Daily Reviews for the Global Domination of Metal and Rock Music

Author: Vinterd

I am just a normal metal/rock lover who can honestly listen to almost anything. 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

Ommadon – End Times

April 4, 2018August 10, 2018 Vinterd

 The beauty of doing these reviews is how I can listen to one album years ago that I completely forgot to revisit, and then suddenly see the same band put out a new album which then grasps my attention. It … Continue reading Ommadon – End Times

Mesarthim – The Density Parameter

April 3, 2018April 3, 2018 Vinterd

 For the last few years, Mesarthim has become one of the names to know if you’re any sort of fan of metal featured on Bandcamp as this act consistently tops the site’s charts every single time they put out any … Continue reading Mesarthim – The Density Parameter

Eagle Twin – The Thundering Heard

April 2, 2018 Vinterd

 Duos are always somewhat of a spectacle in my mind as I find it endlessly entertaining to see what two guys can make work when it’d simply be easier to get more people and spread out the workload. It means … Continue reading Eagle Twin – The Thundering Heard

Wrong – Feel Great

April 1, 2018April 2, 2018 Vinterd

 I remember when Wrong put out their eponymous debut not all that long ago, and it was quite the slab to behold. It showed in every capacity that these guys weren’t fucking around by any means whatsoever has their nasty … Continue reading Wrong – Feel Great

Kanseil – Fulische

March 31, 2018April 1, 2018 Vinterd

 One of the first underground folk metal bands that I ever found myself enjoying was Kanseil with their debut album, and I still listen to it to this very day. They bring a very modern sound to the genre while still … Continue reading Kanseil – Fulische

Light the Torch – Revival

March 30, 2018 Vinterd

 When their first album was coming out, Devil You Know quickly became one of the first bands that I became attached to when I first started doing these reviews. It felt right given how the band has helped shaped my … Continue reading Light the Torch – Revival

Metamorphosis – The Secret Art

March 29, 2018March 30, 2018 Vinterd

 Whenever I’m listening to black metal that’s even slightly reminiscent of the old school I’m always wary of it simply because many bands either go way too far or don’t try hard enough to really nail that feeling. Yet, there … Continue reading Metamorphosis – The Secret Art

Black Salvation – Uncertainty Is Bliss

March 28, 2018December 7, 2020 Vinterd

 For whatever reason, Germany has been a hotspot for psychedelic rock with acts like Greenleaf and My Sleeping Karma hailing from the land, and the trend still continues to produce new and exceptional bands. I’ve heard whispers of the name … Continue reading Black Salvation – Uncertainty Is Bliss

Ols – Mszarna

March 27, 2018March 28, 2018 Vinterd

 Any neofolk album is a bold move in it of itself if you ask me. Many musicians dare to try and embody nature and bring it into a format that can properly convey the beauty, tenacity, and the violence of nature … Continue reading Ols – Mszarna

MuN – Opia

March 26, 2018December 7, 2020 Vinterd

 The void is a place that a lot of music tends to find itself in, and many times in black metal who embraces the darkness and dares to carve out recesses even darker and even more sinister than we could … Continue reading MuN – Opia
