Spooky season is officially upon us, and as always, there are a ton of metal releases to help ring it in. I’ve gathered as much as I can find here today, but there may be more lurking about; check out that list, but let us know if there’s anything we missed as well.


Steel Arctus – Master of War (Independent) [Heavy/Power Metal]

If your band is ascribing the “epic” descriptor to itself, you had best be ready to turn every aspect of it up to 11. One look at that cover and you’ll know Steel Arctus have done just that: you’ve got a big warrior dude emerging from a mystical gate, a rad demon skull, devils flying around in a blizzard, the whole nine yards. The single preview track available at time of writing befits this ostentatious cover, taking on an arena rock cadence but going infinitely more over the top than anything that could be reasonably described as actual arena rock. The guitars are ever flashy from the leads to the riffs, and the vocals are nuts; “soaring” does not begin to do justice to how high this guy pushes his voice. Keep an eye on this if you’re looking for some power metal with some extra flair. 10/7/22 (Spear)
