+Mrome+ – Noetic Collision on the Roof of Hell

February 20, 2018 Vinterd

 It’s hard to look for new metal in today’s world without the material in question being accompanied by some sort of categorization that’s all but incredibly specific. I’m very guilty of doing this as I, like many people, like to … Continue reading +Mrome+ – Noetic Collision on the Roof of Hell

Suum – Buried Into the Grave

February 18, 2018 Vinterd

Structural Repairs – We Choose Violence

February 17, 2018February 18, 2018 Vinterd

 One of the styles that undoubtedly helped me get into metal in the first place is ironically on that I don’t visit very often nowadays: metalcore.

Lowered – s/t

February 14, 2018February 15, 2018 Vinterd

 The realm of doom is a place that can vary from anything that’s little more than a hit of the ol’ bong to an incredibly dark, terrifying place that only the bravest or most foolish souls dare to venture. While … Continue reading Lowered – s/t

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

Inhibitions – La Danse Macabre

February 12, 2018 Vinterd

 Of all my time in the current ocean that is the modern underground scene of black metal, I rarely come across any symphonic acts. I’m not sure if it’s the lack of bands performing the style or I’m simply going … Continue reading Inhibitions – La Danse Macabre

February 11, 2018 Vinterd
