Battle Beast – No More Hollywood Endings

February 18, 2019February 19, 2019 Vinterd

 I’ve come across a lot of instances where people tend to not enjoy modern heavy metal acts because they find those acts to be “cheesy” in their lyrical theme or seem stale to them as they’re not doing anything dynamic … Continue reading Battle Beast – No More Hollywood Endings

Týr – Hel

February 17, 2019February 18, 2019 Vinterd

 There are many times that I’ve listened to folk metal that doesn’t have any folk instruments and I just feel as though the music in question is missing some paramount to it becoming truly good, but everything has an exception … Continue reading Týr – Hel

Sollar – Translucent

February 16, 2019February 17, 2019 Vinterd

Devil Master – Satan Spits on Children of Light

February 14, 2019 Vinterd

 Sitting down and listening to punk has always been a bit of an odd thing for me because I feel two things make for a great record of the genre: (1) that feel of a band just rocking the fuck … Continue reading Devil Master – Satan Spits on Children of Light

Black Mass – Warlust

February 13, 2019 Vinterd

 Thrash metal is really the sort of thing that if you’re going to do it, you really have to go all in because otherwise the material isn’t going to have the right power behind it and there just won’t be … Continue reading Black Mass – Warlust

Chalice of Suffering – Lost Eternally

February 12, 2019 Vinterd

 The world of doom is one that is so incredibly varied that it can easily become lost as it also melds into other territories of metal to give us samples of something that’s both beautiful and potent, and the combination … Continue reading Chalice of Suffering – Lost Eternally

Unexplained Sounds Group – Anthology of Contemporary Music from Africa

February 11, 2019 Vinterd

 Should there ever be a study into the very history of music and the very origins of the art, and I’m sure there has been, it would become increasingly clear that many of our modern, Western-influenced works are all derived … Continue reading Unexplained Sounds Group – Anthology of Contemporary Music from Africa

Warfist – Grünberger

February 10, 2019 Vinterd

 Whenever I sit down and listen to any form of thrash, I want something that really buries itself deep into your brain and simply festers to where you can’t stop listening to it for hours and hours. Riffs aren’t mandatory … Continue reading Warfist – Grünberger

Dwarrowdelf – Of Dying Lights

February 9, 2019 Vinterd
