Ringworm – Snake Church

July 13, 2016 Vinterd

 When it come to sheer unadulterated aggression, I’m more of a “go big or go home” kind of guy, and while sometimes a band can make bursts in intensity work amazing well there’s always a level of satisfaction to be … Continue reading Ringworm – Snake Church

Great Reversals – Mere Mortals

July 7, 2016July 8, 2016 Vinterd

 When listening to hardcore, I’m usually a bit more pickier than I typically would. It’s not that I don’t like it, I just have preferences which makes this an already biased piece of shit, but whatever. Great Reversals have shown … Continue reading Great Reversals – Mere Mortals

Aktaion – The Parade of Nature

June 10, 2016 Vinterd

 Aktaion wasted no time when putting out their sophomore album without a doubt as their debut, “Throne”, came out not even a year ago if memory serves well. That was a solid release, but showed the band had plenty of … Continue reading Aktaion – The Parade of Nature

Whitechapel – Mark of the Blade

June 9, 2016 Vinterd

 Of all the many genres, branching paths, forms, or whatever of metal there are, there’s not a lot that I can say I’m not really big into. There are a few, however. Deathcore is definitely one of them. It’s not … Continue reading Whitechapel – Mark of the Blade

Poison Headache – s/t

 When you’re a hardcore band looking to be a good hardcore band you need to do more than just try to be heavy with an aggressive anger seeping through every piece of the music. You gotta make it interesting, make it grab … Continue reading Poison Headache – s/t

Death Will Tremble – Mona

May 5, 2016 Vinterd

 I’ve always been enthralled by doom metal and all the different varieties of it that there are in the world, and with that it always keeps you on your toes because you’ll never know what you’ll hear next. Death Will … Continue reading Death Will Tremble – Mona

Killswitch Engage – Incarnate

March 11, 2016March 11, 2016 Vinterd

 This is the kind of band that requires no introduction. These guys have become legends whether you call them metal or not and every one who pays attention has been waiting for their next big, ridiculous album. Many people thought … Continue reading Killswitch Engage – Incarnate

Enemies – Negative Mental Attitude

March 6, 2016 Vinterd

 Anything with the word “core” attached to it in the world of metal music is almost instantly shot down because of how many people feel about metalcore and deathcore, but so many forget about hardcore. A more metal version of … Continue reading Enemies – Negative Mental Attitude

Khynn – Supersymmetry

February 2, 2016 Vinterd

 Nowadays, it’s really hard to come across a band that isn’t more than one genre in particular without being able to distinguish one that is more common than the rest (ex. more death metal than thrash, but both elements are … Continue reading Khynn – Supersymmetry

Fault Lines – Such Is Life

January 17, 2016 Vinterd

 I’m one of those people that don’t really give a shit about what others have to say about other genres whether they say it’s the shit or it is shit. As a metal head, at least once a week I … Continue reading Fault Lines – Such Is Life
