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

Fetid Zombie – Epicedia

September 13, 2016September 13, 2016 Vinterd

 There are few bands out there can somehow manage to transcend genre boundaries yet still be able to keep to a core genre. And some of those bands are criminally unknown such as Fetid Zombie. This band is fucking legendary … Continue reading Fetid Zombie – Epicedia

Queen Elephantine – Kala

September 12, 2016September 12, 2016 Vinterd

 Every so often you come across a new band and simply go “what the fuck am I listening to”. Whether it’s a good or bad thing obviously depends on the person, of course, but sometimes there’s a band that comes … Continue reading Queen Elephantine – Kala

Evil Invaders – In For the Kill

September 11, 2016 Vinterd

 There’s nothing quite like some good thrash metal, am I right? Of course I am! It’s thrash done right for the love of all things fast, but the one thing that could make it better is if you were to … Continue reading Evil Invaders – In For the Kill

Skálmöld – Vögguvísur Yggdrasils

September 10, 2016September 10, 2016 Vinterd

 If you ask me there’s a drastic shortage of good folk metal in this wide, wide world. Sure, we got bands like Korplikaani and Ensiferum who are fantastic to listen to, but where’s all that talent that doesn’t seem to get … Continue reading Skálmöld – Vögguvísur Yggdrasils

Kyng – Pristine Warning (single)

September 9, 2016 Vinterd

 Ever since Kyng’s magnificent last album, “Burn the Serum”, the bar was been raised significantly with songs like “Electric Halo” and “Big Ugly Me” absolutely dominating. Many people, including myself, eagerly awaiting to see what else this trio could do … Continue reading Kyng – Pristine Warning (single)

Oldd Wvrms – Ignobilis

September 8, 2016September 8, 2016 Vinterd

 Delving into the world of the weird and abnormal can go plenty of different ways, and it’s either going to end in you being freaked out or wanting more. I hadn’t heard anything remotely weird for a while, but along … Continue reading Oldd Wvrms – Ignobilis

The Re-Stoned – Reptiles Return

September 7, 2016December 7, 2020 Vinterd

 I don’t know about you, but the day of me writing this has been a very long and tiring one for me after a lovely 10-hour shift at work. After trudging myself home, I would’ve killed for something that was … Continue reading The Re-Stoned – Reptiles Return

True Widow – AVVOLGERE

September 6, 2016 Vinterd

 I consider myself to be a jaded person when it comes to the many different styles of metal that are out there in this world. I find a tone of enjoyment out of the fast and the extreme, but I … Continue reading True Widow – AVVOLGERE

Sarcoptes – Songs and Dances of Death

September 5, 2016 Vinterd

 Whenever I see such a vague, detailed, and weird as fuck cover art such as what you’re witnessing now does nothing for me except prompt immediate investigation. I didn’t know what ensued was going to be the most enticing piece … Continue reading Sarcoptes – Songs and Dances of Death

Minenwerfer / 1914 – Ich hatt einen Kameraden

September 4, 2016 Vinterd

 Splits are really my lazy way of finding bands that are like those that I already like. For example: last split I reviewed featured Ende and Sorcier des Glaces, and I’d never heard of SDG beforehand but once I saw … Continue reading Minenwerfer / 1914 – Ich hatt einen Kameraden
