Autumn is upon us! Or at least, it certainly feels like it as pumpkin spice pops back up on menus and stores everywhere start stocking up on Halloween and Christmas decorations for the months ahead. Of course, it's a bit early to be thinking about Christmas (or even Halloween) just yet, so let us offer you something a bit fresher: the best new metal songs this week.
First, the results of last week's vote! There were glimmers of autumnal gloom from the likes of Unto Others and Oceans Of Slumber, but it turns out that a healthy dose of disco metal is just what was needed as Turmion Katilot took third spot on our reader's poll. Above them were newcomers Gore., whose ferocious Babylon clearly struck a note, but the overall champions for the week were nu metal revivalists Uncured, their fast-flow track Manifesto suggesting we should all keep eyes on them come 2025.
