This is the closest a band has ever got to Gojira. The brilliant intro, the heavy riff, the powerful vocals and the ending solo make this song one of the greatest metal tracks of this year so far.


There are no words to describe how good this song is. The 90s feel, the modern super-low tones, the atmosphere. Loathe is one of those genre-defining acts, leading to the future of metal mixing its past with its present sound.

A brand new song from Amon Amarth, can't wait to hear their new album. This reminds me a lot of their older albums as well as newer stuff like Twilight of the Thunder God and Jomsviking.

With the release of their new amazing album, 2022 couldn't start in a better way. This one in particular is the most intense track on the album. The atmosphere is great and Lena's screams in the chorus are insanely emotional and powerful.

This legendary band started 2022 with this single; a chaotic and experimental song which features a strong progressive metal influence (most of the vocals reminded me of Between the Buried and Me).
I haven't heard this one, I might eventually give it a listen as a I'm a pretty big voivod fan.
Considering that I'm a pretty big fan of voivod, I might listen to this.

After their previous (and softer) singles, this song shows how heavy these guys can get. Total banger


Symphony X's Michael Romeo created a quite good song with this one. The riffs are really good and this track is a great one to start the progressive metal production of this year.

The craziest melodic death metal band released one of the best tracks of the year so far. The riff, the chorus and the intro melody are sick.




This song features a really good black/doom metal sound. That riff and the overall atmosphere are amazing

This underrated metalcore/alternative metal band might have just made their best track ever. The guitar work is much more solid here than in their previous work, and the overall sound can be considered a huge improvement of their music. The riffs, especially the opening ones, together with the screaming vocals of alena yakshina, who keeps getting better, make this song a gem in the production of this band.





Best song of 2022 so far


It seems like black metal is gonna be huge in 2022, with many songs being released so far. However, this is among the best ones. The riff and the vocals provide a wonderful atmosphere
