New Metal Releases September 26th 2025
Mors Principium Est - Revocation - Frostmoon Eclipse - Demiurgon - Sardonic - Kingdom - Gutted Souls - Lebensstille - Fauna - And More...
Stand outs this week:
Mors Principium Est - One of my favorite melo death bands. 8th album from these guys and so far they don’t have a bad album. “Seven” released in 2020, is probably my favorite from them and I never get tired of listening to it. I am very excited for this one.
Ordeals - Debut album from blackened death metal band out of New York City. The first two singles are fantastic and there are some great melodies in here.
Also looking forward to: Revocation - Demiurgon - Frostmoon Eclipse - Gutted Souls - Counting Hours
