Almost Honest – Seiches and Sirens

July 7, 2019July 8, 2019 Vinterd

Having experienced the excellence that was the Maryland Doom Fest 2019 not too long ago, I’m still in the mindset where it seems that all I want is some super groovy and heavy material that constantly crosses the boundary between … Continue reading Almost Honest – Seiches and Sirens

Toadeater – Codex

July 6, 2019July 7, 2019 Vinterd

If you ask me, a demo is rarely anything to go off of as it gives us the rawest and earliest sound a band could produce at the beginning of their existence. It’s not often at all that a demo … Continue reading Toadeater – Codex

Hammerhands – Model Citizen

July 5, 2019July 6, 2019 Vinterd

There’s a brand of aggression throughout metal that I just don’t immerse myself in despite my love for it: sludge. It’s so visceral and holds so much excellence in its endless heaviness that it’s hard for me to rip myself … Continue reading Hammerhands – Model Citizen

The world is a wide and large place with so many different people doing so many different things to bring something interesting into the world of metal music, and it’s the land of Scandinavia that we can always rely on … Continue reading Goatskullt – Kinahmia

Moloch Conspiracy – Baclou

July 3, 2019July 4, 2019 Vinterd

If there’s any one single thing that I treasure more above anything else in my music it’s undoubtedly novelty. I have always enjoyed hearing new things as much as I enjoy seeing new acts tackle old sounds because even then … Continue reading Moloch Conspiracy – Baclou

Spreading the Disease – Mindcell

July 2, 2019July 3, 2019 Vinterd

The great vast majority of the time I sit here and try to shove albums down the throats of you people the material tends to hail from the more extreme end of metal as that’s simply what interests me the … Continue reading Spreading the Disease – Mindcell

Crypt Sermon – The Ruins of Fading Light

July 1, 2019July 2, 2019 Vinterd

Every single person who has ever listened to music has a select few bands from whom they want more material. Be it a single band or a long list of tens of acts, we all have a name that we … Continue reading Crypt Sermon – The Ruins of Fading Light

Torche – Admission

June 30, 2019July 1, 2019 Vinterd

While I do very much enjoy inspecting the underground in all of its unending potential that’s to be had, it does behoove one to look up every now and then to really see what the slightly bigger acts are up … Continue reading Torche – Admission

Oenos – Noir II

June 29, 2019June 30, 2019 Vinterd

For those who take the time to sit down and analyze music, we listen to the extent where you can really pick apart the band’s influences just from listening to them. And it’s become a trend where weed is a … Continue reading Oenos – Noir II

King of None – Weightless Waters

June 28, 2019June 29, 2019 Vinterd

It’s been a long loved euphoria of mine to be able to sit back and just kick my feet up whilst listening to some rock that exudes a good time top to bottom as we’re given the very spirit of … Continue reading King of None – Weightless Waters
