Metal masked marauders Amerakin Overdose has unleashed their latest song and video, “Time Bomb.” Watch the video below and visit their socials for the latest AOD news, including three confirmed festival appearances!
FFO: Mudvayne, Spineshank, A Killer’s Confession
Metal band A Killer’s Confession has shared several 2026 dates, spanning from late winter into early spring. I will include the supporting acts when they are listed, but some shows still have the special guests as “to be determined.” Tickets and VIP are on sale now at akcglobalrecords.com!
Modern post-hardcore project Seaspyre Choir has released their second single, “silence//severance,” and the accompanying music video.
FFO: Alexisonfire, I Prevail, Ice Nine Kills
You can check out Seaspyre Choir and their debut track “spellbound” on their socials and your preferred streaming platform.
Alabama-based rock band Shallow Side has released the video for “No One Wins,” which is track ten on their 2024 album Reflections. Check it out below!
This list is rolling out a lot later than usual, and I’ve gotta be honest – it’s because I failed so miserably at keeping up with releases last year. I mean, I added tracks to my playlist and shared them here, as well as on Facebook and Insta, but I didn’t sit and listen to them until recently. I’ll do better this year, I swear!
And now, here are the fifty songs that really jumped out at me in 2025. A few things to be aware of: I do not rank the tracks in any particular order, and I do not include major label artists (or I try not to, at any rate), nor do I include covers. Last but not least, no band/artist can have more than one song on the list.

Post-hardcore veterans Bring Me The Horizon will be kicking off the North American leg of their Ascension Program 2 Tour in April. This spring run features support from Motionless in White, The Plot in You, and Amira Elfeky. Tickets are available at bmthofficial.com!
I am working on the Top 50 of 2025, and I realized that there were quite a few covers released last year. I don’t include cover songs on that list, so I thought I’d share them here.
Also – Crispin Earl of The Veer Union released Covers Collection, Vol. 2 on December 5th, which includes his renditions of “The Kill” by Thirty Seconds to Mars, “Even in Arcadia” by Sleep Token, and more!
