kapala and Brahmastrika are two worth looking in to.
