Six Feet Under – Graveyard Classics IV: Number of the Priest

May 12, 2016 Vinterd

 Six Feet Under are one of those bands that I know and respect with my entire being, but I just could never get into them. They just never really had that right sound for me to make me go “this … Continue reading Six Feet Under – Graveyard Classics IV: Number of the Priest

Ocean of Grief – Fortress of My Dark Self

May 10, 2016 Vinterd

 Death and doom metal are some of my favorite sub-genres of metal simply because of the overwhelming amount of bands between those two. Ocean of Grief, however, manage to be one of those few bands that combine the two to … Continue reading Ocean of Grief – Fortress of My Dark Self

Rotheads – Unfazed By Death

May 6, 2016 Vinterd

 When it comes down to the old school, there just isn’t as much real talent from the real old school of death metal anymore. Too many times death metal bands will just say they’re old school when they’re fucking not just to appeal to … Continue reading Rotheads – Unfazed By Death

Feared – Reborn

May 4, 2016 Vinterd

 Anyone who has followed these reviews for a fairly long time knows how big I am into Feared. They are easily my favorite death metal band on the fucking planet, but as with every fanboy’s band there’s always a certain … Continue reading Feared – Reborn

Serpent Spells – Mantras Within Ascending Fire

April 28, 2016 Vinterd

 The whole concept behind blackened death metal is to combine something raw (the black) and something brutal (the death) in order to create something that could peel away the rotting earth itself. And there’s not much “diversity” amongst the bands … Continue reading Serpent Spells – Mantras Within Ascending Fire

Godless – Centuries of Decadence

April 27, 2016 Vinterd

 The idea of a super group is what? There’s no idea, really, just people from “well known” bands coming together to create a band of their own that is anticipated to make awesome shit because the musicians are all known … Continue reading Godless – Centuries of Decadence

DevilDriver – Trust No One

April 26, 2016 Vinterd

 DevilDriver for me has always been one of those bands that sound like many others (or others sound like them, whatever) and they have appealed to me with their feel and overall sound, but I’ve never been able to get … Continue reading DevilDriver – Trust No One

Gorgosaur – Lurking Among Corpses

April 25, 2016 Vinterd

 Death metal is such a wide genre with as more bands than could create their own country should they all decide to live amongst each in the same area. And with so many groups trying to be progressive, new, and/or … Continue reading Gorgosaur – Lurking Among Corpses

Gojira – Stranded (single)

April 23, 2016 Vinterd

 I feel it’s safe to say that plenty of if not most of progressive metal fans can find fuck tons enjoyment out of the excellence that Gojira have managed to put out in their legendary career. Talking about topics that … Continue reading Gojira – Stranded (single)

Vulture Wings – Funeral Grounds

April 21, 2016 Vinterd

 There’s a million, million death metal bands out there all over the world, we all know this to be an absolute, and sometimes unfortunate, fact. So after listening to a fuck ton of generic death bands for as long and … Continue reading Vulture Wings – Funeral Grounds
