Hated – None Are Equal

March 14, 2020March 6, 2020 Vinterd

Chugger – Of Man and Machine

March 6, 2020February 21, 2020 Vinterd

February 29, 2020February 26, 2020 Vinterd

It’s been in the past year, give it or take a few months, that I’ve found myself seemingly swamped by the likes of death/doom and all that the style has to offer nowadays, and I’m very okay with the fact … Continue reading Monumentum Damnati – In the Tomb of a Forgotten King

Xpus – In Umbra Mortis Sedent

February 24, 2020February 21, 2020 Vinterd

The general nastiness of death metal is something that the style has been known for decades at this point, and it’s a pre-requisite for any band of the style more than anything. But, that doesn’t mean it’s done well by … Continue reading Xpus – In Umbra Mortis Sedent

February 15, 2020February 8, 2020 Vinterd

Rotting Kingdom – A Deeper Shade of Sorrow

February 13, 2020February 8, 2020 Vinterd

Clouds – Durere

February 5, 2020January 27, 2020 Vinterd
