Phobophilic – Undimensioned Identities

September 3, 2019 Vinterd

I’ve always found solace in the saying “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. It applies to everything and metal is often subject to it as there are many, many times where some bands will try to innovate upon a … Continue reading Phobophilic – Undimensioned Identities

Paganizer – The Tower of the Morbid

September 1, 2019September 6, 2019 Vinterd

There are just some acts out there that seem to not be able to do any wrong whatsoever. A mishap after however many albums can be understandable, especially if you’ve been going strong for years and year with loads of … Continue reading Paganizer – The Tower of the Morbid

Weeping Sores – False Confession

August 22, 2019August 12, 2019 Vinterd

It’s in recent experiences that I’ve noticed something within the combined realm of death/doom metal: it really feels like many bands, if not most, tend to neglect one of those two styles when performing their brand of death/doom. Now, obviously, … Continue reading Weeping Sores – False Confession

Chaos Motion – Psychological Spasms Cacophony

August 18, 2019December 31, 2020 Vinterd

More often than not, when we get a new technical death album we’re treated to a display of one of two things: an aural explosion of chaotic beauty or a full-on force that’s made to shred anything in its path. … Continue reading Chaos Motion – Psychological Spasms Cacophony

Devourment – Obscene Majesty

August 10, 2019August 11, 2019 Vinterd

There are some styles of metal that I just don’t find myself enjoying as much as I’d like no matter how much I try to expand my tastes as much as I can while being honest. One such style is … Continue reading Devourment – Obscene Majesty

Anifernyen – Augur

August 6, 2019August 7, 2019 Vinterd

I love delving into the side of metal where quite literally anything goes as we get bands all over the place that can just as easily do away with any sort of sensible structure in their material to bring forth … Continue reading Anifernyen – Augur

Esogenesi – s/t

August 4, 2019August 5, 2019 Vinterd

It’s when I sit down to find something to listen that I need to figure out just what exactly I’m in the mood for. Maybe it’s some straight death metal like Paganzier, some rock band from anyone in the world … Continue reading Esogenesi – s/t

Oxygen Destroyer / VHS – Category III Kaiju

August 1, 2019 Vinterd

There are very few things that can make me feel like a kid again than a good classic move. I vividly remember constantly sitting really close in front of a television that’s older than I am, close enough to where … Continue reading Oxygen Destroyer / VHS – Category III Kaiju

Gravefields – Embrace the Void

July 24, 2019July 25, 2019 Vinterd

It’s every now and then that we get an album that really takes the given genre and the band in question seeks to make an experience out of it. Something that’s immensely grandiose and richly detailed as it’s the sort … Continue reading Gravefields – Embrace the Void

Haunter – Sacramental Death Qualia

July 22, 2019 Vinterd

There are some bands that just refuse to stay confined within reasonable boundaries of genrefication where normal people can pin down their sound and then approach it with some form of confidence in having an idea of what they’re about … Continue reading Haunter – Sacramental Death Qualia
