Thanks for featuring my band Immortal Construct Nik, huge honor 😁

Thank you for featuring us, and thank you all for listening! Our next release is coming 29th of March, hope to see you there!

Destard makes me feel like Doom Guy

In case anyone was wondering, the Ikinä song is in Finnish

So many great new bands!!! Harkla smashed my face with that breakdown. Destard, Ascera, Leviated, bro all of them are great!!!

Her Last Sight is such an underrated Metalcore band 🔥

I found Orbit Culture few days ago … cant stop listening them

Nick is the friend that knows all the cool bands. I've found so many cool bands thank to him. Thanks 🤘

Thank you for featuring us in your video Nik, we appreciate it! Hope you all enjoy our tracks

for anyone who likes Car Bomb or Meshuggah, check out Weston Super Maim. they released a new album today but they have less than 5k monthly listeners on spotify

My personal recommendation if I sent in a band would be Cyborg Octopus. They're a prog/deathcore band which isn't just heavy breakdowns, and they incorporate some different genres into the mix as well like funk, jazz, and western.

Glad to see IKINÄ get some love, one of my favourite albums last year

I swear, those bands that are heavy and have a perfect mix are instantly on my playlist

Would be very nice if u would do a frequent video like this.

Please keep making these videos Nik! Exposure is so important for up and coming bands. Way to use your platform. 🤘🏻

please PLEASE continue doing this!! we need this.

Thanks for featuring Ikinä! They are mad good!!!!

There’s a band with 52 monthly called Ivy The Roar, listened to their song “Money” goes pretty hard, disgusting vocals if I remember correctly. Artwork is pretty sick too

"6:00 Blood Menace - Vicious Beings" Jake deserves the attention! I hope this video gets him more attention, it's a solo project!

A lot of SOLID recommendations. Nik farming out the hard work and spoon feeding us the results.

I love this!! ❤ Got to know a bunch of new bands i for sure will keep listening!! More of this if possible :)

The vocalist of The Royal was actually one of the last vocalists running for new vocalist of Northlane. Still a great band. The Royal are probably gonna make a comeback. They've been quiet for a few years now.

You gotta check out Wastewalker dude, they got a new album (their 3rd) coming out soon too.

You should check out the song it all goes dark by the midwest borealis. I found the artist from his kerbal space program videos on his channel N9 gaming, and I knew he made some music, but I was blown away when I heard this. Unfortunately, I dont think he has made any other metal songs yet

I haven't watched the full video yet but I really hope Infestantibus is on here! They are absolutely incredible! I've been listening to them since they had only two monthly listeners (now they are at around 100)

Deep diving on Spotify. I found this band called Texas Cut Throat. I can’t stop listening to them

i just added 3 new songs to my playlist. plzzz make more videos like this

Great video! Would love to see more! Sidenote: If you guys aren’t listening to the band Thus Spoke Zarathustra, you should be 😊

These are my favorite NN videos for real. It would be cool if you'd drop the bands and song titles you check out in the description.

So im from a small town in germany, here are a few Bands from my area: Motorjesus (heavy rock) , Cause For Confusion (Modern Metal), Ignition(Heavy Metal), Divine:Zero (Melodic Death Metal), Scornage(kinda-thrash metal/groovy af) ,Fjørt(Post Hardcore) , Never Back Down (HC/Metalcore) , Dedpool(kinda Groove Metal)

you feel invincible when half of them have already been your daily listens 😈😈

More videos like this. Thanks for the new bands.

if you're into like EVERY single genre of metal getting thrown into a song, i highly suggest checking out "Separatist".

I will go follow ALL of them.

I love how much thall was in here. Makes my cold, dead heart a little warmer ☺

Dagon. Has 790 monthly listeners and have some absolute bangers. Its Amon Amarth but istead of Vikings its about Pirates.

broooooo Bodine Wirihana is such an underrated music artist, so cool to see him in this list! Also as a recommendation, you should check out a metal band called The Word of Lawder.

Check out “From A Second Story Window”, they’re so good and go way back to the early 2000s

Check By The Thousands! The homies dropped a new EP today that fucking slaps! Love this type of thing showcasing the underground talent!

one band that I just stumbled upon recently is deathcore band We Are Perspectives. I was SHOCKED when I found out they only had 2k listeners

Has Nik even done We Are Perspectives yet?!?! Total smash!

Everyone should check out Diseased and Depraved. They just dropped their debut album and it’s really good

Ooh, I missed this, but highly recommend Neck of the Woods if you do a stream like this again. They're almost at 2,000 monthly listeners. They're a little Metalcore band from B.C. Canada. I love everything on their debut album "The Passenger". If I had to choose one banger though, I would say listen to Face of the Villain

I don't even know if they're on Spotify, but y'all need to listen to Psychomancer . They're a death metal band from the late-90s from Michigan City, Indiana and are local legends. They put out 2 albums between 1998 and 2002 before breaking up, but they reformed and put out an album in 2018 on Bandcamp. Killer shit if you like that 90s sound.

Dude, I know how much you love KSE, you NEED to check a band from that era called TWELVE TRIBES. The Rebirth of Tragedy and Midwest Pandemic are BANGER albums!

I had heard of a few of these, but thanks for the rec’s

Needs more Japanese recommendations. Where’s my j-metal lovers at during those streams? Or are we all in unfortunate time zones? 😅

"Heavens Die "and "A Knife in the Dark" are pretty good

Thanks Nik. Amazing how many really good bands out there that are so good and many better than the more popular ones. Thanks again

Guys you absolutely must check out “Pleiades Map”, the new single by the band called Saphath:) that’s one of the “you cannot miss” things

One band that has just over 10k is a prog metalcore band called Still Stayer and they go fucking HARD. Please give them a listen sometime Nik. You won’t regret it ❤

When does he usually do this? How do I make suggestions?

You should check out Seasons Awake, they're a deathcore band with two vocalists, two guitarists and a drummer but no bass player.

Blood menace is what they play on a loop in torture chambers 😂

Finally blood menace getting some love

Random but listening to Sirius XM and they featured your song with bad wolves on Octane! So sick to hear so keep doing what you’re doing and I always get a kick out of your content!

An abstract illusion for prog/melo death enjoyers is an absolute must try. Give them a listen trust

*Blood Tsunami*, especially the album "For Faen", but honestly everything they came up with is awesome.

A great small Aussie death metal band is Nembutolik, especially their song Angel of Meth. They're also a band that is unbelievably good live

Check out Primitive - Nightmare and Primitive - Cerberus, they from The Netherlands, amazing stuff!

I was going to submit a song by Bodine Wirihana in this very stream, and I fat fingered and hit CRTL-ALT instead of CTRL-V to paste 😂 so I’m glad someone else had the same instinct

Despite Exile is one that I would suggest. They're some deathcore metalcore mix. The newest album rips

Hell yeah Levitated. "Coincide" has been my favourite workout song for the past year.

Do a less than 100 listeners version so my old metalcore band stands a chance LOL

You need to check out Rise Of The Northstar Nik. Their style is known for melding heavy metal/hardcore punk/hip hop with Japanese pop culture

Please do these more often!

He Who Creates - Echoes One of the most bad ass songs I’ve ever heard.

You have to do a video about the best metal covers of all time.

When is Nik gonna check out Avralize? Lotus is such a banger

You HAVE to check out Bloodywood. They're basically an Indian Folk Nu Metal band.

"Harm" is a band that deserves to be on this list. they have some incredible stuff, even with the female lead cursive singing sometimes.

Thank you for checking is out Nik! We have just started putting out new songs on our channel, if anyone would want to check them out ❤️

The wall windwaker is a banger

THAT riff from harkla is pure fire 🔥

Thanks for this! There are some really cool bands here!

Cyborg Octopus is my go to "small" band recommend. 8k monthly. Def worth a listen

Man, huge shoutout to Levitated. I found like like four days after their album dropped and I had it on repeat for the following week.

But why, Nik, does no one talk about Exotic Animal Petting Zoo? I wish they still made music. Tree of Tongues is incredible.

I like a lot your channel nik

Newcomer and Mortal Reminder were probably the only ones that mildly interested me. None of these bands were particularly remarkable tho.

I suggest Debtors - Sold Values, they have like 100 month listeners or something like that

Harkla and Ikina are great.

you have to hear prism theory, they are on spotify and apple music and has less than 100 monthly listeners

Levitated is absolute heavy af. The break about halfway throught the song is fucking brutal

4:28 can you even say that word anymore, destard? That's destarded. In the good way.

I'd like to recommend Bilmuri, genuinely one of the most unique and fun artists out there. Please check em out if you can

Yoo didn't expect to see IAMONE here, one of my favourite polish bands

Hereafter. Aussies guys with less than a thousand monthly. And they hit hard

Lycanthrope need some spotlights on them, love em!

No one mentioned Ningen Isu? I assume that it doesn't limit to only English singing Metal bands. But they're really a hidden gem, really good.

I recommend COCOBAT honestly mainly a j-punk band, but also any metal band from late 90’s early 00’s I would recommend grasshopper

Overoth- Harbinger of the End Times. So little recognition for a banger song.

Anybody got a compiled list?

So glad The Royal got featured here, been a fan for years

Check out Luzr, from Toronto.

Fugitive is a band I’ve been recommending a lot lately as well as Enforced

I recommend COCOBAT honestly mainly a j-punk band, but also a Nü metal band from late 90’s early 00’s I would recommend grasshopper

Ikinä is Finnish, lyrics in Finnish as well. "Ikinä" might mean "ever" or "never" depending on the context. "Tapa loinen" in "kill the parasite " in English, and so on.

giving a reccomendation, Nejac. They are a really, really unpopular band from Serbia.
