I don’t think I’ll make this a regular feature as it’s a ton of work and I don’t have time, but it seems that a lot of albums drop on a Friday. Also, I just wanted to highlight how varied the rock/metal world is and how many bands are actively releasing new material.
These are the releases that we know of for today – May 27th, 2016. I’m sure there are many more! Apologies that I don’t have time to embed links for every band – if they sound like your sort of thing then Google them or look them up on facebook! Most importantly, though, if you like what you find then buy that album / EP. It’s us who keep this scene alive.
