Portuguese alternative metal band Master Dy is set to release its highly anticipated new single, “Your Favorite Monster,” on July 17, 2026. The release marks another important chapter in the band's growing international trajectory and arrives just before two major live performances in the Brazilian state of Bahia, where the song will be performed for the first time.
The band's northeastern Brazil debut begins on July 18 at Conquista Metal Fest in Vitória da Conquista, a rapidly growing metal festival that has become one of the region's key events for heavy music fans. One day later, on July 19, Master Dy will travel to Salvador to headline a special show at CASA141, bringing its modern blend of alternative metal, gothic atmosphere and emotional intensity to a new audience.
“Your Favorite Monster” explores the strange relationship people develop with the fears, obsessions and inner demons they struggle to overcome. Combining heavy riffs, dark melodies and cinematic textures, the song reflects the band's ongoing artistic evolution while remaining true to the sound that has attracted listeners across Europe and South America.
The release comes during a period of significant growth for Master Dy. Following chart appearances in Brazil and Portugal, international media coverage and an expanding global audience, the band continues to strengthen its presence both online and on stage. The upcoming Bahia performances represent another milestone in that journey, introducing the project to one of Brazil's most passionate metal communities.
Adding even more significance to the trip, the band will be filming throughout the concerts and behind-the-scenes moments in Bahia for the official music video of “Your Favorite Monster.” The production will document the group's first experience performing in the region, as well as the audience's first reactions to the new material.
With new music, new territories and an ambitious vision for the future, Master Dy continues to establish itself as one of the emerging names in modern alternative metal.
“Your Favorite Monster” will be available worldwide on July 17 across all major streaming platforms.
