November 5, 2017 Vinterd

 There’s a very dark side to metal that many people tend to shy away from, even those of us who venture into the more unsightly visions that metal has to offer. The realm I’m talking about is only that’s always … Continue reading Spectral Voice – Eroded Corridors of Unbeing

Wargore – Between Evil and Death

November 2, 2017November 3, 2017 Vinterd

StoneBirds – Time

October 29, 2017October 30, 2017 Vinterd

 One of the greatest things I’ve stumbled across in my unending search for new metal to enjoy is the concept of bringing together psychedelia and doom metal, but it is one that is far from unique. It’s been done so many … Continue reading StoneBirds – Time

October 28, 2017October 29, 2017 Vinterd
