necrotrap
Necrotrap is a genre of hard electronic music created by the NECROSOCIETY collective in 2021. Animalistic, distorted, and aggressive, it is built on trap and metal at its core, with industrial, dark ambient, and lighter electronic touches (drum and bass, dubstep) used sparingly. The name comes from the Greek nekros (dead) plus trap. Production centers on heavy, prominent 808s (sometimes clean, sometimes distorted, never one fixed formula), dark textures, and screamed and processed vocals, paired with horror, militant, and hacker aesthetics. A sub-genre of trap metal that stands as its own genre, it is confrontational by design, not background music.
