Interview with Canyon of the Skull

February 26, 2018August 10, 2018 Vinterd

A lot of times when I do this review shit, I do a lot of stumbling around when looking for new music. It was especially clear in my earlier days doing this, and one day I got an email from … Continue reading Interview with Canyon of the Skull

Coldawn – …In the Dawn

February 25, 2018 Vinterd

 With many of us being in the depths of winter, sometimes it’s music that can really bring out the best of the season. It’s hard to find a metal album that accurately represents a season in general, but black metal … Continue reading Coldawn – …In the Dawn

Ilsa – Corpse Fortress

February 24, 2018February 24, 2018 Vinterd

 If you search long and hard enough in the metal underground, you’ll come across some real filthy shit that doesn’t abash itself by censoring themes or lyrics. Instead, they thrive in it. Most of these bands tend not to get … Continue reading Ilsa – Corpse Fortress

Oryx – Stolen Absolution

February 22, 2018 Vinterd

 Doom and sludge metal have long been a pairing that’s much like black and death metal or even psychedelia and rock: unforgettable and too enjoyable to let die. Many bands have tried the combination ever since the first experimentation much … Continue reading Oryx – Stolen Absolution

Precaria / Deathspiral of Inherited Suffering / Dominus Ira – Metamorphosphoros

February 21, 2018February 22, 2018 Vinterd

 The appeal of a split is not lost on me in any capacity. It can bring together two great bands for a monumental listen the likes of which we only could’ve hoped to see live before that. Splits tend to … Continue reading Precaria / Deathspiral of Inherited Suffering / Dominus Ira – Metamorphosphoros

+Mrome+ – Noetic Collision on the Roof of Hell

February 20, 2018 Vinterd

 It’s hard to look for new metal in today’s world without the material in question being accompanied by some sort of categorization that’s all but incredibly specific. I’m very guilty of doing this as I, like many people, like to … Continue reading +Mrome+ – Noetic Collision on the Roof of Hell

Against Evil – All Hail the King

February 19, 2018February 20, 2018 Vinterd

 Since their debut a few years back, Against Evil has become one of those acts in the heavy metal community that many people have crowded around simply because what we’ve seen of them is so tantalizing and spectacular. What many … Continue reading Against Evil – All Hail the King

Suum – Buried Into the Grave

February 18, 2018 Vinterd

 Traditional doom is something very akin to old school death metal in that there will always be such a desire for it that many new bands will constantly come out of the woodwork to keep its spirit strong and alive … Continue reading Suum – Buried Into the Grave

Nydvind – Tetramental I – Seas of Oblivion

February 16, 2018 Vinterd

 The mysterious fathoms of the sea is such that can inspire everything from the greatest sense of wonder to the most intense sense of curiosity to the more profoundly deep fear. But for many, it invoked a sense of adventure … Continue reading Nydvind – Tetramental I – Seas of Oblivion
