De Profundis – The Blinding Light of Faith

March 10, 2018 Vinterd

 Ever since extreme metal has been a thing, there has always been a sense of anti-religion or even just a simply distaste for anything having to do with modern religion. It’s been a terrific topic to convey plenty of brutality, … Continue reading De Profundis – The Blinding Light of Faith

Strike Avenue – Human Golgotha

March 7, 2018March 8, 2018 Vinterd

 Despite having no sort of distaste or special disinterest towards deathcore, I rarely seek it out whenever I do these reviews. I’ve found tons of joy out of bands like We Rise the Tides and Carnifex, but it’s just a weird … Continue reading Strike Avenue – Human Golgotha

Shrine of the Serpent – Entropic Disillusion

March 6, 2018 Vinterd

 Just about every metalhead who scours the underground has come across one budding group or another and stuck to that group through years, watching them as they grow. I’ve been lucky enough to witness some promising acts rise from another … Continue reading Shrine of the Serpent – Entropic Disillusion

Rivers of Nihil – Where Owls Know My Name

March 4, 2018January 1, 2021 Vinterd

 A constant theme that I’ve noticed when it comes to newer bands versus older bands is that many people prefer older groups. That’s understandable since those bands have been around longer, know what they’re doing (usually) and have had plenty … Continue reading Rivers of Nihil – Where Owls Know My Name

Depravity – Evil Upheaval

March 2, 2018March 3, 2018 Vinterd

 Whenever I hear of new metal from anywhere I almost always have an instinctive impulse to check and see where the band is from. If I see the band in question is from Australia, I get excited because that country … Continue reading Depravity – Evil Upheaval

Ilsa – Corpse Fortress

February 24, 2018February 24, 2018 Vinterd

 If you search long and hard enough in the metal underground, you’ll come across some real filthy shit that doesn’t abash itself by censoring themes or lyrics. Instead, they thrive in it. Most of these bands tend not to get … Continue reading Ilsa – Corpse Fortress

The Crown – Cobra Speed Venom

February 23, 2018 Vinterd

 A band that has been around for decades are the kind that many people cling to given how those bands understandably almost always have a taste of classic material within their sound given that’s when they started things off as a … Continue reading The Crown – Cobra Speed Venom

Precaria / Deathspiral of Inherited Suffering / Dominus Ira – Metamorphosphoros

February 21, 2018February 22, 2018 Vinterd

 The appeal of a split is not lost on me in any capacity. It can bring together two great bands for a monumental listen the likes of which we only could’ve hoped to see live before that. Splits tend to … Continue reading Precaria / Deathspiral of Inherited Suffering / Dominus Ira – Metamorphosphoros

Iron Reagan / Gatecreeper – split

February 15, 2018 Vinterd

As someone who does these reviews on a daily basis, I’m no stranger when it comes to bands that have caused a bit of an uproar. Two of the more bombastic bands that have captured peoples’ attention are Iron Reagan’s … Continue reading Iron Reagan / Gatecreeper – split

Golgothan Remains – Perverse Offerings to the Void

February 13, 2018February 13, 2018 Vinterd

 The wide pit of rotting corpses that makes up all of modern death metal is by no means a shallow one as we all know the style has more acts that everyone can keep track of. Given that, there are … Continue reading Golgothan Remains – Perverse Offerings to the Void
