April 7, 2019April 8, 2019 Vinterd

LTM – Shells

April 4, 2019April 5, 2019 Vinterd

Clouds Taste Satanic – Evil Eye

April 3, 2019 Vinterd

Ravenpath – The Raven’s Wisdom

April 2, 2019April 2, 2019 Vinterd

It feels as though in recent times that melodic death metal has started to make a turn to a much more… flamboyant sound that’s incredibly colorful and leaving the death metal primarily in the vocals. I’m no stranger to it … Continue reading Ravenpath – The Raven’s Wisdom

Inter Arma – Sulphur English

April 1, 2019 Vinterd

AntropomorphiA – Merciless Savagery

March 29, 2019March 30, 2019 Vinterd

A logical progression for a band going from album to album is the sort of thing that we all expect to see every now and then, and tonight was no different as when I sat down to hear what AntropomorphiA … Continue reading AntropomorphiA – Merciless Savagery

Allegaeon – Apoptosis

March 27, 2019December 31, 2020 Vinterd

I feel it’s safe to say that just about everyone who was listening to Allegaeon back when they released “Proponent for Sentience” felt that it was a monumental achievement that was a real landmark album for both the band itself … Continue reading Allegaeon – Apoptosis

Soliloquium – Contemplations

March 26, 2019 Vinterd

An album that can bring together some terrifically heavy styles such as doom and death metal while simultaneously allowing us to look inwards towards our emotions as well as having this incredible ethereal vibe permeating itself from start to finish … Continue reading Soliloquium – Contemplations
