New Metal Releases July 3rd 2026
Soothsayer - In Throes - Hellionight - Moonspell - Zornheym - TodoMal - Coprolith - Witchsorrow - Mortem - Illwind - Dichotomy - And More...
Very light week this week with only 26 releases. There are still a handful I am looking forward to. Several promising doom albums. The last couple of weeks have been light but it gives me time to work on the best of June list.
Stand outs this week:
Soothsayer - Second album from Irish atmospheric doom metal band. Featuring guest appearances from Dave Ingram (Benediction, Bolt Thrower), Paul Catten (Medulla Nocte, Lazarus Blackstar) and Eugene Robinson (Oxbow, Buñuel)
In Throes - Debut album from atmospheric post black metal band out of Australia.
Also looking forward to: Helionight - Moonspell - TodoMal - Mylingen
