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.
