It’s Metal Friday again, and the weekend is just around the corner. What better way to kick it off than with a solid dose of metal? Here are the coolest new songs of the week.

It’s Metal Friday again, and the weekend is here! What could be better than tuning in to some brand-new metal tracks to get ready for the weekend? Whether you're into melodic death metal or brutal metalcore, this week has some serious heat. From Soilwork to Caliban, here are the biggest releases of the week that you definitely need to check out!

Soilwork – Spirit of No Return

Soilwork are back with "Spirit of No Return" – and it hits hard! The track combines the intense melodies and heavy arrangements you expect from Soilwork, paired with fresh energy from their new guitarist Simon Johansson. The accompanying music video is just as intense, showing the iconic SOILWORK symbol being reforged – perfectly matching the song’s theme of perseverance and transformation.

Sylosis – The Path

"The Path" by Sylosis is a total banger! The song tells the story of the band’s lifelong passion for heavy music – for them, it’s more than just a phase. While thematically it differs from their previous work, the power and meaning behind it are still strongly felt.

Wind Rose – "The Great Feast Underground"

Wind Rose drop their new album Trollslayer today and are kicking off their European tour with HammerFall and Powerwolf. With "The Great Feast Underground", they deliver the party anthem of the album, guaranteed to create a massive live atmosphere. Wind Rose are ready, and you should be too!

Lacuna Coil – "Oxygen"

"Oxygen" by Lacuna Coil goes deep. The track dives into emotional struggles and the feeling of being trapped in a toxic environment. It speaks to the tough journey of breaking free from what holds you down – and the music video brings this message to life in a visually impressive way.

Caliban – "Echoes"

Caliban return with their new single "Echoes". After introducing their new bassist Iain Duncan with "I Was A Happy Kid Once", they’re raising the bar once again. Grab the track now on YouTube, Spotify, or wherever you get your music – it’s definitely worth it!
