April is (almost) here! With this week's new releases, we're officially through a quarter of 2025 and already it's shaping up to be massive. Spiritbox, Killswitch Engage, Architects, Arch Enemy, Cradle Of Filth, Deafheaven... to think we've managed to cram that into the first three months of 2025 alone is insane. But, we're not done yet - not by a long shot!
That in mind, here are the results of last week's vote! We'd got a hefty mix of bands in the running last week, but the top three stormed ahead of the competition. In third place, retooled French metalcore mob Novelists gave us Say My Name, in turn being beat out by Dutch symphonic metallers Blackbriar. The overall winners though - by quite some distance - were Lord Of The Lost, the german industrial-goths slinking back into the darkness of earlier records with My Sanctuary.
