God – God I

October 11, 2016August 10, 2018 Vinterd

 The name of a band can really tell a lot about the mindset of the band itself. It can be evidence that the band doesn’t take themselves too seriously or they’re being as serious as possible of the genre in … Continue reading God – God I

Azooma – The Act of Eye

October 10, 2016January 1, 2021 Vinterd

 Alright! That’s it! Sit down, kids, right now. Right fucking now! I want you to throw something out the window right now: the stereotype amongst too many people that the only good albums come from bigger, more well-known labels and … Continue reading Azooma – The Act of Eye

Echelon – The Brimstone Aggrandizement

October 9, 2016October 9, 2016 Vinterd

 Sometimes it seems that every single time we ever hear about a new band being formed anymore, it’s always a supergroup made of bands from the likes of either Mastodon, The Dillinger Escape Plan, or some new project from Max … Continue reading Echelon – The Brimstone Aggrandizement

Wovenwar – Honor is Dead

October 8, 2016October 8, 2016 Vinterd

 It’s not very often anymore that I’m impressed with metalcore. The last time it bewildered me was Devil You Know’s last album, and before that, it was all the way back in 2014 with A Breach of Silence. But with … Continue reading Wovenwar – Honor is Dead

Deprive – Temple of the Lost Wisdom

October 8, 2016 Vinterd

 It’d be the biggest understatement to say that the global scene of death metal is not saturated to the point where you could listen to five different bands a day all your life, and never hear the same one twice. … Continue reading Deprive – Temple of the Lost Wisdom

Kyng – Breathe In the Water

October 7, 2016 Vinterd

 Of all the stoner rock bands to have come out of America in recent years, anyone who knows the scene knows for a fucking fact that Kyng is right there at the top. They’ve got a sound that is eternally … Continue reading Kyng – Breathe In the Water

Sepulchral Curse – At the Onset of Extinction

October 6, 2016October 7, 2016 Vinterd

 There are a few countries out there in the world that if I wanted to do a world tour of the best places to see metal at its finest, I’d go to quite a few places. Sweden, India, Greece, and … Continue reading Sepulchral Curse – At the Onset of Extinction

King Hiss – Mastosaurus

October 5, 2016 Vinterd

 Of all the dumb things I do when searching for an album to investigate upon without looking at the corresponding band name, is I judge by the cover art alone. Terrible habit to acquire, but it’s hard to argue that … Continue reading King Hiss – Mastosaurus

Mesarthim – .- -​.​.​. .​.​. . -. -​.​-​. .

October 4, 2016 Vinterd

 When it comes down to who literally dominates the metal scene of Bandcamp, there are quite a few names to be had. But with black metal, there are a few mammoths that constantly get the spotlight with every release: Saor, … Continue reading Mesarthim – .- -​.​.​. .​.​. . -. -​.​-​. .

Ulcerate – Shrines of Paralysis

October 3, 2016October 3, 2016 Vinterd

 I want you to imagine any pure death metal band out there that comes to your head. Cannibal Corpse, Autopsy, Morbid Angel; take your pick! Once you’re done, I want you to bust out a permanent marker because you’re gonna … Continue reading Ulcerate – Shrines of Paralysis
