Releases of the Month Januar 2026 with The Hirsch Effekt, Zu, HamaSaari, Cold Night for Alligators, Textures, Enshine, Frore 5 Four, Yoni the Bassist, Sloen, Widek, Karambolage, Ascend the Helix, Juodvarnis, Alkaloid, Kostas Sampanis & IOTUNN

The Veer Union – Reinvention

I find the diverse unpredictability of the material appeals to me a lot, despite the shortness of the tracks. These 10 songs are predominately melodic but with an aggressive edge.

SPACE Quartet in Tienen – Progressive Spirit, Pure Improvisation

Yawn - Materialism cover

YAWN – Materialism

“Materialism” kept me on my toes from start to finish. I always admire interesting and avant-garde, but well-balanced approaches to metal like this.

Closure in Moscow Pink Lemonade cover

Closure in Moscow – Pink Lemonade

“Pink Lemonade” is this great album, in which with each re-listen you notice new little details. If you need something wacky ala The Mars Volta in your life, don’t hesitate to give it a try!

Allegaeon – Damnum

The prospect of seeing Allegaeon play at least some of this album live, is mouth-watering indeed. But for now, this new offering from these masters of their craft, will have to suffice.

Zeal & Ardor – Zeal & Ardor

Zeal & Ardor is one of the finest records so far this year. Heartily recommended for everyone who has a healthy appreciation for forward-thinking and adventurous music!

Amorphis_Halo

Amorphis – Halo

“Halo” has the songs, it has the drive and energy and a pristine production that should make every Amorphis fan utterly drool with desire.
