Summer downpours. Typical. With glorious weather for seemingly every major metal festival since the pandemic, it was inevitable that eventually we were going to see the scale flip, and unfortunately both Wacken and Metal Days have suffered this week from torrential rain. But, we can't get too sad - especially not when there's still so much great new music to dive into.
But first, the results of last week's vote! There were plenty of solid names in the running last week, including KK's Priest, Sevendust and Heart Of A Coward, but it was new blood that won the day as Conquer Divide's New Heaven took top spot over the latest efforts from Of Mice & Men - who took a very admirable second space - and deathcore rising stars Slaughter To Prevail.
