Eternal Rot – Putridarium

July 7, 2020June 18, 2020 Vinterd

There are many albums to look forward to from many bands across the wide expanse of the vileness that is the metal underground, but few are have been as anticipated by plenty than a new effort from Eternal Rot. Their … Continue reading Eternal Rot – Putridarium

Ensiferum – Thalassic

July 6, 2020June 17, 2020 Vinterd

Of all the premier folk metal bands that we’ve gotten over the years, I can’t help but feel that Ensiferum has become one of the very best over the years with their efforts constantly showing off epic talent on many … Continue reading Ensiferum – Thalassic

LáGoon – Father of Death

July 5, 2020June 16, 2020 Vinterd

“Well that was fucking fast” is something that I usually reserve for when bands release material in quick succession like how Esoctrilihum continues to have some crazy full-length at least once a year for years now, but it’s extremely rare … Continue reading LáGoon – Father of Death

Vokodlok – Oracle’s Fury

July 4, 2020June 16, 2020 Vinterd

I’m a firm believer in when any band that’s been apart for well over a decade comes back together for a terrific album that it’s a time for celebration. Rarely is it a time where bad material is thrown around … Continue reading Vokodlok – Oracle’s Fury

Nighttrain – Hell Central

July 3, 2020June 16, 2020 Vinterd

There is an absolutely obscene number of bands out there that are just far too content with the idea of just copying classic acts of both rock and metal hoping the grab the ear of many different listeners with the … Continue reading Nighttrain – Hell Central

Bog Wizard – From the Mire

July 2, 2020June 15, 2020 Vinterd

Doom has covered many different themes in its thousands of incarnations, but one I’ve never really seen is Satanic panic which fits far too well with what modern doom usually brings to the table. It was only a matter of … Continue reading Bog Wizard – From the Mire

Godark – Forward We March

July 1, 2020June 15, 2020 Vinterd

It’s very interesting to witness a particular style gain a foothold in the already vast world of metal for it to slowly grow into something very interesting with many bands growing the sound into something very special. I couldn’t say … Continue reading Godark – Forward We March

God – God IV – Revelation

June 30, 2020June 14, 2020 Vinterd

For some time, God has been the name to know in my book when it comes to being a progressive and instrumental metal, and I feel it’s safe to say it’s one of the few acts that I’ve come across … Continue reading God – God IV – Revelation

Vampiric – Supernatural Tales

June 29, 2020June 14, 2020 Vinterd

There are many instances of tons of different bands constantly pumping out material at an alarming rate to where, like many things, it’s impossible to keep up with them all. By far, my favorite of these lands on the name … Continue reading Vampiric – Supernatural Tales

Doom, MetalLeave a comment

Poema Arcanvs – Stardust Solitude

June 28, 2020June 13, 2020 Vinterd

It should be no surprise to anyone who knows me that I prefer my doom on the heavier side, but by no means that does mean the lighter side of the style has nothing of value for me. On the … Continue reading Poema Arcanvs – Stardust Solitude
