New Music Friday returns for November 6th, 2026, with another ridiculous pile of new albums, EPs, reissues, and underground discoveries.
This week is absolutely stacked. We’re talking new music from Carnifex, Hatebreed, Comeback Kid, Prong, Konvent, Midnight, Saor, Extol, and more, alongside anniversary editions and reissues from KISS, Motörhead, Evanescence, and Big Wreck.
As usual, the real fun is digging past the obvious names. Black metal, death metal, doom, hardcore, progressive metal, stoner rock, post-metal, and plenty of bands that probably deserve more attention than they’re getting. There’s something here for almost every kind of heavy-music obsessive.
