Isla Fortuna – Verity

January 8, 2019 Vinterd

 If you’re anything like me, whenever you listen to psychedelic rock you like the psychedelia at maximum capacity with riffs for fucking days to compliment everything going on real nice. It’s a sprawling landscape of a scene that has allowed … Continue reading Isla Fortuna – Verity

Oldd Wvrms – Codex Tenebris

January 7, 2019 Vinterd

 Many times, to create a great album is to great a unique experience. Some bands manage to accomplish that by more conventional methods as they propel themselves into fame and the limelight of their corner of music, but others intentionally … Continue reading Oldd Wvrms – Codex Tenebris

A Vintage Death – Acrid Death Fragrance

January 6, 2019 Vinterd

Witchers Creed – Awakened From the Tomb…

January 5, 2019 Vinterd

 The original brand of doom is one of those things that have seemingly gone out of style in recent times, but there are always a few select characters out in the world who refuse to let it die. It’s not … Continue reading Witchers Creed – Awakened From the Tomb…

Afraid of Destiny – S.I.G.H.S.

January 4, 2019January 5, 2019 Vinterd

 Of all the many different branches on the massive tree that is metal music, it’s the massive log of a branch that’s black metal holds easily the most amount of diversity in sound in a genre that’s already ridiculously diverse. … Continue reading Afraid of Destiny – S.I.G.H.S.

January – Vive

January 3, 2019 Vinterd

 Music has this weird property where it can feel very much like a living thing with its own pulse and energy about it that really brings the music in question together in a way that very few things can do … Continue reading January – Vive

Shenanigans – Muta In Potenza

January 2, 2019 Vinterd

 Sometimes, it feels as though every other thrash act that I come into contact with hails from Greece and thus, the country has become notorious in my mind for having top-notch thrash to always through around. But, obviously, it’s not … Continue reading Shenanigans – Muta In Potenza

Automb – Esoterica

January 1, 2019January 2, 2019 Vinterd

 There’s not even black metal in America, these days. Sure, there are plenty of notable acts that have made names for themselves over the decades, but it feels like every new act of black metal comes from everywhere except America, … Continue reading Automb – Esoterica

Kosmos Brenner – Cosmic Pyre

December 31, 2018January 1, 2019 Vinterd

 When I sat down tonight to find something to listen to, at first I wanted something psychedelic so I went and looked for some trippy rock to end the day with, and found nothing. So then I thought something atmospheric … Continue reading Kosmos Brenner – Cosmic Pyre

Vampiric – Death Tore Through

December 30, 2018December 31, 2018 Vinterd

 I’ve always been the sort of guy to really dig listening into a band’s very first steps because I love hearing something that could’ve very easily been spawned in someone’s basement or garage. It’s a very raw thing that we … Continue reading Vampiric – Death Tore Through
