Nuclear Antichrist – s/t

May 16, 2018May 17, 2018 Vinterd

 A style that I’ve always been a fan of but never really spend that much time with is death/thrash metal. I’ve no idea why I don’t visit it often, but it’s something that I really need to change with there … Continue reading Nuclear Antichrist – s/t

Truchło Strzygi – Pora Umierać

May 15, 2018May 16, 2018 Vinterd

 Poland is far from a place that I would expect to find any variety of punk let alone black metal, but leave it to the world of metal to always keep me guessing where the next tasty piece is going … Continue reading Truchło Strzygi – Pora Umierać

Gruesome – Twisted Prayers

May 14, 2018May 15, 2018 Vinterd

 I feel it’s far too obvious to call Death one of the apex death metal bands of all time with their unending scope and undying influence on the scene to this day. I could sit here all fucking day and … Continue reading Gruesome – Twisted Prayers

Gravecoven – Coughing Blood

May 13, 2018May 14, 2018 Vinterd

 Creating a hybrid of metal is far from an easy task but it’s not exactly a mammoth one since there is a near-infinite amount of examples of hybrid metal that’s out there in the world nowadays. Yet, I still manage to … Continue reading Gravecoven – Coughing Blood

Eye of Solitude – Slaves to Solitude

May 12, 2018 Vinterd

 The world of doom is the exact kind of place I love being in where the riffs are aplenty and the heaviness is almost always out of this fucking world. Funeral doom especially goes to great lengths to bring the … Continue reading Eye of Solitude – Slaves to Solitude

Trees, Clouds & Silence – Let Me Die On Your Roots

May 11, 2018May 12, 2018 Vinterd

 The black metal scene of Bandcamp as a whole is truly thriving more than it ever has, and the style that easily takes the place as the most saturated style has to be atmospheric black metal. I’m not sure if … Continue reading Trees, Clouds & Silence – Let Me Die On Your Roots

Moloch Conspiracy /Araphel / Veiled Monk – Trinitas Sanctus

May 10, 2018 Vinterd

 One of the genres that I’ve been meaning to spend more time in than anything outside of metal is the world of ambiance. It’s such a rich, complex style from the likes of dungeon synth to dark ambient to noise … Continue reading Moloch Conspiracy /Araphel / Veiled Monk – Trinitas Sanctus

Sathanas – Necrohymns

May 9, 2018 Vinterd

 You would think that doing something consistently for thirty fucking years would get you a good deal of recognition in some form or another, right? A lot of the time, especially in music, the acts that go on for decades … Continue reading Sathanas – Necrohymns

In Obscurity Revealed – Spell of the Seeker

May 8, 2018 Vinterd

 Recreating the classic, old-school sound that death metal has become somewhat of a fixation among its inhabitants. I like to think its a form of flattery as many people are trying to recreate a sound that they love so much, … Continue reading In Obscurity Revealed – Spell of the Seeker

Sleepwalker – 一期一会

May 7, 2018May 8, 2018 Vinterd

Asia has long been a continent with an aspiring metal scene that sadly doesn’t get enough attention from the rest of the metalheads of the world. It has given us many great acts in recent years of all sorts of … Continue reading Sleepwalker – 一期一会
