Dead Now – s/t

September 1, 2018September 2, 2018 Vinterd

 Every now and then, notable musicians come together and create a group that has nothing but promise with the attention of many fans from all over eagerly waiting to see the first taste of the new creation. I usually try … Continue reading Dead Now – s/t

Montagne – Spring Birds

August 31, 2018 Vinterd

 Everyone has a few select styles that they like to visit every now and then but can rarely ever enjoy to a good extent. For me, that happens to be hardcore. While I find plenty of enjoyment out of several … Continue reading Montagne – Spring Birds

Toadeater – Demo

August 30, 2018 Vinterd

 The vast majority of the time, I stay away from demos. It’s simply because I’d much rather hear the sound that the band is trying to make in its finished product after going through post-production. I can appreciate the raw … Continue reading Toadeater – Demo

MetaVoid – Heliosophist

August 29, 2018 Vinterd

 There’s always the weird and ever-expanding world of progressive metal to turn to whenever you simply want the energy and ridiculousness of your metal turned up to an absolute eleven right off the bat. The style is always creating crazy … Continue reading MetaVoid – Heliosophist

tide/edit – All My Friends

August 28, 2018August 29, 2018 Vinterd

 The amount of negativity that the genre of metal has can sometimes get real weary every now and then, and sometimes a change of pace is needed. That’s how I felt today when I simply couldn’t find anything heavy that … Continue reading tide/edit – All My Friends

Pig Destroyer – Head Cage

August 27, 2018 Vinterd

 Grindcore has never really been my preferred area of metal given how it’s so raw, visceral, and just the pinnacle of what it means to take music to a truly murderous and unadulterated form. The only album I’ve ever really … Continue reading Pig Destroyer – Head Cage

Lifelost – Dialogues From Beyond

August 26, 2018August 27, 2018 Vinterd

 The concept of wanting to try out different styles for whatever reason you may have is something that I can really get behind. It’s nice to change things up and see what else you can do because you simply want … Continue reading Lifelost – Dialogues From Beyond

Glasir – New Dark Age

August 25, 2018 Vinterd

 Music has long been held as a medium that provides short term release in the form of music that comes but for a few minutes most of the time. But so many bands try to bring something different to the … Continue reading Glasir – New Dark Age

Demonauta – Temaukel, The Spirit Before Time

August 24, 2018December 7, 2020 Vinterd

 The idea of being able to just sit back and let an album wash over you completely to take away the stress of a day is something that many of us rely on when we return home. While metal has … Continue reading Demonauta – Temaukel, The Spirit Before Time

Un – Sentiment

August 23, 2018 Vinterd

 Sifting through the small yet menacing realm of funeral doom metal has become a real treat for me as I love to come crawling back to the style to see what else it has in store for me, even though … Continue reading Un – Sentiment
