Votov – I.X.X.I.

October 15, 2020September 29, 2020 Vinterd

I’m very much a guy that can appreciate virtually all forms of death metal just about no matter the form that it comes in, but I feel it’s more than safe to say that the style tends to come in … Continue reading Votov – I.X.X.I.

Dødsferd – Death Shall Purify the Wounds of Your Fragile Mortality

October 10, 2020September 23, 2020 Vinterd

Twenty years is, by all accounts, a long time for any band to keep going, especially if people can always rely on a constant stream of quality and self-improvement if they stick with that act. Next year will herald that … Continue reading Dødsferd – Death Shall Purify the Wounds of Your Fragile Mortality

Chasmdweller – Bacterial Lotus

October 9, 2020September 16, 2020 Vinterd

It’s barely been two months since I was just here talking about Chasmdweller, and I was just as puzzled then as I am now to find myself already talking about them again. Granted, their last offering was just a 2-track … Continue reading Chasmdweller – Bacterial Lotus

The Garin – s/t

October 6, 2020September 15, 2020 Vinterd

It’s possibly on the very fringes of the ever-changing style that is experimental rock that I find myself becoming the most intrigued by what modern rock has to offer simply due to the given fact that it’s rare to find … Continue reading The Garin – s/t
