At last, since I'm too indecisive to whittle it down to a smaller number, here's most of the new releases I liked in 2025:
1. Metal LPs
2. Punk/Post-Punk/Goth/Occult Rock
3. Ambient/Electronic/Industrial
4. Folk/Neofolk/Acoustic
5. Black Metal EPs/Demos/Splits/Compilations (👇)

Black Thrash from the guys behind such artists as Odz Manouk, Vox Clamantis and Ildaruni. Highly worth checking out.

wtf this is so cool. death metal + The Chameleons? floating-label.bandcamp.com/…
So beautiful and tranquil. Subtractive ambient dream pop, layering meditative drones and ethereal vocals with hypnotizing ripples of sound like synthetic birdsongs, traces of space rock & psychedelic folk.
A bit like His Name Is Alive but less "fragmented"

Atzay vient d'exhumer l'incarnation madrilène d'un Aghast Neofolk, c'est magnifique.
Enigmatic folk, can't quite tell if it's sanctified or unholy, feels both surreptitiously witchy but also formal in a liturgical sense. Lot of brass action, plus a good dose of post-industrial malaise, very fascinating.
It's kinda like Księżyc, but Spanish

Band is unknown and short-lived ✅
Washy, hazy production ✅
Spacey and psychedelic effects ✅
Deep vampiric voice ✅
Puerto Rico coming through with some great gothic rock (sort of shoegaze-lite), quite atmospheric and lowkey, raw in all the right places

1986 to 1988 was a big time for proto-dungeon synth, with various artists arriving at it from both a darkwave & a progressive electronic/new age angle, however if I were to pinpoint the cradle of the genre it would be here this fateful day in 1986, Norway

May we as a society progress to the point where more new dungeon synth is of THIS ilk. If it doesn't sound like an artifact from a decrepit dusty attic then I don't wanna hear it! No tape wobble? Me no gobble. No tape hiss? Sorry, it's a miss.

My new tape is officially out!
For fans of Mortiis, Summoning, Evol, Depressive Silence among others, it fuses Black Metal and Dungeon Synth elements and tells the tale of a War between Orcs and Ents.
If it interests you please check it out and share, it would mean a lot to me.

Cinq Slovaques en corpse paint sont venus pour nous mettre à genoux. Ils sortent ce jour leur deuxième album et il est malade. Blackened Punk Horrible dans le pire et le meilleur sens du terme. otras-iec.bandcamp.com/album…

on est en plein milieu du mois d'octobre c'est le moment idéal de partager cet hidden gem de goth rock 90's, voix incroyable et passionnée, grosse vibe ethereal wave également et guitares emplies de froideur et de reverb bien comme il faut

I really wish their albums hit as hard for me as this song does, it's such a special one... beautiful communion with the elements, I could go bury myself in a fallow field to this and I think a host of flowers would bloom from my remains

The line between noise rock and shoegaze can be pretty fine, especially when firmly rooted in post-punk! No space left for dreaming here though, the surrounding dereliction's encroach is total.
Raw as dirt and downtrodden much in the same way, deadly stuff

Deule a sorti un album d’une grande beauté.
Doom Rock occulte de coeur en friche, fissuré de blastbeats et de parties jazzy amères. De quoi apaiser mes nostalgiques d’Overmars et mes amoureux de ciel gris.
