Daily Reviews for the Global Domination of Metal and Rock Music

Author: Vinterd

I made this one-man review account to listen to good music, meet new and cool bands, and hopefully meet some nice people along the way. Favorite bands: Inter Arma, Manowar, Black Space Riders, Howls of Ebb, Greenleaf, Cannibal Corpse, Whispered

Cryptae – Vestigal

June 7, 2019August 17, 2019 Vinterd

There has been a void in my music habits ever since the separation of Howls of Ebb happened in all of its tragedy, and if you know anything of me, you know that their menacing and hypnotic approach to death … Continue reading Cryptae – Vestigal

Pinkish Black – Concept Unification

June 6, 2019 Vinterd

When I sit down to find something new to listen to, I normally end up finding material that I can pinpoint into a single style of metal or rock and go from there. Easy enough, makes my bullshit works much … Continue reading Pinkish Black – Concept Unification

Inert – Vermin

June 5, 2019June 6, 2019 Vinterd

There are some things that somehow never seem to get old no matter how many times you’ve heard it and no matter how many different takes of it you’ve seen done. Easily, death metal is one of them for me … Continue reading Inert – Vermin

Eighth Tower Records – Drone Islands – Land Raising

June 4, 2019June 5, 2019 Vinterd

There’s a specific art where the very line between music and sound is constantly blurred or just flat out doesn’t exist depending on who you ask. It’s a realm that’s downright unnerving and territory that’s somehow darker than it’s contemporary: … Continue reading Eighth Tower Records – Drone Islands – Land Raising

Cepaluss – Death Fantasies Rise

June 3, 2019June 4, 2019 Vinterd

To scrounge across the very underground of the metal scene itself means to trudge through a lot of material that lacks so much, but there is always glory to be found if you look close enough. It may not be … Continue reading Cepaluss – Death Fantasies Rise

Vulture – Ghastly Waves & Battered Graves

June 2, 2019June 3, 2019 Vinterd

It’s been long contested for years both by me and throngs of other people as to who will carry on the flame of the original sound of heavy metal that’s been around for decades when the legendary bands finally call … Continue reading Vulture – Ghastly Waves & Battered Graves

Dead Acid People – Earth, Weed & Fire

June 1, 2019June 2, 2019 Vinterd

Seeking to improve your craft and better yourself is a concept that every single kind of content creator can relate to on some level. Hell, even someone like me that just types this shit for you all wants to do … Continue reading Dead Acid People – Earth, Weed & Fire

Misanthropic Rage – Towards the Greyscale Aphorysm

May 31, 2019June 1, 2019 Vinterd

To be even remotely original in such a fleshed out and arguably oversaturated scene is to achieve a special kind of greatness that I can’t help but appreciate top to bottom. It’s not often at all that we come across … Continue reading Misanthropic Rage – Towards the Greyscale Aphorysm

Ornamentos del Miedo – Este No Es Tu Hogar

May 30, 2019 Vinterd

Being poignant with your lyrics is something that everyone has been exposed to at least several hundred times throughout their life, and that content making an impact on the surrounding music is far from uncommon, but I firmly believe that … Continue reading Ornamentos del Miedo – Este No Es Tu Hogar

Roadsaw – Tinnitus the Night

May 29, 2019May 30, 2019 Vinterd

The ability to turn on an album on a drive and have that material put you in a good mindset while you’re driving, enjoying the day, and just not giving a damn about much else is a unique euphoria that … Continue reading Roadsaw – Tinnitus the Night
