Anamore – Invisible (Covering Daniel Ingram) | Electronic Rock

A few weeks ago, Anamore dropped this fantastic cover of a lesser known song from the EQG universe, “Invisible,” and she’s turned it into a rousing anthem! It’s a fusion of many styles and genres with its electric guitar and bass, lively rock drums, bouncy synths, subtle strings, and even some scratching thrown in on the low end and glitchy sounds in the beginning. Her vocals are simultaneously soft and crisp, and her performance is spot on! The song’s subject is one I think many of us have related to at one point or another, so thanks for putting in all the effort to make such a lovely cover ❤

Jacqueling – Адреналин/Adrenaline (ft. Rem) | Metal

Always fun to have some metal, and Jacqueling (formerly Burning Gryphon) and Rem really bring the fire! Between her upbeat guitars, fast paced drums and the fun Russian lyrics sung by Rem and written by Hanyuu this track is definitely a must listen and I can really recommend it, even if you don’t understand the lyrics you can more then enjoy what all people involved have put together!

MelodyBrony – It Wasn’t Nice Knowing You (feat. Blackened Blue) | Metal

Given the impact Misty has had on the Fandom as of late, she is becoming another darling for fans with surging popularity; It was only a matter of time before music like this was going to happen, fantasizing a turn for the better for Misty’s Character Arch, and Melodybrony is happy to make a track about Misty’s future about-face with her alignment with Opaline. The lyrics set it up perfectly with Misty’s frustration, being fed up with being treated poorly and being told lies and half-truths, being treated like cannon fodder. The lyrics drive that Misty wants something so much more for herself. As Metal only can, the hard rock and metalcore melodies light your senses with the emotion of breaking free of your chains from those holding you down. Hardcore and uplifting, I’m sure Misty lovers will find this track a delight! As always, this Qilin asks you to judge for yourself.

Blackened Blue – Everfree (feat. Gloomrot and Blitzy) | Metal

Blackened Blue never disappoints with his banger tracks and this one is no exception! Teaming up with Gloomrot and Blitzy he brings us this banger dedicated to the Everfree Forest, probably the most eerie location the show has given us, mentioning things like poison joke and timber wolves. Together with the awesome bars by Gloom and Blitzy and Blackened’s vocals and instrumentals this one is definitely worth a listen!

PrinceWhateverer – Friends in Maretime | Metalcore

We knew this was gonna be awesome, we all did, but damn this is so much better then expected! This song has been called a bit of a spiritual successor to Solidarity, and you can see it when you have a look at the lyrics, but first, instrumental!
We start out acoustic, folk sounding, before with a big vocal fill Prince hits us right into the face with the full Metalcore power! This track has all a banger needs, from the drums and guitars to the fun vocal fills, this one’s a track for the ages and the highest quality of rock that’s out there!
Now, the instrumental make this awesome, but the what truly makes this the banger of the century is the lyrics!
And here you can hear why it feels like a successor to Solidarity. While Solidarity was all about looking back on the fun memories, Friends in Maretime starts out with “So don’t look back now”, and that’s just the start, the track is full of lovely lines and has verses dedicated to each of our pony friends, from pegasi with broken wings to fleeing from Bridlewood and tackling what ponies have been taught for all this time.
There’s so much more amazing about this track so definitely give it a listen and put it onto all your playlists!

Blurain – The Vow (Of Silence) | Alt. Rock

Blurain’s latest hit is about our favorite Kirin episode from G4. The intro makes good use of contrast, alternating between different guitar sounds before letting rip in the main chorus. The track is particularly intense in the middle with Blurain dropping to a whisper only to follow with a rousing scream! The rest of his vocal performance is equally impressive and his voice has a lovely twang to it which gives the song so much character. Keep your ears open for the lyrics too! There’s tons of great pairings such as “let their words find their release” and “make you keep your peace” which perfectly and poetically describe the Kirin’s tale. Fantastic job! I can’t wait to hear what you make next.

Blurain – Wind Sprint | Alternative Rock

If you aren’t watching newcomer Blurain yet, get them on your radar! Tackling the very tough issue of separated parents beginning to date new partners, Blurain brings us this empathetic rock track dedicated to an underappreciated one-off character, the titular Wind Sprint. Singing from the heart and personal experience, the newcomer blends the best parts of pop-punk and grunge into an awesome, edgy, and optimistic tribute to the purple filly.

Mare in the Rain – Reasons to Live feat. Chaos Angel (Friendship Was Magic pt.2) | Metalcore

We’ve all had a time when we felt weak and lost faith in ourselves, but these pains will fade away only if we choose to remain hopeful. Whether it be for someone special or our future, there is always a reason for us to live freely and pursue what we desire, just like this exuberant metalcore banger “Reasons to Live”. Collaboratively created by Mare in the Rain and ChaosAngel, this energetic tune and its thought-provoking lyrics inspire us to reflect on our life and aspiration. But the scream and growl don’t stop there as an upcoming dramatic twist immediately brings life to this metal masterpiece and releases countless emotions in a billion shades and tones. Regardless of what they are, there are always a million reasons to scream out our dreams, unleash our sentiments, and live the life we want. It is something that keeps us strong, something that keeps us and our dreams alive, and this song has exactly demonstrated such. Give this song a listen if you’re searching for something to spark hope and energy in your life!

Blurain – Breaking The Day | Alt. Rock

It is always nice to see a new name dip their toe (hoof?) in the brony music scene, especially when they’ve been a part of the fandom for nearly a decade prior. Blurain’s second pony track “Breaking the Day” features an amazing buildup to brilliant overlaying vocals/harmonies as well as showcases his incredible talent at the guitar. However, it is the overall message of the song that shines the brightest to me as it speaks of Daybreaker’s persuasion to let Celestia unleash her “darker” side. Umm, yes please! Absolutely perfect in conjunction to his guitar style. I certainly cannot wait to see what other pieces Blurain has in store for the future.
