New Metal Releases July 4th 2025
Erebor - Anheim - Seasons in Black - Mortual - Eminentia Tenebris - Akouphenom - Cannibalism - Wékeras - Thumos - Stygian - And more...
Not as many releases this week but there are still some to look forward to. I may have a chance to catch up on some releases from previous weeks.
Stand outs this week:
Erebor - Second album from progressive death metal band out of the UK. From the band: “Clocking in at 43 minutes, the three songs that comprise this album detail the path to the divine, and easily stand as the most progressive, melodic, and dynamic in our catalogue.”
Also looking forward to: Anheim - Death by Design FL - Seasons in Black - Eminentia Tenebris - Akouphenom - Burden of Ymir
