Napalm Recor

Swedish Viking metal pioneers MÅNEGARM celebrate their 30-year career with the release of their most evocative album to date, Edsvuren, out August 29, 2025 via Napalm Records! As one of the leading bands in the genre, they once again bring their inimitable style and the blood oath of viking, black and folk metal back together for an unforgettable and diverse sonic journey. Pensive and dreamy atmospheric monsters meet songs for a proper mead binge - this mixture has brought the band a loyal international fan base and highly acclaimed appearances at prestigious festivals such as Ragnarök and Summer Breeze Open Air.

1914: Viribus Unitis [2 Vinyl LP]

Six long years since their latest offering, Swedish occult rock frontrunners YEAR OF THE GOAT return with their fourth studio album, entitled "Trivia Goddess". Once again, they take a break from their ongoing trilogy that started with the award-winning album “Angels Necropolis” (2012), followed by the much-acclaimed “Novis Orbis Terrarum Ordinis” (2019). Inspired by the most harrowing moments in women's history – vilified by churches and men of a petty god, devalued as the lesser sex throughout the history of the Abrahamic religions – in true satanic fashion, "Trivia Goddess" sees the Norrköping, Sweden-based dark rock collective oppose the structures of true evil in the world. Evoking a sinister, almost medieval spirit on tracks such as "Power of Eve", the band shows its epic, powerful and expeditious side, while "Alucarda" captivates listeners with an irresistibly catchy 70s hard rock vibe.

Visions of Atlantis deliver tales of high-seas adventure through cinematic symphonic metal anthems, swiftly rising as high as a Jolly Rancher flag since the band’s humble beginnings in August 2000. Formed in idyllic Bruck an der Mur, Austria, the band boasts a French frontwoman (currently residing in Italy) and embodies an international appeal as vast as the oceans traversed by the pirates of old. The Pirates era is majestically celebrated across the multipart Armada LIVE Over Europe (2025). Culled from professional recordings captured at multiple tour stops, the collection showcases Visions Of Atlantis’ visceral prowess, power, and dynamic connection to its loyal audience. 

Lord of the Lost: Opvs Noir Vol 2 [Vinyl LP]

Following the roaring success of their latest album A Dream Of Wilderness (2021), Toulouse-based melodic death metal powerhouse AEPHANEMER strikes back with their fourth studio offering, Utopie, out October 31, 2025 via Napalm Records. Blending ferocious melodic death metal with cinematic grandeur, Utopie sees the trio unleash an ambitious, razor-sharp assault of epic melodies, relentless speed, and philosophical depth, pushing their sound into bold new territory. Led by the carnivorous growls and commanding presence of frontwoman Marion Bascoul, the band delivers a record that is both fiercely technical and emotionally immersive — exploring the mythic urgency of modern times. Actively bucking genre conventions, AEPHANEMER continues to reinvent their path in the melodic death metal landscape. Utopie is more than just an album — it’s a storm of sound, an ideological reckoning, and a powerful new chapter from one of Europe’s most vital and visionary metal bands!

Following 2022’s massive Pawns & Kings (#1 US Hard Music Albums, #2 US Billboard 200 With Hard Rock Genre, #3 US Current Rock Albums), rock icons ALTER BRIDGE return with their hard-hitting new self-titled album, Alter Bridge. First single "Silent Divide” kicks off with a charging heavy metal-tinged riff before the iconic voice of Myles Kennedy climbs towards a melodic chorus, metallic bridge and epic harmonic solo! Catch ALTER BRIDGE on tour in Europe next year with Daughtry and Sevendust!
