August 8, 2018August 9, 2018 Vinterd

 The small region of space rock that I’ve managed to explore has been quite a fruitful one with Black Space Riders easily being my favorite that I’ve come across, and I’ve always been excited to see what else the style … Continue reading La Morte Viene Dallo Spazio – Sky Over Giza

Dark Awake / Regard Extrême – The Odyssey

August 5, 2018August 5, 2018 Vinterd

 Sifting through the massive selection of ambient music nowadays is an incredibly mammoth task as there’s so much to go around and practically no two albums are the same. Unlike with metal or rock, each ambient record I listen to … Continue reading Dark Awake / Regard Extrême – The Odyssey

The Nightly Disease – Smell of Burning Wood

July 28, 2018August 10, 2018 Vinterd

 There’s a certain sense of wonder that is found in almost all instrumental rock and metal albums given how the two styles rely on vocals just as much as the instruments. But styles like doom metal or psychedelic rock are … Continue reading The Nightly Disease – Smell of Burning Wood

Khôrada – Salt

July 21, 2018July 21, 2018 Vinterd

 Each of us has a band that everyone else seems to like, yet we never got into for one reason or another. It’s always a more popular band even if the act is still undoubtedly underground, and for me the … Continue reading Khôrada – Salt

Mesarthim – Coma Wall

July 12, 2018July 13, 2018 Vinterd

 There are very few things as satisfying in the world of music as much as consistency. No, I don’t mean consistency in terms of sound even though it can be very nice if done correctly. In this instance, I’m referring … Continue reading Mesarthim – Coma Wall

Sun Through Eyelids – Hyperborea

July 11, 2018July 12, 2018 Vinterd

 The great thing about the world of ambient music that I can always appreciate no matter what is that every morsel we’re given is the very definition of immersive. Without uttering a single word and sometimes not even using conventional … Continue reading Sun Through Eyelids – Hyperborea

Ignis – Sic Transit Gloria Mundi

July 10, 2018 Vinterd

 If you were to just glimpse at the black metal scene on Bandcamp for even a second, you’ll see that it’s the atmospheric variety that dominates an absolute fuck ton of the greater presence of black metal. It’s an interesting … Continue reading Ignis – Sic Transit Gloria Mundi

Kreiviskai – Nonregnum

July 5, 2018 Vinterd

 For a long time, the world of neofolk has been a good way to put me in a good mood. Yet, I haven’t really gone far into that little corner of music for no real reason in particular. I simply … Continue reading Kreiviskai – Nonregnum

Great Cold Emptiness – Miles Before I Sleep

July 2, 2018July 2, 2018 Vinterd

 If you’re even a little familiar with the current black metal scene you’ll notice that atmosphere is literally everywhere. It seems to permeate every layer of the scene, and at some point, there always come along a few bands that … Continue reading Great Cold Emptiness – Miles Before I Sleep
