April is gonna be a massive month for metal. Not only do we get new albums from Epica, Machine Head, Employed To Serve and Ghost, but we'll also be getting our first proper glimpse of this month's Metal Hammer cover star Papa V Perpetua as the Satanic Swedes hit the road in the UK. Top stuff.
But that's besides the point - here are the results of last week's vote! It was a surprisingly tight-run battle for top spot, with Japan's Esprit D'Air taking an admirable third place finish. But even with their Hollywood connections in vocalist Vera Farmiga, The Yagas couldn't beat out the might that is Evanescence and new single Afterlife, a track that proves Amy Lee and co are still alt. metal masters after 20 plus years.
