Nexion – Seven Oracles

May 28, 2020May 18, 2020 Vinterd

There have been many times where I crave some off the chain black metal that holds nothing back in terms of pure craziness. An assault on your ears is something that you rarely know you need until it comes upon … Continue reading Nexion – Seven Oracles

Grave Digger – Fields of Blood

May 27, 2020May 17, 2020 Vinterd

Creature – Ex Cathedra

May 26, 2020May 12, 2020 Vinterd

Atræ Bilis – Divinihility

May 25, 2020December 31, 2020 Vinterd

A band that tries something new is always something that will have my attention almost immediately every single time. It’s something that I’m constantly on the lookout for, and whenever it happens I rarely let it slip by because of … Continue reading Atræ Bilis – Divinihility

Evilfeast / Uuntar – Odes to Lands of Past Traditions

May 24, 2020May 12, 2020 Vinterd

The modern state of black metal is still in a stage that I can’t help but feel is still in the best condition that it has been for such a long time with the sound being far more available than … Continue reading Evilfeast / Uuntar – Odes to Lands of Past Traditions

Neptunian Maximalism – Éons

May 23, 2020May 12, 2020 Vinterd

Aborted Earth – Man-Made Mechanical Misery

May 22, 2020May 11, 2020 Vinterd

Fleshvessel – Bile of Man Reborn

May 21, 2020May 11, 2020 Vinterd

Experimentation is something that I’ve been extremely fond of for years now for one simple reason no matter if it’s good or bad: it always keeps you on your toes. Whether it’s just blending together styles to create a fresh sound … Continue reading Fleshvessel – Bile of Man Reborn

Hellhookah – The Curse

May 20, 2020May 10, 2020 Vinterd
