Hex – God Has No Name

May 5, 2019May 6, 2019 Vinterd

It’s not uncommon by any means to see a band bring together the worlds of death and doom metal to create for us yet more examples of overwhelming heaviness that manages to come across as devilishly delicious and such. And … Continue reading Hex – God Has No Name

Epectase – Astres

May 4, 2019May 5, 2019 Vinterd

Abnormality – Sociopathic Constructs

May 3, 2019December 31, 2020 Vinterd

A lot fo the technical takes on death metal that we see in the current climate of the style tend to allow the instruments to do the talking a good chunk of the time while the vocals still play a … Continue reading Abnormality – Sociopathic Constructs

Lotek Cruiser – s/t

May 2, 2019 Vinterd

The world of doom metal to me is very much like the world of black metal in that the sheer diversity in sound is truly something to behold and get lost in. Classic acts like Crowbar and new phenomenons like … Continue reading Lotek Cruiser – s/t

At Home In Hell – Self Identified Deity

April 30, 2019May 1, 2019 Vinterd

There have been many times that I’ve investigated into the underground realms that death metal tends to inhabit, and it feels sometimes that there are many acts that make the style feel just as sprawling as well as stale at … Continue reading At Home In Hell – Self Identified Deity

Carneia – Voices of the Void

April 29, 2019April 30, 2019 Vinterd

It’s been over the last few years that while I explore the modern sounds of metal piece by piece, it’s also in such fashion that I sift through the household names for the genre little by little. Tool was a … Continue reading Carneia – Voices of the Void

Ringworm – Death Becomes My Voice

April 28, 2019April 29, 2019 Vinterd

Hardcore has long been a sound that’s intrigued me, but the vast majority of the time it only really catches my eye when it’s mixed with metal as it’s that extra edge that really gets me going when it’s done … Continue reading Ringworm – Death Becomes My Voice

Swan Messiah – Call of the Burning One

April 27, 2019April 28, 2019 Vinterd

There have been many times that I’ve sat down to listen to a record and expected to hear a certain sound either because I was told so or merely gut feeling. When I delved into the latest album of Swan … Continue reading Swan Messiah – Call of the Burning One
