Best New Metal Releases October 2022 | Morbikon, Spell, Universally Estranged, Daeva, Chest Rockwell

[@Jack-fj7yc]

No mention of Worm? Surprised

[@TheRealChestRockwell]

Holy shit dude. This is humbling. Thank you!

[@diosrightcalfmuscle4090]

I'm proud that you found the restraint to not include Ripped to Shreds as one of the 5. I know that was hard for you Blayne

[@org0th884]

overrated af

[@zachberres1908]

lot of great stuff here, thanks! check out Worm's "Bluenothing" too!

[@KeithMcKissick]

Lorna Shore - Pain Remains October 14th

[@nicholascaffrey3507]

Woah, wait. Dude. Worm “Bluenothing” ??! Hoping this gets a separate shoutout. After one track it’s already a contender for AOTY for me.

[@arthurmckay4202]

for real

[@MoxFulder92]

Absolutely criminally underrated band.

[@StellarMassOfficial]

It's great to see Chest Rockwell finally getting some notice and some credit. I'm from their hometown, and they've been the best band around for nigh on 20 years. Snow Wolf records as well has been releasing just absolutely great music all round.

[@chkchrycla]

ACID WITCH HAS A NEW ALBUM OUT THIS MONTH! IT IS AMAZING. 🎃

[@nicholascaffrey3507]

Yes! It’s insanely good

[@octavia458]

It's excellent!

[@mrfaust7205]

Lorna Shore - Pain Remains - Oct 14th - Century Media. Hell videos for half the album have already been released

[@Falxifer95]

Since Blayne didn't mentioned it, I will, y'all should keep an eye out on Exordium Mors' new album "As Legends Fade and Gods Die", some relentless black/death/thrash out of New Zealand. It comes out on Halloween, don't miss it.

[@TBaggins96]

That Critical Defiance shirt is sick. They're already working on the next full length btw.

[@davidortega6724]

That Critical Defiance long sleeve thoooo 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mmmnuts5645]

Blayne knows what he's talking about

[@M4rioL]

Prog loves to be so out there that the album was released on a Tuesday LOL

[@isaacjamesbaker]

Stoked for that Daeva release. Saw them a few times and they shred live!

[@KAOTEON]

Listening to Moribkon latest singles and they slay \m/

[@mitchell2719]

Glad to see Spell make the list! Been a fan of their's since the Full Moon Sessions

[@keatonmcsweeney7772]

This Chest Rockwell album is genuinely very fucking good. Would recommend to anyone who was into Ghost's first record, the vocals and mood evoke that album in a big way

[@roblloyd4268]

Spell definitely on my list and will check out Chest Rockwell but top of my list is the new ANTICHRIST IMPERIUM.

[@MrLando0]

Can't wait for that Daeva. Morbikon and Spell look sick too. Love that unreadable Universally Estranged logo.

[@ThrashTIllDeath555]

It's a crime Acid Witch wasn't mentioned their new record fucking rules

[@metallicjohn1986]

Morbikon sound like "Blackened Maiden" from that snippet. Can't say I don't love it

[@markgilbert9769]

Morbikon absolutely SLAYS!

[@SebastianDot]

WORM - Bluenothing!

[@chese84847530ffhf]

I would recommend listening to the new Lorna Shore album this month, it sounds like its gonna be good :)

[@lenalerke]

...yeah exactly, don't close your mind 🤘I really appreciate for those recommendations !!!👌😎

[@bleakblack1657]

That Chest Rockwell surprised me. That you chose it and by how much I liked it. Are you turning a prog page?

[@srv525]

Of all the recommendations, I think I like the Hyper Psychic EP you mention in the video details.

[@Heldevik]

Good video but was hoping to hear a mention of Worms new record!

[@greatmajingo]

The new Lorna Shore album is gonna be huge as well this month

[@cpguy99ify]

Opinions on deathcore notwithstanding, seems odd he left out one of the biggest October releases

[@metaloreo8423]

God I can’t wait for that 😭😭😭😭

[@markgilbert9769]

Some great albums. I preordered 4 of 5. I did check out Deeper Psychosis and I like it. Between Sept releases and Oct preorders I am BROKE. RTS sounds great like usual. Thank you so much Blayne for what you and BangerTV do.

[@flynnhale1243]

Where was the worm blue nothing ep that comes out the at end of the month

[@Samoan_Metalhead]

Thanks for introducing me Universally Estranged mate. 🤘🏾

[@ronniebby3148]

Vancouver's Spell is definitely representing, hey Blayne you missed Firtan having the same album cover art coming out around the same time too.

[@kevinmccaighy8380]

Thank you very much for reminding me about the new Cloud Rat album, Blayne!

[@eldritchbutter44]

Thanks so much for the Spell introduction. Love psychedelic metal!!!

[@gwts1171]

I went and listened to Hyper Psychic (the one song on their Bandcamp page) and it's really cool! Can't wait to hear more. Other than that, I'm kinda excited for the Exhumed album. Thanks, Blayne!

[@ElGatoTriste]

Thanks for the recommendation, now im addicted to Daeva music. Along with Moribund (from In Aphelion) this is one of my top 3 favorite albums of the year so far.

[@mark6302]

The Dimension of Deviant Clusters cover art looks like my insides after I eat spicy food

[@Metalheadauspk]

Thanks Blayne for all these vids...found a lot of interesting stuff because of the monthly vids with the new releases. So cheers and keep up the great work.

[@ronniebby3148]

By the way, you did promote a prog ish record around this time two years ago, it was White Magician's : Dealer of Divinity, and boy thanks to your recommendation I bought the LP and became one of my most played

[@rebelshred]

Idk what i'd do without Blayne and Metal Monthly now. Thank you BangerTV

[@michaelmartinez7158]

Morbikon sounds delish!

[@Hooeylewissukz]

The big releases NEEDS Avantasia! One of the most anticipated Power metal releases this year!

[@visbleskull]

I think these metal picks for the month are interesting!! You have definitely helped me explore bands that I have never heard of for a long time and a few bands that I have heard of for a long time.

[@Frogmonkey095]

Awesome picks as usual. What I'm looking forward to the most is Firtan's new album, "Marter," out the 14th, which ironically has the same exact cover art as the Spell album. Also looking forward to: Acid Witch - Rot Among Us (Oct, 1) (Surprised you didn't mention this one) Lady Luna and the Devil - Vampiric Visions Vol 1: Living Blood (Oct, 7) Faceless Burial - At the Foothills of Deliration (Oct, 7) Embrace of Thorns - Entropy Dynamics (Oct, 10) Bloody Hammers - Washed in the Blood (Oct, 14) Durbatuluk - Erzähle, Baba Jaga (Oct, 14) Cavernous Gate - Voices from a Fathomless Realm (Oct, 14) Avatarium - Death, Where is Your Sting (Oct, 21) Black Math Horseman - Black Math Horseman (Oct, 21) Witch Blade - Månsken (Oct, 21) Goblin Hovel - Whatever Keeps the Lights On (Oct, 22) Mysteria Mystica Aeterna - The Temple of Eosphoros (Oct, 28) September was an insane month for metal. Definitely the best of the year.

[@welcometoskyvalley]

Black math horseman?!?! Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long, long time.

[@zachhoover1276]

Rot Among Us is such a good alubm

[@davidolsen9129]

Since it didn’t come up in the video, here’s another one to look out for. October 7th west coast Thrash Legends Blind Illusion are coming back with a brand new album named “Wrath of the Gods” on Hammerheart Records. Marc Biedermann has an all star cast of Thrash legends to join him including Doug Piercy (Angel Witch and Heathen) and Andy Galeon (Death Angel). The singles have been great, especially the mega funky and riff-filled “Straight as the Crowbar Flies”, but “Protomolecule” isn’t a slouch either. If the rest of the album is as good it’ll probably challenge the new Toxik album for Thrash record of the year. Edit: I originally wrote this came out on the 27, but no. It is out today, Friday the 7th. What a pleasant surprise.

[@joshuacloutier5675]

Blayne mentioning Skid Row and not Lorna Shore... so petty 🤣

[@turtleonspeed6673]

The reccomendations got really good this month

[@mehdilif4490]

Anything tagged Municipal Waste is fine for me

[@jessebrennan7130]

Love Universally Estranged

[@Orangeokie7]

Just from the singles on that Daeva album, I can tell it's going to be a banger! Can't wait to hear the whole thing.

[@grindkrusher]

I believe the new Defleshed ‘Grind over Matter’ is due in October too

[@asmjake5]

One of the best to do DeathThrash. sadly so under-rated. Under the Blade is a top 5 classic

[@Edezart]

Confession: I've listened to that Spell song 14 billion times. I'm about to 14 billion and one it. Fuck all!

[@leonardolaleonardo4924]

How the freaking fuck lord did you not mention WORM....easily the most hyped ep in donks....

[@radicalgambino2959]

Autophagy - Bacteriophage is my album of the month death metal done perfectly

[@keithbenzie1494]

The new Thundering Hooves album ‘Radiance’ is due to drop today. NCS have a full stream and it’s incredible. The very finest blackened metal from the British Isles. ‘Vestiges’ was great, this is next level.

[@yari9166]

Sick shirt! Their latest record is killer 🔥

[@DarthPizza777]

Wow I am Surprised they brought up Stryper. I love that band. It was the band that got me into metal!! 🤘

[@joegallagher8234]

New Psychonaut this month, going to be amazing

[@frittfrall3220]

Hi, I agree with you on what you are saying about Blood Harvest. Whats that other label you mention there when you are talking about Universally Estranged? You mention Blood Harvest and one other label but I can't really be sure what you are saying there.

[@pokemonmandude222]

Can someone make a edit of Blayne inhaling

[@donaldcady3839]

Cloud Rat and Acid Witch bringing the Michigan Metal this October.

[@LickeyWebster]

I work for a shipping company, and as with all shipping companies, packages get destroyed. Contents get lost. About a month ago, maintenance dudes dropped off various broken things that were pried out of a conveyor belt somewhere. Amongst the generally boring rubbish, were two of these Morbikon CDs. One was destroyed, the other was mostly intact. I read the liner notes, saw names I recognized, and immediately looked it up on MA. I had no idea MuniWaste dudes were involved with anyone from Finntroll. It made my day. It sucked to see destroyed CDs. But... Morbikon is on my list.

[@bradjcampbell]

No mention of the new Faceless Burial or Strigoi Albums?? Cmon man!

[@benkahn334]

You forgot the new Worm EP. That is all

[@StevenBeverage]

VoidOath put out a phenomenal death doom concept album based on the Thing. Its one of my favorites of the year for sure. Surprised its not featured on here!

[@derekj5580]

Thanks, Blayne.

[@brandonvaglio5413]

i always associate the name chest rockwell with Handsome Boy Modeling School, but this one seems cool too

[@THEEArmoredSaint]

I had forgotten about Prince Paul!

[@TheRealChestRockwell]

We should’ve changed our name when we found out about him but we kept it because we thought our “established brand” had value 😂.

[@brandonvaglio5413]

@@TheRealChestRockwell You guys sound dope tho, i’ll be sure to check your stuff out when i got some free time this week

[@turtleonspeed6673]

It's finally here!!!!

[@iainmacfarlanehorn4977]

Top notch picks! VAMPIRES VAMPIRES VAMPIRES! 🦇

[@MrRoundthetwist]

Most excited for Magno Interitus by CABAL this month 🔥

[@C.good2damax]

OCT LOOKS COOL!!!!!!!!!

[@fistbanger1720]

Awesome t-shirt man, Critical Defiance from chile!!

[@aaroninlatin]

Well I just preordered two of them

[@paveltorresart]

Wow that Spell cover is EXACTLY the same as the new álbum from Firtan. For a moment I thought it was a mistake but it is in fact the same cover

[@thrashmetaldad]

DAEVA FINALLY COMING OUT WITH A FULL LENGTH!!!!!!!!😃

[@michaelmunn9939]

Blayne love the enforced hat and critical defiance shirt way to rock thrash and crossover

[@MoxFulder92]

Gonna need you guys to give Worm some shine this month

[@lacruzz666]

No Lorna Shore no party 🥃🧐

[@metaladdiction]

You don't hear Noctem down there?? That is a great miss for the October release

[@davidmelladosanchez3192]

New Morbific coming out in October too. I think will be a amazing release

[@UneasyMonkey]

Oct 7th is definitely animal day. Cloud Rat, Goatwhore, Lamb of God, and King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard 🐀🐐🐑🦎

[@arthurmckay4202]

no "Worm - Bluenothing" ? easily one of the best new bands to come out in recent years

[@arthurmckay4202]

out October 28th

[@rowanrobinson]

Morbikon sounds sick. Pumped

[@stevenanderson3936]

You didn't mention Riot City's new album 😭

[@ashyslashy7350]

I was looking thru the comments to see who else might mention them. Can't wait for it! 🤘

[@private7g944]

THEM will release FEAR CITY on OCT 28. Killer band!

[@AlencarFaulkner]

Yes, the world needs more Vampire! and then more Vampire!

[@sadboi7537]

Sick Critical Defiance shirt.

[@Grim_reviews]

Birthday month has some amazing shit🤘

[@PureMetalBanzai]

Hyped for Morbikon!! GIMMIE IT NOW

[@Redrum1981]

Looking forward to Avatarium - Death..where is your Sting 🤘

[@metalpractor5150]

Didn’t Thulsa Doom just come out with their album at the end of September? They’re awesome Death metal. No way Blayne would not give it a shout if he heard them.

[@stevenkilpatrick6397]

The new lamb of God album is brutal stuff

[@franklira4675]

Yo shoutout Daeva shoutout Frank Chin!

[@AliyahDayeVocals]

Seems like at least one band/month uses that Frenzy of Exultations artwork but whatever works haha

[@csantana1971]

No mention of Avatarium?!?

[@getajoel666]

Just a quick tip Blayne: Try pronouncing “Me Saco un Ojo” like “Meh saco un oho”. Which translates to “I pop my eye out”.

[@lorenfarque1571]

NEW VRETH BAND LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@claytonmcniece3462]

Devenial Verdict - Ash Blind drops on October 28. Fresh, dark, heavy. Transcending Obscurity label
