Diamond's Mine: The Best Of 2022

It's been quite a year. A year that saw regular live shows return, bands hit the road once again, festivals re-open and most importantly, some stellar new music! We said goodbye to bands such as Nuclear Assault, Tristania, The Sword and Every Time I Die and welcomed back old favourites like Biohazard, Coal Chamber, God Forbid and most surprisingly, Pantera. But we'll start with something new and hand out the award for...

Best Newcomer

2022 saw quite a few bands emerge with their debut albums. One which really caught the ears of listeners was Philadelphia's, Empress, with their first album, "Fateweaver." Some truly wonderful artwork leads the way into some excellent symphonic power metal and won over plenty of new fans. Other notable debuts came from the East of the globe with such bands as Ou from China, whose progressive debut "One" was an interesting one (oh ho ho,) while to the south of China in India, we find the winners of this year's award.

Bloodywood

Maybe a slightly controversial one as Bloodywood has been around for a little while, but it was in 2022 that they released their first full length album of original material, "Rakshak." Metal has always been open to incorporating new genres and cultures (even if a section of fans that we don't like to talk about aren't so keen on the latter) and in a year which saw the USA hear the sounds of Indian folk metal in a broader sense. Bloodywood has reached a much wider audience by releasing their first album and the metal world were happy to welcome them. Let's hope they're around for a long time to come. More...

Sanguisugabogg Shares "Face Ripped Off" Video

Ohio's notorious, boundary-pushing, and bloodsucking death metal outfit Sanguisugabogg - Cody Davidson, drums; Drew Arnold, guitars/bass; Devin Swank, vocals; and Ced Davis, guitars/bass - have announced their new album, Homicidal Ecstasy. The album arrives on February 3 via Century Media.

Today, the band has shared the video for "Face Ripped Off", which can be viewed below.

Says the band: "Dropping another video that we filmed with My Good Eye: Music Visuals along with our friend Aaron Heard of Jesus Piece titled 'Face Ripped Off'... it’s about a face being ripped off. Hold onto your seat and prepare your eyes for something so vile and grotesque you had wished your eyes were plucked out prior to watching." More...

Nanowar Of Steel To Release New Album In March

Masters of parody-infused heavy metal Nanowar Of Steel are thrilled to announce their fifth studio album, "Dislike To False Metal," out March 10, 2023 via Napalm Records. Gathering their genius minds for the next chapter, the level of their comedic delivery has risen to its very best. With featured guests like Sabaton singer Joakim Brodén, the band puts the multi-faceted and much too often self-important universe of modern heavy metal to the test with this collection of ten entirely brand new tracks.

Sing and laugh along to the band’s brand new single, "Winterstorm In The Night" - a powerful, mighty anthem exploring the flaky depths of dandruff and scalp hygiene - featuring vocals from Madeleine Liljestam of dark symphonic metal band Eleine. Nanowar Of Steel continue to showcase their quick-witted lyrical ingenuity and amazing musicality with dance-worthy melodies, and have once again crafted a video of the highest quality to go along with the new single.

Nanowar Of Steel on “Winterstorm in the Night”:
After dealing with the number one problem of metalheads in the recent single 'Armpits Of Immortals,' we continue the metal & personal hygiene saga with a brand new track dealing with another headbangers' nightmare: dandruff. Mr. Baffo was plagued by it until he found a solution, so we hope all of you pandoro-headed metallers out there will follow his advice on how to solve it! More...
