Terra Builder – Solar Temple

July 17, 2023July 13, 2023 Vinterd

Always, there are plenty of bands out there that try to carve their own path through the underground. Oftentimes, admirable attempts are made but not much ever comes of such efforts be it due to the band petering out for … Continue reading Terra Builder – Solar Temple

Thorn – Evergloom

July 15, 2023June 17, 2023 Vinterd

Nothing can ever truly compare to an artist whose drive knows not when to stop nor how to deliver something that doesn’t immediately cause people from all over to gravitate toward its grandeur. We are lucky enough to live in … Continue reading Thorn – Evergloom

The Zenith Passage – Datalysium

July 12, 2023June 30, 2023 Vinterd

As one name that has remained a real constant virtually no matter where you turn in the world of technical death metal, it may come as a shock to some that it’s been seven years since we last heard from … Continue reading The Zenith Passage – Datalysium

Nightmarer – Deformity Adrift

July 10, 2023June 30, 2023 Vinterd

In the world of intensity and all things brutal, we truly do live in a time where we have the pick of the litter. More so than ever before, death metal and its contemporaries are more far-flung across the world … Continue reading Nightmarer – Deformity Adrift

Ch’ahom – Ts’ono’ot

July 8, 2023July 8, 2023 Vinterd

Of all the different veins of extreme and dark metal that’s out there, the more ritualistic side of it all is something that I don’t think gets enough credit. You wouldn’t think that such a concept would work if you’ve … Continue reading Ch’ahom – Ts’ono’ot

Astralborne – Across the Aeons

June 30, 2023June 30, 2023 Vinterd

I feel like I’ve been here before, and I don’t know if I will ever get tired of it. The very state of melodic death metal is something to behold as we can see quite the schism happening with the … Continue reading Astralborne – Across the Aeons

Tongues – Formløse Stjerner

June 27, 2023June 17, 2023 Vinterd

We all know a wide variety of bands out there that dare to bring together many different aspects that span the reaches of metal. In every regard, the results understandably vary wildly. It’s not terribly often that we’re met with … Continue reading Tongues – Formløse Stjerner

Orphalis – As the Ashes Settle

June 25, 2023June 2, 2023 Vinterd

It’s always a tricky thing to stand out in any given style no matter how niche it is or even how much it may have blown up in recent times. When it comes to all things related to technical death … Continue reading Orphalis – As the Ashes Settle

Fleshvessel – Yearning: Promethean Fates Sealed

June 23, 2023June 16, 2023 Vinterd

With all that goes on without the punishing realms of all that death metal encompasses, it’s no stretch of the imagination to wonder what happens when someone puts together a performance that not just defies expectations but transforms our understanding … Continue reading Fleshvessel – Yearning: Promethean Fates Sealed

Dead and Dripping – Blackened Cerebral Rifts

June 11, 2023May 14, 2023 Vinterd

It has been far, far too long since I’ve found myself before any body of work from the pulsing realm of brutal death metal and feel as though I walked out from a work that actually did the style justice … Continue reading Dead and Dripping – Blackened Cerebral Rifts
