In recent years, Wikimetal has consistently dedicated a significant portion of its space to promoting new bands, rock and metal releases, and the best songs of the year.

Whether through our "New Releases" playlist featuring the week's latest offerings, updated every Friday, or through the "Discoveries" playlist , a compilation of up-and-coming bands that we constantly update.

This year we had incredible releases , including those from iconic bands and artists like Helloween , Megadeth , Testament , and Sabaton .

Here we've compiled 27 hours of music with 400 tracks, featuring the best songs of 2025. They are listed in (approximate) order of release, with the most recent at the top. A great choice for holiday celebrations!

He has always wanted to help spread heavy metal, which has been the target of so much prejudice over the years.
