All things must end, and heavy metal's old guard are no exception. But while the news that Megadeth are calling it a day in 2026 has come as a massive shock, there's no need to mourn when so much fantastic new music still makes our world a vibrant and exciting place to discover new things.
That in mind, here are the results of last week's vote! It might've seemed a risk for doom metallers Frayle to take on Lana Del Rey, but it bagged them a very healthy third spot in our poll. Just ahead of them were Trivium, whose Bury Me With My Screams arrived just in time for a spectacular Bloodstock headline performance. But there was no competing with our gold medallist, the team-up between Babymetal and Spiritbox earning My Queen the crown.
