Cattle Decapitation – Medium Rarities

September 21, 2018September 22, 2018 Vinterd

 Of all the styles of metal that we have to choose from, it’s the worlds of grind and anything like brutal death metal that I have a hard time getting into despite my best efforts to get into them from … Continue reading Cattle Decapitation – Medium Rarities

Acts of Swine – Sadistically Speaking

September 20, 2018September 21, 2018 Vinterd

 Something I’ve noticed in both the underground of death and black metal is that a lot of the newer acts that have come out in recent years have a deep-seeded and very understandable adoration of the old school of their … Continue reading Acts of Swine – Sadistically Speaking

Mother Feather – Constellation Baby

September 19, 2018 Vinterd

 A few years ago, Mother Feather was easily one of the bigger surprises that I was gifted from the ever illustrious Metal Blade who many of us never would’ve guessed put this record out. It was a clearly pop rock … Continue reading Mother Feather – Constellation Baby

Apatheia – Konstelacja Dziur

September 18, 2018 Vinterd

 I always find it interesting whenever a band goes for something a little different that helps spice up the album a little bit for whatever reason. Some bands can take whole albums to make a different sound from the last … Continue reading Apatheia – Konstelacja Dziur

The Necromancers – Of Blood and Wine

September 17, 2018December 7, 2020 Vinterd

 The world of heavy psych is one that has been going for decades with the likes of Black Sabbath and Coven being real highlight influences for many bands in the genre. I’m usually more into the style when the psych … Continue reading The Necromancers – Of Blood and Wine

Moss Upon the Skull – In Vengeful Reverence

September 16, 2018September 17, 2018 Vinterd

 I’ve been a fan of death metal for a few years now and I can happily say that I can really enjoy it when a band creates some normal death metal that fits perfectly in the norm of the style … Continue reading Moss Upon the Skull – In Vengeful Reverence

Sorcier Des Glaces – s/t

September 15, 2018 Vinterd

 Out of all the bands that adorn the atmospheric black metal fields on Bandcamp, a name that comes up often is Sorcier Des Glaces and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t familiar with them. It’s been a real … Continue reading Sorcier Des Glaces – s/t

Boethiah – Celestial Gateway

September 14, 2018 Vinterd

 Seeing a band mature is a great privilege that I’ve had during my time doing these reviews, and it’s something I love to talk about up and down because when I boil it all down, seeing a band go from … Continue reading Boethiah – Celestial Gateway

Husmanskost – Ambi-Valence

September 13, 2018 Vinterd

 The vicious world of grind is one that I seldom visit simply because I’ve never been real big into just a sheer wall of massive presence, but I’ve never been opposed to checking it out. I’m always looking for new … Continue reading Husmanskost – Ambi-Valence

Anaal Nathrakh – A New Kind of Horror

September 12, 2018 Vinterd

 Every now and then, the world of metal brings forth an act that refuses to conform to the norm by any means whatsoever. It’s an act that has a mind all its own, one that will only ever see and … Continue reading Anaal Nathrakh – A New Kind of Horror
