T'is the season: the season for celebrating the year that was 2024, that is! It's been another massive year for metal, especially in terms of visibility in the mainstream with everything from Gojira going to the Olympics to Knocked Loose upsetting Facebook parents on Jimmy Kimmel and even Indian metal champs Bloodywood and Ice Nine Kills popping up on Hollywood soundtracks (for Monkey Man and Terrifier 3 respectively).
Each week, we've brought you the latest and greatest new singles from metal's best and brightest bands, covering just about every subgenre in the heavy world from neofolk to thrash metal, metalcore, nu metal, hardcore and beyond. We've also asked you each week to vote for your favourite track, crowning a top three. Now it's time for the big number crunch.
