Clouds – Dor

November 21, 2018 Vinterd

 More often than not, we as a people listen to music to feel better. It’s something we can all relate to, but every now and then we get something that strikes a different chord altogether. The concept of everything from … Continue reading Clouds – Dor

Arête – Hymnal

November 18, 2018November 19, 2018 Vinterd

 As someone who has only beheld the majesty of mountains and their surrounding grace a handful of times, there’s something very magical about the aspect of nature that they represent. It’s something that’s very hard to put into words but … Continue reading Arête – Hymnal

Jeton Hoxha – Vowel

October 21, 2018October 22, 2018 Vinterd

 Being able to lay down and really immerse yourself into an atmospheric listen is a unique experience that we all know and love as it’s something that’s truly relaxing to the core. It’s something that I do every single day … Continue reading Jeton Hoxha – Vowel

Sol – Before We Disappear

October 12, 2018October 13, 2018 Vinterd

 The last time I saw a band take atmospheric doom metal to great lengths was Ommadon with their extreme take on that idea, and before that, it was Soothsayer back in 2015 with their delicious EP. Two examples over the … Continue reading Sol – Before We Disappear

Eighth Tower Records – Decay, Death and Darkness

October 7, 2018October 8, 2018 Vinterd

 If you’re even the slightest bit into dark art, as in illustrations with dark themes to them (no Harry Potter jokes here), you know the name of Beksiński at the drop of a hat. It’s all but iconic to where we … Continue reading Eighth Tower Records – Decay, Death and Darkness

Crystalmoors / Hordak – Árguma / Ophiusa

October 2, 2018 Vinterd

 Much like what I said but two days ago, the pagan metal is something that I’ve always felt partial to but has always favored it more for the folk elements and spirituality above all else as I love that shit. … Continue reading Crystalmoors / Hordak – Árguma / Ophiusa

Sorcier Des Glaces – s/t

September 15, 2018 Vinterd

 Out of all the bands that adorn the atmospheric black metal fields on Bandcamp, a name that comes up often is Sorcier Des Glaces and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t familiar with them. It’s been a real … Continue reading Sorcier Des Glaces – s/t

Daagh – s/t

September 10, 2018 Vinterd

 A word that I’ve always loved giving to black metal is “cold” as it’s incredibly descriptive, specific, and can mean so much for just black metal. But it’s been such a long time since I’ve been able to call any … Continue reading Daagh – s/t

Soul Dissolution – Nowhere

September 4, 2018 Vinterd

 There are always albums that I see circulating on Bandcamp that I see getting a lot of attention and praise to which I tell myself I’ll get around to listening to it but never do for any number of reasons. … Continue reading Soul Dissolution – Nowhere

Laudare – d.é.o.m.é.

August 21, 2018August 22, 2018 Vinterd

 There is something about most music that many people tend to forget especially in the world of metal where everything tends to be violent and even catastrophic at times: it’s art. We tend to gloss over that fact with many … Continue reading Laudare – d.é.o.m.é.
