Gothenburg’s masterminds of melancholia, Prog Metal act  EVERGREY, hope to bring some cheer for their fans with the announcement of their fifteenth album, Architects Of A New Weave, which will be released on June 5, 2026 via Napalm Records, just days before the band takes the stage as special guest to  Iron Maiden, for two shows on their Run For Your Lives World Tour.

The band will soon follow up this news with a music video for their first single, but you will need to stay tuned for when. Personally, I am interested in discovering what music they will bring.


Lead vocalist Tom Englund  explains the story about Architects Of A New Weave:
“We’ve literally never had this much trouble picking singles. And honestly? That’s the best problem we could possibly have. Every song on this record is fighting to be the one you hear first—because we poured everything into making an album we’re flat-out obsessed with. Like always, there are no fillers, no compromises, just twelve tracks we’re stupidly proud of and will be for the rest of our lives. Pre-order the album now and join the weave!”




Pre-Order Architects Of A New Weave HERE:




Architects Of A New Weave’s standout tracks like “The World is on Fire”, “Leaving The Emptiness”, “Heaven”, “The Prophecy”, and their title anthem “Architects Of The New Weave”. Their choruses have been described as "sunlight piercing storm clouds".  In the second half of the album, fellow Gothenburg musicianMikael Stanne (Dark Tranquillity, The Halo Effect, Grand Cadaver, Cemetery Skyline) joins Tom S. Englund in vocal duties for “A Burning Flame”. Architects Of A New Weave was produced by Tom S. Englund and Vikram Shankar, with mixing duties performed by Adam "Nolly" Getgood.

Architects Of A New Weave comes with a bonus album, containing bonus tracks “Heights” and “One Heart”, as well as an album mix of the previously released standalone single “OXYGEN!” (2025). Additionally, it features a demo version of “Longing”, instrumental tracks of “Leaving The Emptiness”, both new songs, as well as a live version of “Falling From The Sun”, the hit single off the previous record, Theories of Emptiness (2024) and continuation of “Ominous” off of A Heartless Portrait (The Orphean Testament) (2022). That is quite a handful for a new release, so hopefully, the fans will enjoy this latest offering from the Swedes.

Formed over thirty years ago in Gothenburg, the band was founded by vocalist Thomas S. Englund and focuses on tracks about their inner psyche and darkness. They have toured across the Western Hemisphere, as well as Central Asia, North and South America. They have released fifteen albums to date, including this upcoming one, and have appeared at festivals such as Download, Sweden Rock Festival, Download Festival, Arvika Festival, Masters of Rock, Storsjöyran and Sziget Festival.

EP Review: Virtue in Vain-Nothing is All I Am

  CoverArtwork Courtesy of San Pr Words Written by Anselm Anderson Today marks the final chapter of an emphatic trilogy by British Metalcore Heavyweights , Virtue in Vain . Nothing is All I Am ' is the third instalment exploring human emotions and psyche.  The trio began their journey in 2015 with their debut EP,  For All You Know is the Mask I Wore ,  focusing on the loss of identity, before 2019's   Dusk//Dawn looking at the consequences of a terrible night out, whilst 'Nothing is All I Am ' focuses on rebuilding a fractured mind. The trio of lead vocalist Hywel Thomas, guitarist Mason Williams, and drummer Daniel Bryant hail from South Wales deliver another dose of metalcore that hits like a sledgehammer to the head. The band replicates what many other British bands of the genre do, but they bring a story behind their music. Their emotional cries blend with powerful riffs and down-tuned instrumentals that resonate long after the music has stopped. Their...
