It's Friday, and the weekend is just around the corner. What could be better than kicking off the weekend with a solid dose of heavy metal? Here are the coolest new songs of the week:
Powerwolf - We Don't Wanna Be No Saints
Powerwolf kick things off with their new song 'We Don't Wanna Be No Saints". The song combines religious themes and sin in an impressive atmosphere, as expected from Powerwolf. Particularly cool: the accompanying music video was filmed in an old monastery, and a children's choir highlights the theme and atmosphere of the song in a completely new way. This blend of mystical setting and innovative music makes for an exciting listening experience. .
Arch Enemy - Dream Stealer
"Dream Stealer" has everything Arch Enemy fans love: changing tempos, melodic parts, and the hard growls of singer Alissa White-Gluz. If you're into the harder tones, this song is perfect for you.
Guitarist Michael Amott says about the new single: "This is our first new song in a while, and it feels great to be back! It was a blast recording 'Dream Stealer' in the studio. The song just has that energy and atmosphere that makes it so exciting to play! Turn up the volume! Metal is immortal!"
Jinjer - Someone's Daughter
"Someone's Daughter" from Jinjer sheds light on the inner world of women who have chosen paths historically reserved for men. The song celebrates the transition from naivety to wisdom and from weakness to strength, as women bravely face challenges and overcome obstacles. Generations of mothers, sisters, daughters, and wives have fought and continue to fight for change. They deserve the utmost respect. Listen to the song directly here and be surprised by what Jinjer has in store this time.
Boston Manor - Horses In A Dream
The track, according to Mike Cunniff, deals with "raw human intimacy." It touches on despair and the deep emotional connections that form when two people are together and completely free. This profound theme makes the song a special experience. With its emotional and honest lyrics, "Horses In A Dream" is a must for all fans of Boston Manor.
Future Palace - Decarabia
Future Palace are gearing up for the release of their new album Distortion, which will be out on September 6, 2024. With their new single "Decarabia," they show a new musical side. The nostalgic and modern synths in the intro and chorus give the band's heavy sound a danceable touch and remind one of Electric Callboy.
The music video was filmed in an abandoned Soviet disco in Latvia near the Lithuanian border. It is visually impressive and perfectly complements the powerful sound of the band. Make sure to watch it until the end!
