Gestrüpp – Below the Trees

February 2, 2021January 17, 2021 Vinterd

A more than worthwhile work out of black metal is always something that’s massively intriguing by all accounts is something that absolutely has to be talked about since the scene can often feel oversaturated, but, like many other styles, should … Continue reading Gestrüpp – Below the Trees

Burial Clouds – Last Days of a Dying World

February 1, 2021January 21, 2021 Vinterd

The simple act of standing in an empty field and watching the sky darken as dusk slowly folds over into night isn’t much to go off of when from an emotional front, or so it would seem at the surface. … Continue reading Burial Clouds – Last Days of a Dying World

Malgöth – Primordial Dawn

January 31, 2021January 17, 2021 Vinterd

Much like the endless void of screams and death, the number of black/death metal bands is seemingly endless. It’s a fusion that virtually all of us are aware of in some form or another, and there are few ways to … Continue reading Malgöth – Primordial Dawn

Cult of Luna – The Raging River

January 30, 2021January 21, 2021 Vinterd

It’s a unique pleasure to see a worthy band make the transition into something far more than another band of whatever renown from whatever big or small label would take under any normal circumstances. The revered name of Cult of … Continue reading Cult of Luna – The Raging River

Ildskær – Paa Dækket Kalder de Døde

January 29, 2021January 16, 2021 Vinterd

If you ask me, there isn’t enough history in metal nowadays. Sure, we’ve seen a small surge of sorts from the many different styles from bands like 1914 and Minenwerfer (just to name two) coming out of the woodwork to … Continue reading Ildskær – Paa Dækket Kalder de Døde

Gatecreeper – An Unexpected Reality

January 28, 2021January 16, 2021 Vinterd

I think it’s safe to say that Gatecreeper has cemented themselves at the forefront of modern death metal by all accounts. Only being around for eight years, the name has become synonymous with next level, hard-hitting death metal that fucking … Continue reading Gatecreeper – An Unexpected Reality

Negative or Nothing – Drowned

January 27, 2021January 16, 2021 Vinterd

It’s simultaneously easy and incredibly difficult to fall into the wide realm of atmospheric black metal with how voluminous the scene is at any given time no matter what. Easy because of the raw abundance, difficult because it can often … Continue reading Negative or Nothing – Drowned

Marasmus – Necrotic Overlord

January 26, 2021December 24, 2020 Vinterd

It’s from the seething, flesh-coated floor of the underground that death metal is always at home no matter how good it is or how welcoming it can seem from one band to the next, and there are rarely works that … Continue reading Marasmus – Necrotic Overlord

Soothsayer – Echoes of the Earth

January 25, 2021January 9, 2021 Vinterd

With the amount of time that many musicians had to prepare new material in the past year given the recent events, it’s truly hard for me to think of a list of any sorts when it comes to bands that … Continue reading Soothsayer – Echoes of the Earth

Stonus – Seance

January 24, 2021January 26, 2021 Vinterd

 When it comes to rising acts from the world of rock, especially heavy rock in all of its forms, there is truly no shortage of names to pull out of a hat. Any name has the potential for greatness with … Continue reading Stonus – Seance
