I didn’t want to state the obvious, but if you were holding your breath for a new King Diamond album … so am I lol. Another obvious one is Anthrax, long overdue!
I’m surprised you didn’t put W.A.S.P. as it’s been 9 years, so almost a whole decade since Golgotha. Reidolized was 2018 but I don’t really count that one.
Very nice that you showed Onslaught and Exumer!!!! Warbringer, Harlott, Eternal Champion, Visigoth, Opeth, Nile, Coroner, Mayhem, Gamma Ray, Helstar, Angel Witch, Manowar, Savage Messiah, Dismember...the list is huge!!!!!
I can’t believe it’s been 4 years or more since the ‘Onslaught’… ‘Sodom’ & ‘Testament’ albums were released… & what’s worse is that I still don’t own them!😳Good to see you as always Darcy!🤘🏻
You’re knee deep in the ‘orrible stuff, it’s what you love! I totally understand. The Testament is easy to get, the other 2 will become scarce because of the labels they’re on. Hope you have a great weekend 🤘 Cheers brother
For me it´s the first three Vader albums, we´ve been on tour with them two times in 1997 and 1998. I´ve seen them perform those old songs countless times and love the guys Peter had with him back then. R.I.P. Doc! Those "smaller" bands like Bullet or Ram are my age and they don´t live off of their music, they have families and a job. On top of that the years 2020 and 2021 hurt them big times as well as the fact you just mentioned with people not buying much physical media anymore. On Death Angel, I think Mark´s work with Kerry King slowed down the work on a new DA album. Let´s hope he shouted out all the aggression and get´s back to a more memorable singing style with DA!!!
Vader rules! You might find this surprising, but I have very little interest in that Kerry King album. Put it this way it’s not on pre-order 😂 Cheers brother
Hey Darcy! Well, you have pretty much summoned it up for me along with the additions of King, Mercy and Anthrax. Vader absolutely no doubt. You turned me on to Bullet. I would recommend anybody check out Bullet. They are a fist pumping, air guitaring good time! Whenever I listen to them, I have to grab the broom out of the closet. Lol... I really enjoyed the last Deep Purple album and I like the new single, so I am going to add that one to my list and Stryper. Alice in Chains. Darcy take care my friend, and as always stay heavy!
Yep, I can definitely get behind all of these picks w/ the exception of Vader and Bullet, neither of which I've heard. You mentioned King Diamond and Anthrax in the comments which...yep, absolutely (Anthrax is my favorite band of all time), though I'd take a new Mercyful Fate over a new King Diamond. Personally, I'd also love a new Destruction album and Zetro is saying we might get a new Exodus album by the end of the year. Other than that... - Gamma Ray - Helstar - Vicious Rumors - The reunited Crimson Glory - Helloween - Grave Digger - Running Wild Re: Geneis XIX, I much prefer Tom's "shouting voice" we got on Code Red and M-16 to his "shrieking voice", so while I liked Genesis XIX a lot, it didn't really stick out as this big "return to form" to me like it did for a lot of other people. Idunno...I'm probably in the minority here. Anyways, take care.
Yes let’s hope Gamma Ray is not done for good! Last Running Wild album was in 2021, I’m confident you will see a new one this year. Thanks for the great comment 🤘 Cheers from Planet6Strings
Thank you so much for mentioning (and showing in your background) Onslaught! I think.more people should know them because they are absolutely amazing! Best Thrash out of Europe and i would also love a new album from them. Cheers man.
You are very welcome! It’s easy to talk about Onslaught, and especially about one of my favourite albums of 2020. Thanks for taking the time to watch & comment 🤘 Stay Heavy ~ Darcy
ANCIIENTS (Vancouver, BC) has a new album coming out soon - you often hear of amazing artists that don't receive the recognition they deserve.. I believe this is one of those bands. Thanks again for another great video! Cheers from Texas
This is exactly why I do these type of videos, so much can be shared in the comment section. Thanks for the kind words 🤘 Have a great week my friend :))
Hallo my friend I´m a huge Pro Pain Fan ! Last Album " Voice of Rebellion " (2015) In August I will see them Live here in Germany !😌 Bye and cheers,Heiko
2 band's that i hope will release new music any day now is French power metal band Heavenly as their latest studio release Carpe Diem is 2009 and Finnish Melodic Death/Symphonic Death metal band Eternal Tears of Sorrow and their latest release Saivon Lapsi is 2013 so Over 10 Years and heavenly's case almost 15 Years. Also Sweden Power/Trashmetal band Morgana Lefay as their Latest Studio Recording is 2007 Aberrations Of the mind.
Hi darcy, I’m definitely a death metal dabbler due to the vocals but Vader are on the right side of death, so to speak. As are Graceless from the Netherlands who are amazing. Looking forward to more from onslaught too. Tight last album. Keep up the excellent work sir.
All great choices there Darcy. A couple i can think of off the top of my head are Alice in Chains, Annihilator, Corrosion Of Conformity, Harlott, Sacred Reich, Skeletonwitch, and many many more. Fingers crossed! Hope all is well up north!
Annihilator definitely crossed my mind, I’ll just be happy to finally see those reissues come out … that we’ve been waiting years for! Everything is good here thank you for asking, I hope all is well with you too 🤘
Agree with a lot of those, but I wouldn't be upset if they all took a little longer because I'm almost caught up. I just got the Sodom 40 year album and 1982 EP. I'm ready for a new Unleashed album. I could use a new Satyricon and Orchid album too. Exciter, DBC, Benediction, and Sacrifice are all working on new albums.
That Sodom 40 Years At War is some of best re-recorded material I’ve ever heard, up there with First Strike Still Deadly! Exciter & Sacrifice would be nice too. Have a great week Greg 🤘
Hi Darcy!!! cool idea and great list of band that need a new album ASAP...... it was so nice to see bands like Exumer in your list a super underrated band, also Onslaught. New Armored Saint!!! yes and Death Angel and how about new W.A.S.P?? or Satan?? just to name a few..... cheers and be well
Oh,yeah,Vader! Definitely,the new album is long overdue! Greetings from Poland,by the way! Have you ever checked out another legendary band from Poland-Behemoth? Nergal and his comrades should release a new album this year.
No I haven’t checked Behemoth out that closely, they might be too much for me lol. Vader on the other hand can do no wrong, love those guys! Thanks for always taking part Piotr 🤘 Have a great week :))
Some good choices there Darcy with Sodom, Onslaught, Possessed, Death Angel, Testament and Exhumer, all well overdue for a new album. The last album these bands put out have all been very high standard, so hopefully they can keep the momentum going into a new album.
100% agree on Armored Saint and Ram. Possessed in on tour with Testament and Kreator later this yr, so don't know if that means we'll be getting albums from one, both or neither. Not stating the obvious with KD and/or MF, I'd add Eternal Champion, The Darkness, The Wildhearts, As Darkness Dies, Brainstorm, Chemikilled, Corrosion of Conformity, The Doomsday Kingdom, Helloween and Mothership.
Oh good pick with COC! I’m pretty sure you will see a new Helloween album by September 2025. Thanks as always for getting involved in the comments 🤘 Cheers from Darc Vader lol
For me just off the top of my head would be Opeth, Anthrax, Testament (Chuck Billy says this year but we're almost at the halfway point then we haven't heard anything) and Helloween (the last one was about 3 years ago).
The only group I don't know out of the ten is Bullet. But I definitely agree we need another album from all those groups. When showed Vader, Death Angel and Armored Saint it instantly made me feel like listening to those groups because I haven't listened to those three groups in a little while now. Verygood video brother Darcy take care my friend.🙂🍻🤘
i’m waiting for Death Angel’s new one.. n there’s this band, Demilich.. they only released one album bk in ‘93 called ‘nespithe’… the band still doing gig.. just not sure why can’t they write new materials… would love to hv new album frm them.. n was abt to mention Nocturnus AD before realising they hv released a new one… 😅…. yup.. will get that latest Exumer.. i only hv till ‘the raging tides’.. n def will wait for their new one… not forgetting Corrosion of Conformity.. hopefully there’s a new one coming.. 😅
I have listened to Vader before . I like Sodom and there latest album .Death Angel is very good but they changed but still good. I have Armored Saint " March of the Saint" in vinyl . I love Testament. I've got every Testament album on mp3 . Overkill just about have every album but Overkill's album"Wings of War" seems like it's going in a different direction. I picky with my Death Metal but I enjoy a lot of Trash Metal like Xentrix British Thrash and German like some you mentioned including Destruction.
I was just thinking the other day we were due for a new Sodom album. With the last one, I remember jamming that in the car all time running errands and picking up take out food during the pandemic. Armored Saint does indeed kill it live. Just saw them a few weeks ago with Queensryche - was a great show.
Decrepit Birth would be my DM choice, it’s been forever! (Or a new BrainDrill lol) Visigoth & EternalChampion for Trad Metal. In all these cases it’s been 5 years or more (except maybe Eternal Champion)
Great list,Darcy. I think Bullet are the only band im not aware of. I recently started picking up some RAM albums ( Death, Rod and the new one). Got tickets to see Testament & Kreator later this year ( Anthrax are joining them as well, so should be a killer show). Saw Possessed last year, excellent gig, that last Possessed album is great.🍻🤘
I remember you saying you were going to look into Ram, Svbversvm is probably my favourite. When you add Anthrax to that show it’s even better! Have a great week J-Mac 🤘
Helloween is doing one for 2025 im interested in hearing that. Running Wild obviously. Iron Maiden will probably be years off now unfortunately. I did hear a recent podcast where Louis Svitek days he has an unreleased Mindfunk album with no vocals which id love to hear but Pat Dubar seems to be well away from the scene.
Only 3 years since the last Running Wild album, feels longer thou, regardless I’m always ready for a new one from them! Hope the next Possessed blows us away like the last one 💪 Cheers Mike
Really looking forward to a new RAM album, The Throne Within is my favorite album from them. The closing track Ravnfell is killer! Armored Saint is a band that I have missed. Another one that I will get around to one day🤷♂️
13:05 - oooo Darcy, i just have to say, I 100% agree with you. So much same sounding albums from to many legendary bands today 😢 Maybe idea for your new video in future? I can say Accept is very good example - their last 6 albums sounsa just same for me 😐
I'm looking forward to the new Evildead album that is coming out in just a week or two. I thought the new Atrophy and Morbid Saint albums that recently came out were both really solid. I'm also hoping for a new Possessed. That would be great.
The new Atrophy actually exceeded my expectations, really good comeback album. Yes bring on a new Possessed! Thanks for hanging out with me, always appreciated 🤘 Stay Heavy ~ Darcy
Great video Darcy. Totally agree with your list of bands. One band i would love to see reunite and release new material would be german band Vanize. Great group fronted by Udo Dirkschneider's brother Peter who sounds exactly like him! I would love to see Vicious Rumors and Laaz Rockit release some new material. Have a great metal week brother 🤘 🍻!
Great video Darcy! Definitely agree on Onslaught, Death Angel and Testament, really need new ones from them! Generation Antichrist is my favourite album by Onslaught, I've been wanting to pick it up for years! Vader and Sodom I'm pretty new to, only have 1 album from each (Don't have the latest Sodom but I have the latest Vader). Would be cool to see a new album for both. Never listened to Armoured Saint or Exhumer, and I haven't heard much Possessed. Would be interesting if they made new albums though. The big ones for me would be Killswitch Engage (2019), Trivium (2021), Havok (2020), Exodus (2021) and Anthrax (2016) 😊🤘🏻🤘🏻
I'm waiting for new albums by Savatage, Helloween, Anthrax, Triptykon, and this last two are just wishful thinking but new albums by Watchtower and Realm would be awesome!
With the exception of Ram and Bullet (only because I don't know them) I agree with everything on your list. I'm genuinely shocked at how long it's been for most of these bands. I'd also include: Symphony X Mercyful Fate Shadows Fall Killswitch Engage Morbid Angel Heathen Cheers Darcy!!!
Wow some of these it’s hard to believe how long since the last album seems like only a couple of years but in reality it’s way longer 🤘Vader I need to dig into a lot more, only have one album from them. Great vid mate
I would love to see a new Gamma Ray album, my only request is Kai does all the vocals! I think he has such a unique voice. Thanks for watching 🤘 Cheers from Canada
Great video as always, Darcy! I am a HUGE fan of Bullet! Glad to see someone else who loves them as well. They are criminally underrated. I have all 6 of their albums and an EP. Now that it's been 6 years since their last release, I'm starting to lose hope that they're still together, but let's keep our fingers crossed for a new Bullet album here in 2024! I'm also a huge fan of Exumer. It looks like, as of this very month, they're working on a new album, so hopefully we'll see it later this year! Testament needs to hurry up as well. I checked their website, and it looks like Testament's 2024 schedule is packed the rest of the way - basically from next month up through October/November. I sure hope they can find time to get a new album out. And finally, PLEASE can we get a new Death Angel album?? Of the "Next Big 4" in American thrash's classic era, Death Angel comes second only to Overkill for me. Both of them are in MY Big 4! I know Mark is busy with Kerry King at the moment, but I hope he can devote enough time to getting a new Death Angel album out. I have absolutely zero interest in the new Kerry King project, so I'm just trying to be patient! Cheers!
Let’s hope Bullet is still together and working on the new music. I think they’re awesome & they don’t sound like anybody else! I’m with you on the Kerry King album, less than zero interest! I sure appreciate you taking the time for such a detailed comment 🤘 Cheers James
Try any of their lastest 4 albums, Welcome To The Morbid Reich 2011, Tibi Et Igni 2014, The Empire 2016 or Solitude In Madness 2020. 12 studio albums total, all worth your time! Have a great week G 🤘
Have already seen: Lita Ford. Flotsam and Jetsam. Got tickets for: Cryptopsy. Artillery. Testament, Kreator, Possessed. Jeff Lynne’s ELO. Chicago, Earth Wind & Fire. Working on getting a ticket to see Slayer in October. And California Deathfest in October too. John Fogerty and George Thorogood. Heart.
Testament better move there ass, I am getting anxious. lol.. so many of these I’m waiting on as well brother. Death angel, onslaught for sure.KD and MF is one of those things where I’m no longer expecting it, when it happens ,I’ll be ready but that’s it 😂. Great video. Stay heavy and keep spinning Vader!🤟🤟
Testament fior sure need to put a new album out. Its been a long while. I think Rob said Death Angel might not be till next year. Plus Mark is touring wth Kerry King.
I know it’s a long shot and will probably never happen but I want a brand new Guns N Roses album. An album with all new songs written by Axl, Slash, Duff and the rest of the current band, not the shitty Chinese Democracy reject tracks that they’ve released.
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493 Yeah as far as the new GnR stuff that’s been put out, the only one I liked was “hard skool”. In regards to the new Crüe, I’m in a minority but I liked the song.
The only bands I'm looking for new albums from are: Cauldron Tesla Testament Europe Alice in Chains Give me some new albums from these bands, and I'll be happy.
I’m glad you mentioned Cauldron, they would have been my 11th to add to this video. Nothing since 2018, last album was good but not as good as In Ruin! Thanks for sharing a few that you’re looking forward to 🤘 Take care ~ Darcy
I didn’t want to state the obvious, but if you were holding your breath for a new King Diamond album … so am I lol. Another obvious one is Anthrax, long overdue!
I’m surprised you didn’t put W.A.S.P. as it’s been 9 years, so almost a whole decade since Golgotha. Reidolized was 2018 but I don’t really count that one.
@jbanderson5331 Oh yeah! Good pick, it’s been so long I forgot about them lol.
At least throw out a couple ep's king c'mon man 😬😬😖😖🤟🤟 the new song I saw live slays !!!!
Very nice that you showed Onslaught and Exumer!!!! Warbringer, Harlott, Eternal Champion, Visigoth, Opeth, Nile, Coroner, Mayhem, Gamma Ray, Helstar, Angel Witch, Manowar, Savage Messiah, Dismember...the list is huge!!!!!
Check out the band, All For The King, it's more of a traditional heavy metal but my God I can't stop listening to them!
Ok I will, thanks for the recommendation 🤘
I can’t believe it’s been 4 years or more since the ‘Onslaught’… ‘Sodom’ & ‘Testament’ albums were released… & what’s worse is that I still don’t own them!😳Good to see you as always Darcy!🤘🏻
You’re knee deep in the ‘orrible stuff, it’s what you love! I totally understand. The Testament is easy to get, the other 2 will become scarce because of the labels they’re on. Hope you have a great weekend 🤘 Cheers brother
For me it´s the first three Vader albums, we´ve been on tour with them two times in 1997 and 1998. I´ve seen them perform those old songs countless times and love the guys Peter had with him back then. R.I.P. Doc!
Those "smaller" bands like Bullet or Ram are my age and they don´t live off of their music, they have families and a job. On top of that the years 2020 and 2021 hurt them big times as well as the fact you just mentioned with people not buying much physical media anymore.
On Death Angel, I think Mark´s work with Kerry King slowed down the work on a new DA album. Let´s hope he shouted out all the aggression and get´s back to a more memorable singing style with DA!!!
Vader rules! You might find this surprising, but I have very little interest in that Kerry King album. Put it this way it’s not on pre-order 😂 Cheers brother
Hey Darcy! Well, you have pretty much summoned it up for me along with the additions of King, Mercy and Anthrax. Vader absolutely no doubt. You turned me on to Bullet. I would recommend anybody check out Bullet. They are a fist pumping, air guitaring good time! Whenever I listen to them, I have to grab the broom out of the closet. Lol... I really enjoyed the last Deep Purple album and I like the new single, so I am going to add that one to my list and Stryper. Alice in Chains. Darcy take care my friend, and as always stay heavy!
Yep, I can definitely get behind all of these picks w/ the exception of Vader and Bullet, neither of which I've heard. You mentioned King Diamond and Anthrax in the comments which...yep, absolutely (Anthrax is my favorite band of all time), though I'd take a new Mercyful Fate over a new King Diamond.

- Gamma Ray
- Helstar
- Vicious Rumors
- The reunited Crimson Glory
- Helloween
- Grave Digger
- Running Wild
Re: Geneis XIX, I much prefer Tom's "shouting voice" we got on Code Red and M-16 to his "shrieking voice", so while I liked Genesis XIX a lot, it didn't really stick out as this big "return to form" to me like it did for a lot of other people. Idunno...I'm probably in the minority here. Anyways, take care.
Yes let’s hope Gamma Ray is not done for good! Last Running Wild album was in 2021, I’m confident you will see a new one this year. Thanks for the great comment 🤘 Cheers from Planet6Strings

You are very welcome! It’s easy to talk about Onslaught, and especially about one of my favourite albums of 2020. Thanks for taking the time to watch & comment 🤘 Stay Heavy ~ Darcy
ANCIIENTS (Vancouver, BC) has a new album coming out soon - you often hear of amazing artists that don't receive the recognition they deserve.. I believe this is one of those bands.
Thanks again for another great video! Cheers from Texas
This is exactly why I do these type of videos, so much can be shared in the comment section. Thanks for the kind words 🤘 Have a great week my friend :))
Hallo my friend I´m a huge Pro Pain Fan ! Last Album " Voice of Rebellion " (2015) In August I will see them Live here in Germany !😌

Also Sweden Power/Trashmetal band Morgana Lefay as their Latest Studio Recording is 2007 Aberrations Of the mind.
Great vid thanks. For me above all else I’m wanting new Anthrax. 8 years and counting 😩
Great list, Darcy! I agree, Vader, Sodom, Death Angel, Testament, Possessed should release a new album by now.
Thanks Tony 🤘 Stay Heavy out east!
Hi darcy, I’m definitely a death metal dabbler due to the vocals but Vader are on the right side of death, so to speak. As are Graceless from the Netherlands who are amazing. Looking forward to more from onslaught too. Tight last album. Keep up the excellent work sir.
Another great show Darcy, thanks! Hoping for new albums from Death Angel, Opeth, Savatage and Testament! Keep on Rockin' 🤘
Thanks for the kind words 🤘 A new Savatage would be awesome, definitely a day one purchase for this guy!
All great choices there Darcy. A couple i can think of off the top of my head are Alice in Chains, Annihilator, Corrosion Of Conformity, Harlott, Sacred Reich, Skeletonwitch, and many many more. Fingers crossed! Hope all is well up north!
Annihilator definitely crossed my mind, I’ll just be happy to finally see those reissues come out … that we’ve been waiting years for! Everything is good here thank you for asking, I hope all is well with you too 🤘
Agree with a lot of those, but I wouldn't be upset if they all took a little longer because I'm almost caught up. I just got the Sodom 40 year album and 1982 EP. I'm ready for a new Unleashed album. I could use a new Satyricon and Orchid album too. Exciter, DBC, Benediction, and Sacrifice are all working on new albums.
That Sodom 40 Years At War is some of best re-recorded material I’ve ever heard, up there with First Strike Still Deadly! Exciter & Sacrifice would be nice too. Have a great week Greg 🤘
Hi Darcy!!! cool idea and great list of band that need a new album ASAP...... it was so nice to see bands like Exumer in your list a super underrated band, also Onslaught. New Armored Saint!!! yes and Death Angel and how about new W.A.S.P?? or Satan?? just to name a few..... cheers and be well
I read that iron maiden got top secret plans for next year. I'm hoping it's a new album. These guys never let me down
Oh,yeah,Vader! Definitely,the new album is long overdue! Greetings from Poland,by the way! Have you ever checked out another legendary band from Poland-Behemoth? Nergal and his comrades should release a new album this year.
No I haven’t checked Behemoth out that closely, they might be too much for me lol. Vader on the other hand can do no wrong, love those guys! Thanks for always taking part Piotr 🤘 Have a great week :))
Some good choices there Darcy with Sodom, Onslaught, Possessed, Death Angel, Testament and Exhumer, all well overdue for a new album. The last album these bands put out have all been very high standard, so hopefully they can keep the momentum going into a new album.
I was anticipating a busier year for new releases, but it turns out that I’ve only picked up 6 so far!
100% agree on Armored Saint and Ram. Possessed in on tour with Testament and Kreator later this yr, so don't know if that means we'll be getting albums from one, both or neither.
Not stating the obvious with KD and/or MF, I'd add Eternal Champion, The Darkness, The Wildhearts, As Darkness Dies, Brainstorm, Chemikilled, Corrosion of Conformity, The Doomsday Kingdom, Helloween and Mothership.
Oh good pick with COC! I’m pretty sure you will see a new Helloween album by September 2025. Thanks as always for getting involved in the comments 🤘 Cheers from Darc Vader lol
Symphony X is going on nine years since their last release. That’s starting to get a bit ridiculous..
For me just off the top of my head would be Opeth, Anthrax, Testament (Chuck Billy says this year but we're almost at the halfway point then we haven't heard anything) and Helloween (the last one was about 3 years ago).
Anthrax is long overdue! Helloween should be mid 2025 I’m thinking. Have a great week 🤘 Cheers from Canada
The only group I don't know out of the ten is Bullet. But I definitely agree we need another album from all those groups. When showed Vader, Death Angel and Armored Saint it instantly made me feel like listening to those groups because I haven't listened to those three groups in a little while now.

Diamond and mercyfulF
Decrepit Birth would be my DM choice, it’s been forever! (Or a new BrainDrill lol)
Visigoth & EternalChampion for Trad Metal. In all these cases it’s been 5 years or more (except maybe Eternal Champion)
Great list,Darcy. I think Bullet are the only band im not aware of. I recently started picking up some RAM albums ( Death, Rod and the new one). Got tickets to see Testament & Kreator later this year ( Anthrax are joining them as well, so should be a killer show). Saw Possessed last year, excellent gig, that last Possessed album is great.🍻🤘
I remember you saying you were going to look into Ram, Svbversvm is probably my favourite. When you add Anthrax to that show it’s even better! Have a great week J-Mac 🤘
Helloween is doing one for 2025 im interested in hearing that. Running Wild obviously. Iron Maiden will probably be years off now unfortunately. I did hear a recent podcast where Louis Svitek days he has an unreleased Mindfunk album with no vocals which id love to hear but Pat Dubar seems to be well away from the scene.
Only 3 years since the last Running Wild album, feels longer thou, regardless I’m always ready for a new one from them! Hope the next Possessed blows us away like the last one 💪 Cheers Mike
Good list, also personally waiting for new Grand Magus, Masterplan, Mob Rules albums
Oh yes Masterplan is definitely due, hope Rick Altzi is still on vocals! Thanks for taking the time out to watch & comment 🤘 Take care ~ Darcy
Onslaught is awesome. Sounds of Violence is another great one from them.
Dark Angel, Demolition Hammer and the mighty king Diamond
Yes, let’s get that new King Diamond album out before we’re all in the retirement home 😂
Really looking forward to a new RAM album, The Throne Within is my favorite album from them. The closing track Ravnfell is killer! Armored Saint is a band that I have missed. Another one that I will get around to one day🤷♂️
Oh yeah you’ll get their with Armored Saint, I know that because I’ll be here to remind you 😂 Cheers brother
I go check them out.
Thanks Darcy!
You are very welcome, thank you checking a few out! Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers Marco

The new Atrophy actually exceeded my expectations, really good comeback album. Yes bring on a new Possessed! Thanks for hanging out with me, always appreciated 🤘 Stay Heavy ~ Darcy
Another great video! Leaving for saxon and uriah heep in detroit tonight!!!
I hope you have a blast Charles 🤘 Safe travels
Great video Darcy. Totally agree with your list of bands. One band i would love to see reunite and release new material would be german band Vanize. Great group fronted by Udo Dirkschneider's brother Peter who sounds exactly like him! I would love to see Vicious Rumors and Laaz Rockit release some new material. Have a great metal week brother 🤘 🍻!
Great video Darcy! Definitely agree on Onslaught, Death Angel and Testament, really need new ones from them! Generation Antichrist is my favourite album by Onslaught, I've been wanting to pick it up for years! Vader and Sodom I'm pretty new to, only have 1 album from each (Don't have the latest Sodom but I have the latest Vader). Would be cool to see a new album for both. Never listened to Armoured Saint or Exhumer, and I haven't heard much Possessed. Would be interesting if they made new albums though.
The big ones for me would be Killswitch Engage (2019), Trivium (2021), Havok (2020), Exodus (2021) and Anthrax (2016) 😊🤘🏻🤘🏻
Dismember is my favorite death metal band, I even have them above DEATH.
I'm waiting for new albums by Savatage, Helloween, Anthrax, Triptykon, and this last two are just wishful thinking but new albums by Watchtower and Realm would be awesome!
Hey we all can wish lol. Good pick with Savatage, man I still miss Criss Oliva to this day, he was one of kind! Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers Leo
With the exception of Ram and Bullet (only because I don't know them) I agree with everything on your list.
I'm genuinely shocked at how long it's been for most of these bands.
I'd also include:
Symphony X
Mercyful Fate
Shadows Fall
Killswitch Engage
Morbid Angel
Heathen
Cheers Darcy!!!
You may get your wish on a new Mercyful Fate album, I bet it comes out before King Diamond … I think that one’s been pushed back to 2029 😂 Cheers Mr.D
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493 The new KD album is gonna make Chinese Democracy seem rushed!!!
@@Mr.Davidian 😂🤣
Wow some of these it’s hard to believe how long since the last album seems like only a couple of years but in reality it’s way longer 🤘Vader I need to dig into a lot more, only have one album from them. Great vid mate
Bands that need a new album out … right f#%&$!% now!!: Anthrax, Mercyful Fate, Wasp, Gamma Ray, GUNS N ROSES!!
I would love to see a new Gamma Ray album, my only request is Kai does all the vocals! I think he has such a unique voice. Thanks for watching 🤘 Cheers from Canada
Hallows Eve and Celtic Frost. Hopefully 🙏🏼 we
Great video as always, Darcy! I am a HUGE fan of Bullet! Glad to see someone else who loves them as well. They are criminally underrated. I have all 6 of their albums and an EP. Now that it's been 6 years since their last release, I'm starting to lose hope that they're still together, but let's keep our fingers crossed for a new Bullet album here in 2024!
I'm also a huge fan of Exumer. It looks like, as of this very month, they're working on a new album, so hopefully we'll see it later this year! Testament needs to hurry up as well. I checked their website, and it looks like Testament's 2024 schedule is packed the rest of the way - basically from next month up through October/November. I sure hope they can find time to get a new album out.
And finally, PLEASE can we get a new Death Angel album?? Of the "Next Big 4" in American thrash's classic era, Death Angel comes second only to Overkill for me. Both of them are in MY Big 4! I know Mark is busy with Kerry King at the moment, but I hope he can devote enough time to getting a new Death Angel album out. I have absolutely zero interest in the new Kerry King project, so I'm just trying to be patient! Cheers!
Let’s hope Bullet is still together and working on the new music. I think they’re awesome & they don’t sound like anybody else! I’m with you on the Kerry King album, less than zero interest! I sure appreciate you taking the time for such a detailed comment 🤘 Cheers James
I think Artillery needs a new album. Their debut album "Fear Of Tomorrow'' ,a death/thrash metal masterpiece introduced me to metal.
Hi Darcy, waiting for a new Sacrifice album! Love The Ones I Condemn but that was released a long time ago!
Anthrax. Got my Testy/Kreator ticket for LA.
For me it’s anthrax, Opeth, Tool and the Deftones
Great video Darcy. I don't have anything by Vader, what albums that you have would you recommend? Thanks Darcy!!
Try any of their lastest 4 albums, Welcome To The Morbid Reich 2011, Tibi Et Igni 2014, The Empire 2016 or Solitude In Madness 2020. 12 studio albums total, all worth your time! Have a great week G 🤘

Testament better move there ass, I am getting anxious. lol.. so many of these I’m waiting on as well brother. Death angel, onslaught for sure.KD and MF is one of those things where I’m no longer expecting it, when it happens ,I’ll be ready but that’s it 😂. Great video. Stay heavy and keep spinning Vader!🤟🤟
Thanks for tracking down a couple Vader albums for me, always appreciate your help, brother 🤘 Cheers from Darc Vader
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493😂😂 always man.👊🏻👊🏻
There in the studio now\,,/
Testament fior sure need to put a new album out. Its been a long while. I think Rob said Death Angel might not be till next year. Plus Mark is touring wth Kerry King.
Try finding Ravage spider on the world. Great great cd. Cheers freind
I'll check it out for sure 🤘 Thanks for the recommend :))
Their not releasing it on cd. I wish they would!
I guess you found it and liked it
Yes… we need a new Sodom record. Never heard of Bullet, I will give that a spin. Glad you got tickets to Testament / Kreator. Take care Darcy.
I’m sure you’ll be at the Toronto show 🤘 Cheers brother
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493 Yes sir 🤘🤘
I know it’s a long shot and will probably never happen but I want a brand new Guns N Roses album. An album with all new songs written by Axl, Slash, Duff and the rest of the current band, not the shitty Chinese Democracy reject tracks that they’ve released.
Oh man the couple tracks G’N’R have released are horrific, same with Mötley Crüe’s Dogs Of War 🤦♂️
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493 Hard to believe they're same guys that wrote "Appetite for Destruction". Shows you how integral Izzy was.
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493
Yeah as far as the new GnR stuff that’s been put out, the only one I liked was “hard skool”. In regards to the new Crüe, I’m in a minority but I liked the song.
45 minutes is the sweet spot for album lengths, over 45 loses my attention and under 45 is not l9ng enough if it's a great album.
It depends on the band for me, but yeah 40-45 for most is perfect!
Helstar
Please no more new Testament. Saw you on the Testament ranking. Cannot do that band after The Ritual!!
You’re done are you ha ha. Yeah fun night with Alan, Marty & Mike 🤘
@@darcysixstringsninelives3493 will always listen to the old Testament. Seems Overkill and Megadeth now and again still have my interest for new stuff
I Like RAM also...
One of my very favourite of the newer bands I listen to for sure!
The only bands I'm looking for new albums from are:
Cauldron
Tesla
Testament
Europe
Alice in Chains
Give me some new albums from these bands, and I'll be happy.
I’m glad you mentioned Cauldron, they would have been my 11th to add to this video. Nothing since 2018, last album was good but not as good as In Ruin! Thanks for sharing a few that you’re looking forward to 🤘 Take care ~ Darcy
