Favorite bands: Inter Arma, Manowar, Black Space Riders, Howls of Ebb, Greenleaf, Cannibal Corpse, Whispered

Man Daitorgul – Gosk e’ Vidʒera

July 28, 2019July 29, 2019 Vinterd

A good solid slab of black metal is something whose power can rarely be denied and is the sort of thing that can grab my attention really easily. But, a little bit of flair goes a long way and being … Continue reading Man Daitorgul – Gosk e’ Vidʒera

Wardomized – …A Heated Exchange

July 27, 2019 Vinterd

There are many ways for music to be rebellious with almost every style of every genre being its own little rebellion in its own right in some form. While it’s definitely punk that has got to be the king for … Continue reading Wardomized – …A Heated Exchange

Wormwood – Nattarvet

July 26, 2019 Vinterd

Before Finsterforst came out of seemingly nowhere and astounding me with their upcoming album, there was only one black/folk act that I had my eyes on that I knew was going to impress no matter what: Wormwood. They easily created … Continue reading Wormwood – Nattarvet

Hippie Death Cult – 111

July 25, 2019December 7, 2020 Vinterd

It’s usually when I go into a debut album from any given band that I assume it’s a young band with young musicians who are taking their first steps into the music world with their first honest piece of music … Continue reading Hippie Death Cult – 111

Gravefields – Embrace the Void

July 24, 2019July 25, 2019 Vinterd

It’s every now and then that we get an album that really takes the given genre and the band in question seeks to make an experience out of it. Something that’s immensely grandiose and richly detailed as it’s the sort … Continue reading Gravefields – Embrace the Void

Cherubs – Immaculada High

July 23, 2019 Vinterd

The idea of a drug-fueled party that’s backed by cerebral rock and roll is one that has permeated the very core of the genre for decades now as it captures everything about the rebellious spirit of the genre perfectly. Just … Continue reading Cherubs – Immaculada High

Haunter – Sacramental Death Qualia

July 22, 2019 Vinterd

There are some bands that just refuse to stay confined within reasonable boundaries of genrefication where normal people can pin down their sound and then approach it with some form of confidence in having an idea of what they’re about … Continue reading Haunter – Sacramental Death Qualia

Daxma – Ruins Upon Ruins

July 21, 2019 Vinterd

There are just some works of music that are simply bewildering to listen to no matter if it’s your first time hearing it or your hundredth. They’re the sort of material that captures the beauty of the stars and constantly … Continue reading Daxma – Ruins Upon Ruins

Bones – Diseased

July 20, 2019 Vinterd

There seems to be an attitude that’s making its way through death metal that seeks to tear away at the very concept of the human condition with fire and acid. It’s been happening for a long time but there just … Continue reading Bones – Diseased

Turin Horse – Prohodna

July 19, 2019 Vinterd

To make a soundtrack for the very end of the world is a very novel idea that has seen many attempts over the years across many different forms of music. Foreboding and thick, dark atmospheres with constant pressure are necessary … Continue reading Turin Horse – Prohodna
