Favorite bands: Inter Arma, Manowar, Black Space Riders, Howls of Ebb, Greenleaf, Cannibal Corpse, Whispered

Kafirun – Eschaton

June 19, 2017 Vinterd

 There are some bands out there who take a few years to realize their full potential and thusly grasp the imaginations of many who are fortunate enough to witness blossoming talent. Three years ago, I came across Kafirun’s debut that … Continue reading Kafirun – Eschaton

Nadimac – Besnilo

June 18, 2017June 19, 2017 Vinterd

 In order to create a solid piece of anarchy, you have got to have actual power behind your rage otherwise what comes out just seems random and as if you’re simply angry for no real reason. Thrash is an excellent … Continue reading Nadimac – Besnilo

Obscure Devotion – Ubi Certa Pax Est

June 17, 2017June 18, 2017 Vinterd

 I like my metal raw and unrelentingly vicious as much as the next guy, but sometimes you just want things to be taken back a notch. Just a single notch to go from madness to madness with a structure to … Continue reading Obscure Devotion – Ubi Certa Pax Est

Dying Fetus – Wrong One to Fuck With

June 16, 2017June 17, 2017 Vinterd

 With every new decade comes a new wave of bands that take over the scene almost completely. In the case of many genres, those artists run their course and unfortunately lose their accumulated fan base over time, yet that’s never … Continue reading Dying Fetus – Wrong One to Fuck With

The Nightstalker – A Journey in Hell

June 15, 2017June 16, 2017 Vinterd

 In order to take a journey, you gotta have a destination, right? That’s not always necessarily the case. There doesn’t need to be any sort of goal in mind and you can just enjoy the journey as it happens whether be it … Continue reading The Nightstalker – A Journey in Hell

Stondar – s/t

June 14, 2017August 10, 2018 Vinterd

 The desert is a very unforgiving place to be in as it’s one of the most uninhabitable places on the entire planet. Yet somehow, life still thrives in the sands despite the harsh odds. For a band to embody such … Continue reading Stondar – s/t

Neige et Noirceur – Verglapolis

June 13, 2017June 14, 2017 Vinterd

 To embody the harsh cold that is the frozen north you have got to be familiar with such scenery. You can’t just be some guy from a place like fucking Brazil and do a cold album without once seeing a … Continue reading Neige et Noirceur – Verglapolis

Progenie Terrestre Pura – oltreLuna

June 12, 2017June 12, 2017 Vinterd

 Have you ever wondered what it would be like to explore the great vast beyond our tiny blue orb? Metal hasn’t really been a respectable vessel when it comes to wandering the last frontier, but few bands such as Mesarthim … Continue reading Progenie Terrestre Pura – oltreLuna

Ashcloud – Kingdom of the Damned

June 11, 2017June 12, 2017 Vinterd

 Recently, I’ve been in sort of a drought. The kind where I haven’t encountered many good albums of a specific style. Death metal is what seems to be eluding me lately as I’ve heard very few truly solid records of … Continue reading Ashcloud – Kingdom of the Damned

Område – Nåde

June 10, 2017June 11, 2017 Vinterd

 The whole concept of being forward thinking and unique with your style of music is a desire that has both plagued and enlightened musicians for millennia. Today is no different with their being infinitely more one of a kind styles … Continue reading Område – Nåde
