Tailgunner: Midnight blitz 2026 [Digipack / CD]

Top-charting originators of thrash EXODUS have emerged hungrier than ever in 2026. Resurging at full force with their 12th studio album and Napalm Records debut, Goliath (out March 20, 2026), the band reinforces their eternal foothold at the top of thrash metal's hierarchy with 10 of their most diverse, anthemic emissions to date. Further fueled by the widely embraced return of iconic late-era frontman Rob Dukes – first appearing on 2005’s Shovel Headed Kill Machine – the album boasts what the band describes as the performance of his life. Goliath is EXODUS’ most collaborative record in their four decade-plus history, featuring songs written by several band members and guest contributions from Peter Tägtgren (Hypocrisy, Pain) and violinist Katie Jacoby.

NERVOSA unleashes another round of fury on their new album, Slave Machine, out April 3, 2026 via Napalm Records. Album number six has the all-female thrash band release their inner beasts at staggering speed and with formidable emphasis. Having played the biggest metal festivals, from Wacken to Hellfest, making a lasting impression on fans and critics alike, and establishing founding guitarist Prika Amaral as their new singer with the previous record, Jailbreak (2023), NERVOSA aims to bridge the gap between old- school power and critical modernity. Once again working with DESTRUCTION's Martin Furia, Slave Machine is a crushing statement-it comes, sees, and conquers.

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!

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.

Gems: Year of the Snake [CD]

When BURNING WITCHES take the stage, the world trembles beneath their firestorm of heavy metal might. On their sixth studio album, Inquisition, out August 22, 2025 via Napalm Records, the Swiss powerhouse returns with a darker, more thunderous brew — diving headfirst into the themes of medieval persecution, religious oppression, and the unbreakable spirit of resistance. Featuring 12 brand-new tracks, the album marks a bold new era: forged in the flames of power/heavy metal, sharpened by anthemic songwriting and epic instrumentation.
