These are the new metal releases for May 22, 2026. This is an interesting week. I don’t really have many big named bands this week. But I have some cool underground finds. I have a few bands from Italy that I was familiar with and the rest of them were new to me, except for the Warning, which is just a single that I want to talk about, so with that being said, let’s get into it. I have 10 releases.
Witching Hour - Descending... Where Time Has Ceased to Exist
As The Sun Falls - Songs From The Veil (2026)
Elvenking - Rites of Disclosure (2026)
Impure Wilhelmina - Le sanglot
Vision Divine - A Clockwork Reverie
Opera IX Veneficium
Embrace of Souls - The Battle Of The Dead
Dark Millennium - Come (2026)
The Warning - Ego (Official Video)
Boys From Heaven - The Wanderer (2026)
