Ysengrin – Réincrudation

March 9, 2019 Vinterd

The closing days of a band are never anything to look forward to as it means the end of an era in the lives of multiple people and then end of a stream of enjoyment for many more. Ysengrin is … Continue reading Ysengrin – Réincrudation

June 1974 – Nemesi

March 8, 2019March 9, 2019 Vinterd

Much of the time that I go to sit down and listen to something instrumental, it’s always to take my mind off the day that I’ve had and simply allow the soundscapes to wash over me completely with the music … Continue reading June 1974 – Nemesi

Gjendød – Krigsdoger

March 7, 2019 Vinterd

The world of Norwegian black metal is one that I’m quite familiar with as it’s a style that I sunk myself into many times when I first discovered the style years ago, but I came out only really enjoying a … Continue reading Gjendød – Krigsdoger

Sílení- Long Forgotten Bowers

March 6, 2019March 7, 2019 Vinterd

Many times, it feels as though life only ever works in a one-two punch scenario with certain things. Whenever one thing happens, the next is sure to immediately follow, and it’s with the world of ambient that it has constantly … Continue reading Sílení- Long Forgotten Bowers

Morderca – Demo

March 5, 2019 Vinterd

With all the many different takes on death metal that there are in this world with all the many different bands there are, it’s a wonder to me that crust hasn’t made its way into death metal more than it … Continue reading Morderca – Demo

Obszön Geschöpf – Master of Giallo

March 4, 2019 Vinterd

It’s a simple fact of music that every band has to end at some point, but that doesn’t stop some bands from refusing to quit even after decades of putting out music. Metal and rock have taken such an idea … Continue reading Obszön Geschöpf – Master of Giallo

NocturN – Thrones of Deception

March 3, 2019 Vinterd

The riff is something that we’ve all seen within the world of black metal for literally decades now, and, thankfully, it shows no signs of going away as there’s something special about the vicious style combined with a good riff … Continue reading NocturN – Thrones of Deception

Moloch Conspiracy – Kur

March 2, 2019March 3, 2019 Vinterd

I’ve always found it fun and necessary for me to change up my listening habits every now and then. A simple change of pace and breath of fresh air is the sort of thing that can reinvigorate the mind in … Continue reading Moloch Conspiracy – Kur

Cities of Mars – The Horologist

March 1, 2019 Vinterd

The art of potent psychedelia is the sort of thing that simply cannot get enough praise. It’s something that a seemingly infinite number of bands have tried their hands at ever since the first psychedelic music concoction, and it’s led … Continue reading Cities of Mars – The Horologist

Vanum – Ageless Fire

February 28, 2019March 1, 2019 Vinterd

I’ve said it so many times over the course of my time and I’m going to say it again – there are very few pleasures that I get out of these reviews than coming back to a band that I’ve … Continue reading Vanum – Ageless Fire
