Clouds Taste Satanic – The Glitter of Infinite Hell

November 12, 2017August 10, 2018 Vinterd

Stavves – The Desert Gloats

November 11, 2017 Vinterd

 I’ve always felt like black metal can be put in environments much different than woods or space (despite how vast those locations can be made) because the chaos can be morphed so easily if put in the right hands. For … Continue reading Stavves – The Desert Gloats

Exalter – Persecution Automated

November 6, 2017 Vinterd

 For well over a year now, I’ve been singing praises about the Indian metal scene along with its neighboring countries because it’s one that’s just as rich as places like Finland, America, England, and Greece albeit much, much younger. Despite … Continue reading Exalter – Persecution Automated
