New Metal Releases November 14th 2025
Demon King - Valontuoja - Mezzrow - Withering Soul - Veilburner - 1914 - Brainblast - Putrevore - Degraved - VoidCeremony - Auditory Anguish - And More...
Lighter release week again this week with 40 releases. But there are several that might make into my year end list from what I have heard so far.
Stand outs this week:
Demon King - First full length album from blackened tech death band out of Nashville, releasing on The Artisan Era. I have yet to hear a bad release from that label and the Demon King EP’s have been outstanding.
Brainblast - Debut album from Colombian progressive tech death band influenced by academic, classical music.
Mytherine - Sophomore album from German melo death metal band with some elements of progressive and blackened death metal. Lyrically, they draw inspiration from the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, The Witcher and the Dark Souls series
Also looking forward to: Valontuoja - Withering Soul - Veilburner - VoidCeremony - Lamp of Murmuur
