Swedish melodic metal pioneers Neptune have released the official video for “Brightest Steel” , taken from their latest album End of Time , which dropped September 20, 2024, via Pride & Joy Music.
Watch the video here:
Formed in the early 1980s, Neptune rose during the golden age of Scandinavian heavy metal, crafting a sound rooted in traditional steel but infused with soaring melodies and sharp songwriting. Often hailed as one of Sweden’s “lost pioneers,” the band disbanded in the mid-80s, only to return decades later with renewed fire and a sound that continues to resonate with both longtime diehards and younger fans discovering their music for the first time.
End of Time marks Neptune’s third full-length album and stands as a milestone in their long journey. Released in multiple formats (digital, LP, and CD), the record blends old-school heavy metal grit with modern production polish. Songs like the title track “End of Time” , “Metal Hearts” , and the newly spotlighted “Brightest Steel” showcase the band’s ability to walk the line between anthemic melody and heavy-hitting power.
The new video for “Brightest Steel” reflects exactly what has kept Neptune relevant across decades: energy, passion, and an uncompromising dedication to their craft . It’s a testament to their staying power, proving that Neptune’s flame burns just as strong in 2025 as it did when they first emerged from Sweden’s early metal underground.
