Br00Tal Beefcake – Based On True Events

Phobophilic – Undimensioned Identities

September 3, 2019 Vinterd

Hermit’s Maze – State of Mind

August 30, 2019 Vinterd

It tends to be in the realm of anything post-related that instrumentalism finds its home as they fit so well together that it’s rare that we see a concoction of it that doesn’t work really well, but it does the … Continue reading Hermit’s Maze – State of Mind

Desert – Fortune Favors the Brave

August 29, 2019 Vinterd

It’s the occasional surprise that really keeps me coming back to styles that I don’t frequent often and power metal is definitely one of those styles that I can almost always eat right up given just how fun it is … Continue reading Desert – Fortune Favors the Brave

August 28, 2019 Vinterd

Doem – The Fly & The Nail

August 26, 2019 Vinterd
