If you click the disc icon it will play the song in-page. This feature will be expanding to other places as well!

In other music news, Sequenced has a new album for sale for $3. He's trying to save up $1500 for a new music computer so any sales will help him reach his goal.

Check out this progress update Leigh posted for his Lobster Quest game. It wasn't in the front page artist news but deserves some eyeballs!

Animators - ten days left to participate in the Newgrounds Annual Tournament of Animation open round!

Those metal songs are seriously good. Very impressed.

And good luck to Sequenced!

Will we be embedding flash like youtube soon?

There were a lot of crazy awesome submissions to the contest, good work guys, if you won or not, you're all worthy of more attention!

Happy birthday man!

Congrats to the winners and happy birthday tom.

All amazing songs, congrats to the winners! They all deserved to win! Overburn is my personal favorite.

Happy birthday, Tom!

DAMN IT!!!!! Good job to the guys who won, but man I really hoped to score in it :(((((

Fuckin' hardcore. Awesome job.

I like metal and all but I KNEW I should have gone on newgrounds earlier, I missed everything!!

Thanks for the shout out :)

...And have a happy burfdai. <3

HAPPY B-DAY TOM! I made this creepy pic for your b-day.
By the way, the pod cast was AWESOME! See you this weekend! Unless I bitch out :P

text!

WOW these are great!
I fucking LOVE METAL!
oh and happy birthday Tom! I totally remembered and wasn't at all in any way reminded just now by Luis' post...

The lack of Wacky Jack '12 displeases me. That song was seriously good.

Also, happy birthday Tom, you old fart.

i would have instantly bought that out of general principle, but that's not an album. that's not even an extended fucking play, that's five tracks

harsh. It's an EP if you really want to be specific.

Definitely qualifies as an EP, a long one even. It's not odd to call it an album when it's >4 tracks and >20 minutes, even though it's really short.

Awesome! Some really good metal here.

Oh and are we gonna be able to embed these flashy links into news posts eventually?

I would like to congratulate Burn1 with the 2nd place, and thank this MAC for making me get of my ass and write a song :)

Sorry about that typo, Burn7 OFC

Wow, frontpaged with some of the sexiest metal on Newgrounds. I blushed :D

Thanks everybody!

Also, does anyone else find it kind of funny that RobSoundtrack's winning submission is called "OverBurn" and his track reigns over my own? Just a little ironic musing for ya...

Awh, well thanks! :3

Very Excited and watching carefully.
