April 30, 2018April 30, 2018 Vinterd

Without a doubt, the best album that has come out this year that I’ve had the pleasure of hearing is the latest record from the experimental black metal act from Australia, Arkheth’s “12 Winter Moons Comes the Witches Brew”. It … Continue reading Interview with up-and-coming black metal act Arkheth!

Duir – Obsidio

April 28, 2018 Vinterd

 The country of Italy has always been an odd one when it comes to metal as it’s been on the verge of becoming one of the next hotspots for quality metal across the globe. We’ve seen acts like Ade come … Continue reading Duir – Obsidio

Aeonian Sorrow – Into the Eternity A Moment We Are

April 27, 2018April 28, 2018 Vinterd

 Over the last year roughly I’ve been on a loose search for the best of what funeral doom has to offer nowadays. But the problem is… I don’t know where to fucking start. Sure, I’ve heard and fallen in love … Continue reading Aeonian Sorrow – Into the Eternity A Moment We Are

Abominablood – Abomination Continues

April 26, 2018 Vinterd

 Creating blackened death metal is far from something that can be considered a hard task as the style is so fucking saturated nowadays that you have an infinite amount of bands to draw influence from and thus create your own … Continue reading Abominablood – Abomination Continues

Panegyrist – Hierurgy

April 25, 2018April 26, 2018 Vinterd

 Simply the idea of bringing your own sound to the table in order to create something new that has never been heard before. It’s a goal that permeates much of music and has helped the world of music become as … Continue reading Panegyrist – Hierurgy

Skinless – Savagery

April 24, 2018 Vinterd

 Skinless is truly a band that shouldn’t need any sort of introduction as most everyone I’ve talked about them has heard them before. These guys have arguably allowed New York death metal acts to rise up and rival Florida for … Continue reading Skinless – Savagery

Ezkaton – Plague for the Empires: Time

April 21, 2018April 22, 2018 Vinterd

 It’s a key thing for music in general that people pour their hearts and souls into the music they’re pouring forth. Showing emotion is far from a rarity in metal, and black metal isn’t always the first thing people think of … Continue reading Ezkaton – Plague for the Empires: Time

Denim Casket – Demo

April 20, 2018April 21, 2018 Vinterd

 I’ve always been the kind of guy to go for a finished product that has had the proper treatment to it. Not sure why I am that way, but I firmly believe that everyone needs to step out of their … Continue reading Denim Casket – Demo

Third Island – Omelas

April 19, 2018April 20, 2018 Vinterd

 Whenever a band comes along and tags themselves as a “post” act, it always intrigues me because that typically means some atmosphere is gonna be involved, and that’s some shit I’m always ready for. Some bands are going to be better … Continue reading Third Island – Omelas

Abstracter – Cinereous Incarnate

April 18, 2018April 19, 2018 Vinterd

 There are simply some bands that refuse to stay quiet or even keep things the same for too long. I’ve come across countless bands that change their style over time as their debut album could be one style while later … Continue reading Abstracter – Cinereous Incarnate
