Virgin Steele – Hell’s Heroes 8 (Houston, TX 03⧸21⧸2026) FULL SET – 1080p
VIRGIN STEELE brought their grandiose blend of epic heavy metal, mythology and old-school steel to Hell’s Heroes VIII in Houston, delivering a compact but powerful festival set built around some of the band’s most dramatic material. David DeFeis still commands the stage like a high priest of metal theatre, while the songs hit with that unmistakable mix of triumph, darkness and ancient-war atmosphere.
CONSECRATION – Exanimis (2026)
UK death-doom veterans CONSECRATION sink even deeper into the grave with “Exanimis”, a crushing fourth album built from monolithic riffs, funeral-weight atmosphere and bursts of raw death-metal violence. Bleak, patient and mercilessly heavy, it feels like the walls are moving inward with every song.
John Torra’s Debut – Quiet Riot Full Show 2026 – 1080p, Video, OneCamera
QUIET RIOT open a new chapter with 23-year-old John Torra behind the microphone, and his first full show feels less like a cautious introduction than somebody being thrown straight into the furnace. Backed by Rudy Sarzo, Alex Grossi and Johnny Kelly, Torra attacks the classics with a young voice, plenty of nerve and zero interest in sounding intimidated by the history behind him.
GENESIS – Live At Knebworth (2021) EP, MP3+FLAC
GENESIS return to one of their most famous festival appearances with “Live At Knebworth”, a limited Record Store Day release capturing the band in full arena-rock flight at Knebworth in 1990. Short in running time but huge in atmosphere, this is Phil Collins-era Genesis with the crowd already in the palm of their hand.
Lunachicks – We Can Be Worster 2026
LUNACHICKS finally get their first proper best-of with “We Can Be Worster”, a 13-track blast of punk, metal, trashy glamour and New York attitude. It is loud, funny, abrasive and gloriously wrong in all the right places.

Everrime – The Sea Is Calling Our Names – 2026
German symphonic metallers EVERRIME return with “The Sea Is Calling Our Names”, a darker and more expansive second album built on soaring vocals, heavy guitars and a strong gothic undertow. It feels cinematic without becoming overblown, with enough doom-weight in the atmosphere to keep the melodies from floating away.
Confessori – Realm Breaker – 2026
Ricardo Confessori steps out from behind the drum kit with “Realm Breaker”, a cinematic metal concept album built around humanity, technology and the fear of losing control of both. Heavy riffs, orchestral layers and a rotating cast of powerful Brazilian voices give the record the scale of a dystopian metal opera.
Tapio Mattlar – Maailmassa monta on virheellista asiaa – 2026
Genre: Prog Folk
Artist (band) Country: Finland
Year of Release: 2026
AMERICAN MAFIA – Partners In Crime (2026), MP3+FLAC
AMERICAN MAFIA open the vaults on “Partners In Crime”, a ten-track collection that traces their bloodline from early-’90s HOLY WATER demos to the tougher, bluesier sound of the present day. It is melodic hard rock with grease on the gears — big hooks, thick guitars and enough Bad Company swagger to keep everything loose.
Pelegrin – The Curse Of Nephtar (2026)
French heavy psych trio PELEGRIN return with “The Curse Of Nephtar”, a dense seven-track journey where desert-colored psychedelia, progressive structures and stoner-weight riffs move like heat over black stone. It is heavy without being blunt, mystical without disappearing into smoke, and easily their most ambitious record yet.
Old Man of Wandering Mountain – I (2026)
OLD MAN OF WANDERING MOUNTAIN make their full-length statement with “I”, a vast, atmospheric collision of progressive rock, post-metal and slow-burning psychedelic weight. Heavy riffs rise like cliffs through fog, then dissolve into quieter passages where synths, saxophone and space are allowed to breathe.
Stereophrenics – Paracosm 2.0 (2026)
Swiss progressive metallers STEREOPHRENICS make their full-length debut with “Paracosm 2.0”, a dark and atmospheric record where heavy riffs, gothic tension and theatrical vocals keep slipping in and out of focus. It feels less like a straight metal album and more like wandering through somebody else’s subconscious with the lights flickering.
