Chart-topping German symphonic metal icons XANDRIA will release their new studio album, Eclipse, on August 7, 2026, via Napalm Records. The upcoming full-length features eleven tracks that represent the most diverse body of work in the band's discography so far: every song has its own identity-a journey full of discoveries-yet they all belong to the same world. Classic, '80s-inspired metal riffs stand alongside low-tuned modern metal guitars, cinematic orchestral sounds meet Celtic folk influences, and dark electronic elements blend with intimate rock moments, even including a guitar solo that owes more to Pink Floyd than to any metal genre. All songs were orchestrated by two film score composers working in Hollywood: Lukas Geppert, who worked on the scores for Nobody 2 and the latest Final Destination, and Ishaan Tyagi, who has contributed to productions such as Wuthering Heights. CD disc 2: Instrumental Versions.

Xandria: Universal Tales [Vinyl LP]

After numerous world tours, ten full length albums, and globally recognized acclaim, groove metal legends DEVILDRIVER remain full speed ahead in their second decade of decimation. The band recently rounded out their career defining double album Dealing With Demons Vols. 1 & 2. Now out for blood, DEVILDRIVER sets out on a rabid hunt with Strike and Kill dropping July 10, 2026 via Napalm Records. A ferocious lash that honors its namesake with brutal dedication, Strike and Kill holds the blade to your throat, serving up that trademark DEVILDRIVER blend of melodeath elegance, blackened atmosphere, tectonic grooves, and iconic frontman Dez Fafara's visceral delivery. With the return of founding bass legend Jon Miller, Strike and Kill sees DEVILDRIVER return to their carnivorous origin, reigniting the incendiary sound that founded their legacy, a must listen for all fans of the genre.

Top-charting originators of thrash EXODUS have emerged hungrier than ever in 2026. Resurging at full force with their 12th studio album and Napalm Records debut, Goliath (out March 20, 2026), the band reinforces their eternal foothold at the top of thrash metal's hierarchy with 10 of their most diverse, anthemic emissions to date. Further fueled by the widely embraced return of iconic late-era frontman Rob Dukes - first appearing on 2005's Shovel Headed Kill Machine - the album boasts what the band describes as the performance of his life. Goliath is EXODUS' most collaborative record in their four decade-plus history, featuring songs written by several band members and guest contributions from Peter Tägtgren (Hypocrisy, Pain) and violinist Katie Jacoby.
