Crawl – Rituals

June 15, 2018June 12, 2018 Vinterd

 Sweden has long been a flagship country for all of death metal throughout the decades, that much is certain. Yet, the preservation of traditional Swedish death is something that not many are willing to take up, but some decide to … Continue reading Crawl – Rituals

Kissin’ Dynamite – Ecstasy

June 14, 2018June 12, 2018 Vinterd

 In today’s modern state of metal, innovation is all but rampant and it doesn’t take an eagle-eyed fan to see that. Metal is easily the genre with the most amount of varying styles and sounds to where it appears there’s … Continue reading Kissin’ Dynamite – Ecstasy

Fetid Zombie – Remnants of Life

June 13, 2018June 12, 2018 Vinterd

 If there should ever be a list of modern bands that are keeping death metal in the thriving condition that it’s in, Fetid Zombie should undoubtedly be hailed as a massive driving force. This act and the man behind it … Continue reading Fetid Zombie – Remnants of Life

The Re-Stoned – Stores of the Astral Lizard

June 12, 2018December 7, 2020 Vinterd

 There’s a seemingly infinite number of subgenres in the worlds of both metal and rock, and while it’s impossible to hear it all that doesn’t stop us from finding unique flavors from small niches across the two genres that come … Continue reading The Re-Stoned – Stores of the Astral Lizard

Aseethe / Snow Burial – split

June 11, 2018June 12, 2018 Vinterd

 A big plus that has always been for me when it comes to sludge metal is simply how fucking filthy it can be at times. Sometimes we get a calculated chaos from the likes of Lord Dying, unique experiences from … Continue reading Aseethe / Snow Burial – split

ASG – Survive Sunrise

June 10, 2018 Vinterd

 Coming across some hard rock recently has left me high and dry more than anything, sadly. The style has never really stood out without the help of riffs coming into play in order to carry an album forward. I felt … Continue reading ASG – Survive Sunrise

Kuilu – Monumentti

June 9, 2018June 10, 2018 Vinterd

 It’s not hard to figure out that some of my favorite music comes from the realm of black and doom metal separately. Yet, I’ve never been ignorant of the fusing of the two together even though it’s something that I … Continue reading Kuilu – Monumentti

Coldbound – The Gale

June 8, 2018June 9, 2018 Vinterd

 The wide world of melodic death metal is one that I used to be much more into. With the likes of Amon Amarth, Despite, King of Asgard, and Countless Skies peppering my playlists, I knew it was only a matter … Continue reading Coldbound – The Gale

Vomitile – Pure Eternal Hate

June 7, 2018 Vinterd

 Coming back to a band years after not really listening to them at all is one of my absolute favorite things to do as a metalhead because I get to see how bands continue on with their sound or do … Continue reading Vomitile – Pure Eternal Hate

Metal, Punk, ThrashLeave a comment

Vil Murra – Grandes Exitos

June 6, 2018 Vinterd

 There aren’t many cases of punk where I can really gravitate towards an album while agreeing with it completely and not feeling there’s more to be desired. More times than not, the punk molds with thrash to become a tasteful … Continue reading Vil Murra – Grandes Exitos
