Hamleypa – Im Morgen von Einst

December 10, 2015December 11, 2015 Vinterd

Trivium – Silence In the Snow

December 6, 2015 Vinterd

 If you ask me I think that Trivium have been putting out “okay” albums since their amazing piece that was “Shogun” with their last album being not even worth mentioning in my book. So when I saw that they released … Continue reading Trivium – Silence In the Snow

Wolfmother – City Lights (single)

December 5, 2015 Vinterd

 I will be completely honest and say that I have never heard a single Wolfmother song before today, which is sacrilegious depending on who you ask, but I’m just a fucking weirdo like that. But there is a first for … Continue reading Wolfmother – City Lights (single)

Veldes – Descent

December 2, 2015December 3, 2015 Vinterd

 Imagine what the soundtrack for the Siberian tundra forest would be. The cold air with your breath clouding your fucking glasses for the millionth time. The rigid leaves rustling in the beyond brisk wind that is a strangely satisfying sound … Continue reading Veldes – Descent
