In February 2022, Ukrainian-Polish label Metallurg celebrated their 13th anniversary, and thus a compilation featuring sixteen tracks of different Metal genres was released. The compilation contained Metal from the USA, the UK, Ukraine, Sweden, Russia, Norway, Lithuania, Italy, Germany, Brazil and Austria. Metal is forged here was featured on the old MangoWave page.
