After a bit brief lull in the Heavy News cycle, we’re back - this time, with something a little different. It is hump-day for a lot of you out there. I’d like to ease that whatever-2025-is overarching sensation of dystopia with a nice spread of music singles to nibble on. Check out the picnic basket (actually a link) for: Gaming-OSTs-Go-Metal (Beast in Black/Activision Blizzard), Modern Metal/Hardcore (Age of Ruin), Artsy psych-pop from the UK (Slung), progressive Australiana singer-songwriter Brian Campeau and finally, US black metal outfit Lenax. Bon appetit! Don’t overdo it - plenty more coming soon!
