Sleep Signals – Transitions

February 16, 2016 Vinterd

 It is my firm belief that every music lover loves something catchy. Whether it be catchy pop, rock, or metal is another story, but catchy is very captivating for obvious reasons, and there are always bands trying to have the … Continue reading Sleep Signals – Transitions

Strangulate – Catacombs of Decay

February 15, 2016 Vinterd

 I think it’s safe to say that death metal fans revere the old school style so much more than the new school style, which is all fine and dandy. I myself cannot really decide which of the two I like … Continue reading Strangulate – Catacombs of Decay

Manhack – Rustatorium

February 14, 2016February 15, 2016 Vinterd

 Manhack’s debut album, “Dominicide”, was without a doubt one of my favorite albums of the whole year when it came out. It was heavy, unrelentingly brutal, and had a dash of technical death in its style to shake things up … Continue reading Manhack – Rustatorium

For I Am King – We All Have Demons (single)

February 13, 2016 Vinterd

 I’ve always enjoyed metal bands that have a woman as a singer because they can just to do so many different things with their voice. Giving the music a smoother flow, a good melody, and a lighter sound are but … Continue reading For I Am King – We All Have Demons (single)

Stabbed – Submerge

February 11, 2016November 16, 2016 Vinterd

 The idea of post metal is really a huge thought for me because I always imagine bands using so much technology and shit to create these other worldly sensations. Bands like Minsk truly transport you to those lonely corners of … Continue reading Stabbed – Submerge

Plutonium – Born Again Misanthrope

February 10, 2016 Vinterd

 Of all the sub-genres there are of metal, there are definitely those I haven’t heard but there are of course ones that I’ve listened to before but aren’t familiar with. Industrial metal is the biggest example of that statement for … Continue reading Plutonium – Born Again Misanthrope

Legions of Raum – Fruition

February 9, 2016 Vinterd

 As a death metal and doing this shit that you are witnessing now, I’ve come across more than my fair share of death metal of all types. Plain, old school, new school, good, bad, infused with thrash, blackened, combined with … Continue reading Legions of Raum – Fruition

Greenleaf – Rise Above the Meadow

February 8, 2016 Vinterd

 All I really require to have a fun time is really situational, but today all I need were my headphones and some chill music with a subtle edge to it. And what better genre than stoner rock? I feel like … Continue reading Greenleaf – Rise Above the Meadow

Mammoth Mammoth – Mammoth Bloody Mammoth

February 7, 2016 Vinterd

 Sometimes all a band needs to really grab someone’s attention is a small EP of a few tracks that are absolutely mammoth in stature. Short, catchy tracks can go a long way as they can get you going in a … Continue reading Mammoth Mammoth – Mammoth Bloody Mammoth

North – Earthmind (single)

February 6, 2016November 16, 2016 Vinterd

 I’ve always been a fan of genres that employ some sort of atmosphere because they just bring so much more character and texture to the music that even without the atmosphere is still fucking excellent. The two most common genres … Continue reading North – Earthmind (single)
