Cold Snap – These Boots are Made for Walkin’ (single)

March 26, 2016 Vinterd

 When I think of the classic legends of music that made it what the industry came to be today, I think of none other than Frank Sinatra and how influential he was, but many people forget about his daughter, Nancy … Continue reading Cold Snap – These Boots are Made for Walkin’ (single)

Mesarthim – Pillars

March 25, 2016March 25, 2016 Vinterd

 I remember hearing a whole bunch of hype about Mesarthim’s last album, “Isolate”, from some of my friends who frequently checked Bandcamp for all those “dank beats”. And I checked out “Isolate” and was sadly unimpressed despite all the appraisal … Continue reading Mesarthim – Pillars

Desaster – The Oath of an Iron Ritual

March 24, 2016March 24, 2016 Vinterd

 The world of black and thrash metal have met infinite amount of times through since they were both conceived, and no one has ever question the raw power contained within such a combination. But with many bands doing the same … Continue reading Desaster – The Oath of an Iron Ritual

Sourvein – Aquatic Occult

March 23, 2016November 16, 2016 Vinterd

 If you ask me, the quality of sludge metal bar a few exceptions has gone down in recent years. Not as many bands want to get as dirty as they used to and try to over refine their sound to … Continue reading Sourvein – Aquatic Occult

Exalter – Obituary for the Living

March 22, 2016 Vinterd

 You know Slayer, I know Slayer, we all know Slayer. They’ve been doing virtually the same thing over the course of their legendary career, but frankly for some of us that sound got a little old as it did for … Continue reading Exalter – Obituary for the Living

a noend of mine – The Serenity’s Eve

March 21, 2016 Vinterd

 Kauan is probably the most interesting and unique band I’ve ever come across in my time as a metal head especially with their last album, “Sorni Nai”, being one of my favorite records of last year. So when I saw … Continue reading a noend of mine – The Serenity’s Eve

WOM – From Abyss, Thy Wrath

March 20, 2016 Vinterd

 Black metal can be so much, but it can also be so little. And by that last part I mean it can be extremely underwhelming when a band just doesn’t seem to even try to make a good album and … Continue reading WOM – From Abyss, Thy Wrath

Moonsorrow – Non Serviam (single)

March 19, 2016 Vinterd

 I’ve always, always been a fan of pagan metal because of how unique and interesting it always is to me, but the one band that I’ve never actually took time to listen to is Moonsorrow. These guys have been a … Continue reading Moonsorrow – Non Serviam (single)

North – Light the Way

March 18, 2016November 16, 2016 Vinterd

 I remember hearing the first single off of this album and having my mind absolutely blown at the unique style of what North had created. Now that the full album is out, we can all take in what “Light the … Continue reading North – Light the Way

Mork – Den Vandrende Skygge

March 16, 2016 Vinterd

 There has been a severe lack of “true kvlt” black metal in my life according to some people so I decided t set out and find something that fit that description that I enjoyed. Needless to say there were plenty … Continue reading Mork – Den Vandrende Skygge
