Below – Upon a Pale Horse

May 12, 2017May 13, 2017 Vinterd

 It’s been a while since I’ve really searched doom metal as a genre for a band that sounds so classic yet fresh enough to where the listener doesn’t get bored. That’s quite a specific formula, but it’s the kind worth … Continue reading Below – Upon a Pale Horse

Chaos – All Against All

May 11, 2017May 12, 2017 Vinterd

 Recently, I’ve come to the revelation that somehow I don’t have all that many reviews for thrash pieces in all. So, lately, I’ve been trying to expand my thrash horizons and today that search as somehow led me back to … Continue reading Chaos – All Against All

Les Chants du Hasard – s/t

May 10, 2017 Vinterd

 Any single person who has taken the time to explore black metal knows that it’s an ever-growing tree of innovation, creativity, and imagination of all sorts. But what happens when a man seeks to transcend the genre itself? What happens … Continue reading Les Chants du Hasard – s/t

Aposento – Bleed to Death

May 9, 2017May 10, 2017 Vinterd

 Spain has recently become one of those countries for me that I’ve wanted to investigate more for its metal scene. Luckily, the renowned record label of Xtreem Music is based out of Madrid and often signs bands that also hail … Continue reading Aposento – Bleed to Death

Condor – Unstoppable Power

May 8, 2017May 9, 2017 Vinterd

 There are few bands out there that can emulate classic thrash metal anymore, and that’s what a lot of people refer to as the golden age for the style. That’s when things were really bloody, gritty, and really went into … Continue reading Condor – Unstoppable Power

Heathen Beast – $cam

May 7, 2017May 8, 2017 Vinterd

 Every band has a message – a mission if you will. Yes, the mission varies from band to band much as one squad may have a different objective than another, but it’s the ones that speak out are the ones … Continue reading Heathen Beast – $cam

Dante’s Theory – Amut

May 6, 2017May 7, 2017 Vinterd

 Singapore has become quite the scene to hear in recent years with glorious bands such as Rudra coming out of nowhere for people like me who’ve never thought to look in such a place before. Hence why I now think … Continue reading Dante’s Theory – Amut

DragonForce – Reaching into Infinity

May 5, 2017May 6, 2017 Vinterd

 For every style of metal, there is a special group of bands hat represents them perfectly. Thrash has the titans of Slayer and Anthrax to carry on their name, and death metal has got Cannibal Corpse and Amon Amarth. Power … Continue reading DragonForce – Reaching into Infinity

Former Worlds – Photos of Eve IX-XVI

May 4, 2017May 5, 2017 Vinterd

 I feel it’s safe to say that the vast majority of metalheads are into fantasy-themed versions of media from Lord of the Rings to Star Wars. Simply because, like metal, it’s larger than life and really captures the imagination so easily … Continue reading Former Worlds – Photos of Eve IX-XVI

All My Sins – Lunar/Solar

May 3, 2017May 4, 2017 Vinterd

 The ever-growing realm of black metal is filled with bands that had decided that enough is enough and somewhere down the line split up for one reason or another. A damned shame, really, as there’s always unknown potential in every … Continue reading All My Sins – Lunar/Solar
