Dog days of holiday season are over and it's time to bring back the Week In Metal. As you can see below, after couple weeks of drinking and chilling, record labels and independent artists are back in the high gear spitting the lava from the mountain of heavy metal.

So, in my attempt to control the spill and help us discover new music, every Monday I'll try to create a list of what was released in a previous week with a goal of finding hidden music treasures and in effect increase our ever-growing collections of records.

Obviously that in no way is a complete index and no sane person can ever claim to generate one, that's why I hope in a comment section below you can point me into the records I missed or bands to keep an eye on.

Till next week...
