Cavernlight – As I Cast Ruin Upon The Lens That Reveals My Every Flaw

May 16, 2022May 10, 2022 Vinterd

The very depths of the human soul are rarely the sort of territory that many of us want to experience in a raw, uncompromising form.

Esoctrilihum – Consecration of the Spiritüs Flesh

May 14, 2022May 11, 2022 Vinterd

After five years, six full-length albums, and two EPs, I don’t think my adoration with the French entity of Esoctrilihum is that much of a secret. The name has been a true constant in my listening and reviewing habits since … Continue reading Esoctrilihum – Consecration of the Spiritüs Flesh

May 13, 2022May 9, 2022 Vinterd

Dream Vision – Rêves

May 11, 2022May 4, 2022 Vinterd

De Arma – Nightcall

May 10, 2022May 4, 2022 Vinterd

When you’re taking mood and thematics into consideration for any body of work no matter how small it might be, there’s not much that can compare to a piece of gothic rock done right down to the very tone of … Continue reading De Arma – Nightcall

Jagannatha – Trimurti

May 9, 2022May 4, 2022 Vinterd

Instrumental, drawn-out, and unbelievably heavy doom metal with a good dosage of sludge is the sort of metal that I live for nowadays. There’s nothing quite like falling back into a piece of ultimate heaviness and coming out on the … Continue reading Jagannatha – Trimurti
