Hopefully everyone is staying cool. The heat has been brutal where I am.

Stand outs this week:

  • Cairiss - Debut album from atmospheric post black metal band out of the UK. From their Bandcamp: “The album was written during intense periods of pain and recovery, and reflects a personal journey in understanding, surviving and ultimately integrating experiences that once felt unlivable. Wilderness gives a voice to the parts of us we never tell anyone.”

  • Die Tote Stadt - Debut album from Canadian melo death band.

Also looking forward to: Ceremonial Worship - As Bright As The Stars - Taberankel

But quality over quantity this week. I am looking forward to as many as weeks with double the number of releases. Some good death / doom, melo death and lots of black metal.

Stand outs this week:

  • Inherits the Void - Fourth album from atmospheric melodic black metal solo project out of France. I’m a big fan of the 2024 album Scars of Yesteryears and really looking forward to this one. For this album, he’s using some guest musicians; Romain Negro (Apolaustic, ex-Stortregn) on vocals and Nicolas Müller (Akiavel, ex-Artefact, ex-Svart Crown) on drums.

  • In Vespro - Debut album from Italian death / doom metal band. Reminiscent of early ‘90s doom, like Katatonia and Anathema.

  • Mossystone - Debut album after an EP out earlier this year from solo atmospheric black metal project. “Paysages Tristes — dedicated to autumn, to moss-covered stones, and to all those who continue to wander within these sorrowful landscapes.” This one is out today.

Also looking forward to: Mork - Loneshore - Avarice - Warthrash - Cyclopic - Flykt - Arrogant Destruktor - Saidan - Fogos - Blood Mother - Lost Vital Spark - EL

]]><![CDATA[New Metal Releases June 5th 2026]]>https://www.metal-connect.com/p/new-metal-releases-june-5th-2026https://www.metal-connect.com/p/new-metal-releases-june-5th-2026Mon, 01 Jun 2026 15:02:13 GMTLighter week this week with 44 releases. I’m still trying to catch up on some of the May releases that I wanted to listen to. It’s been busy so I haven’t started on May’s best releases list yet but with any luck, it should be out soon.

Stand outs this week:

  • ART|EST - Debut album from German tech death band. “Across the record, the songs circle the conflict between good and evil, and the uncomfortable thought that the real fight for the soul might begin long before life ends. It’s technical death metal with a sinister pull, shifting between intensity and atmosphere while keeping the tension high and the mood bleak.”

  • Xenosis - Fifth album from progressive tech death band out of the US. From Bandcamp, “On their fifth full-length album, "Hermetic Transmutation", they retain their core sound as they elaborate on both the progressive and technical aspects, even borrowing elements of brutal death metal and dissonant death metal to achieve that.”

Also looking forward to: Primal Cult - Edoma - Kybalion - Bloody Falls - Suicide Forest - Dissentient - Am I in Trouble? - Larve - In a Forest Dark

The three stand outs below should all be amazing and there are some other progressive albums that all sound promising. Drop a comment if I missed anything or if there’s something you’re excited for.

Stand outs this week:

  • The Scalar Process - Second album from French progressive technical death metal band. These guys aren’t technical or progressive just for the sake of being either of those and they blend the two subgenres really well along with some melodies mixed in.

  • Voidmaker - Debut album from progressive blackened death metal with some thrash elements from the US. You can check out the press release here. This one is out today.

  • Se, Josta Ei Puhuta - Fourth album from Finnish melodic blackened death metal band. From the band: “Interwoven guitar harmonies guide the listener from one layer to another, creating a tense yet unexpectedly warm atmosphere. Resurrection does not occur through light, but through darkness, where the old self is abandoned and a new form is born.”

Also looking forward to: Trelldom - Crocell - Sarcasm - Graveir - Malebeste - Halter - Wyrmhaven - Æpoch - Deus Sabaoth - Rimruna - Eternal Sword

]]><![CDATA[New Metal Releases May 22nd 2026]]>https://www.metal-connect.com/p/new-metal-releases-may-22nd-2026https://www.metal-connect.com/p/new-metal-releases-may-22nd-2026Mon, 18 May 2026 15:02:27 GMTMay has been another outstanding month so far for new music. I’m already running behind on new releases because there have been a few that I’ve listened to several times. And there are 52 more this week with several to look forward to.

Stand outs this week:

  • As The Sun Falls - Third album from Finnish melo death band. Melodic Death Metal and Finland is always a great combination I think.

  • Downfall of Nur - Second album from atmospheric black metal band out of Argentina. From their Bandcamp: “And the Firmament will Burn to Quench the Pain of this Earth unfolds as a profound reflection on the ancestral memory and deeply rooted symbols of Sardinia.”

  • Solipsism - Second album from Slovakian black metal band with negativity and melancholy. This one is darker than the debut album 4 years ago.

  • Barren Canyon - Third album 8 years on from atmospheric black metal band out of Canada. From their Bandcamp: “Taking the idea of “atmospheric metal” seriously and literally, A Virulent Stream draws both musically and lyrically upon themes of noxious air, suffocation, and the airborne contaminants of industrial society.”

Also looking forward to: Escaping Aghartha - Dimmu Borgir - Masca - The Circle of the Elect - Mansvara - Mécréant - Abandon Agony - Akiavel - Abgeschiedenheit - Maliciouz

]]><![CDATA[New Metal Releases May 8th 2026]]>https://www.metal-connect.com/p/new-metal-releases-may-8th-2026https://www.metal-connect.com/p/new-metal-releases-may-8th-2026Mon, 04 May 2026 15:01:52 GMTAnother pretty good week with 59 releases. Several to look forward to and the top two below I am super excited about. I haven’t listened to any of the Draconian album because I want to listen to it straight through the first time. There are a few bands I do this with and they are one of them.

Stand outs this week:

  • Draconian - 8th album from Swedish gothic death / doom band. One of personal favorite bands and I am very excited for this one. This is the first album with Lisa Johansson back on clean vocals. Heike Langhans is amazing but I just like Lisa a little better. Maybe it’s because their Turning Season Within album from 2008 is in my top 10 albums of all time and I’ve listened to it countless times.

  • Galibot - Third album from black metal band out of France. Their release earlier this year was fantastic and made my best albums of February list. I’m hoping this one is as good or better

  • Aghalmar - Debut album from atmospheric post black metal out of Germany. Sounds amazing from what I have heard so far.

  • Acolythus - Debut album from black metal band out of Finland. Reminiscent of old school Finnish black metal.

Also looking forward to: Panopticon - IATT - Ingested - Yoth Iria - Conjuring - Old Moon - Torchia - Saasta

Hopefully May continues that trend.

Stand outs this week:

  • Æonik - Debut album from melodic blackened death metal band out of Luxembourg. From Bandcamp: “ÆoniK combines atmospheric and melodic elements with raw, epic energy. The band creates intense soundscapes in which the aggression of death metal meets the darkness of black metal – uncompromising, dynamic, and instantly recognizable.”

  • Eveale - Debut album from UK/US based black metal band. From the band: “Our aim with Enter The Woodland Realm, was to create an album that took all of the things we love most about rock and metal, and to put them into one black metal album, with a distinctly unique sound”

Also looking forward to: Frydsman - Devenial Verdict - Cognizance - Wandar - Ilienses Tree - Meresin - Ashen Horde - Infected Dead

There should be something for just about anyone and plenty to look forward to.

Stand outs this week:

  • At the Gates - 8th album from melodic death metal band out of Sweden. One of the forefathers of melodic death metal and the Gothenburg sound along with Dark Tranquillity and In Flames, not much else needs to be said about them. The final release with Tomas Lindberg on vocals following his death in 2025.

  • Atlantic Ridge - Debut album from Italian atmospheric black metal band with some funeral doom elements. Very interesting blend and it sounds super promising.

  • Corrosive Agent - Debut album from German death metal band with several other influences including groove, melodic, progressive, thrash and blackened with an anti-fascist edge. The full album is available to stream on Bandcamp now.

Also looking forward to: Volcandra - Avertat - Pure Wrath - Archaic Oath - Kõdu - Firmament - Omnivortex

]]><![CDATA[New Metal Releases April 10th 2026]]>https://www.metal-connect.com/p/new-metal-releases-april-10th-2026https://www.metal-connect.com/p/new-metal-releases-april-10th-2026Mon, 06 Apr 2026 15:01:16 GMTWhat a week this is going to be. Inferi and Archspire both releasing new albums on the same day. Two tech death titans and a couple other big death metal releases.

Stand outs this week:

  • Inferi - Seventh album from melodic tech death band out of Tennessee. Spencer Moore on drums for the last time on this release so the drumming will be outstanding. He’s definitely one of my favorite drummers. While I’m bummed he’s not with Inferi anymore, I’m happy to see him with Archspire.

  • Archspire - Fifth album from Canadian tech death band. From their bio: “Since 2009, Archspire has aimed to be one thing above all else: extreme. With their upcoming release Too Fast to Die, they’ve once again raised the bar for what extreme music can be.”

  • Tethys - Debut album from Denver based tech death band. There are some clean vocals in here and typically I’m not a fan of cleans in tech death but I don’t hate them here. What’s been released so far sounds very promising and I always like to promote bands that are local to me.

Also looking forward to: Melechesh - Immolation - Vomitory - Skaphos - Scythe of Mephisto - Tarask - Silaera - Anifernyen

March is turning out to be a great month and there are a lot that I am looking forward to again.

Stand outs this week:

  • Grain of Pain - Second album from Finnish melodic gothic doom metal band. Featuring Timo Solonen of Infirmum, Lark Elkind from Before the Dawn on bass and clean vocals and Juuso Ratikainen on drums.

  • Foetorem - Debut album from death / doom band out of Denmark. From the Bandcamp; “With a band name that translates to “stench of decay”, Foetorem produces Death/Doom metal built on ponderous and melodic guitar riffing, technical drum patterns, and pulsing, cavernous basslines.”

Also looking forward to: Growth - Phileas - Tulus - Enisum - Cruel Force - Blasart - Solus Ex Inferis - Rivers Ablaze - Extinction - Fade Dreams - Mysidia - Bedrängnis - Hegeroth

Several doom albums I am looking forward to and a couple that sound promising along with quite a bit of death metal.

Stand outs this week:

  • Ethereal Darkness - Second album from Belgian melodic death / doom band with atmospheric and black metal influences. The music focuses on the dark side of life including grief and loss.

  • Hanging Garden - Ninth album from Finnish melodic death / doom band. From the band: “This time we decided to take a more conscious step towards a more bare-bones composition on the new songs, supporting the perhaps darker and maybe even more ferocious side of our music.”

  • Gaerea - Fifth album from post black metal band out of Portugal

Also looking forward to: Decipher - Empire of Disease - The Holeum - Nifrost - Hollow Woods - Karmian - Graufar - Dragsholm - Delirious Compulsion - Beleghost - In My Dreams
