Thou Shalt See – Demo

May 19, 2021May 7, 2021 Vinterd

Ever since my discovery of Canyon of the Skull, I’ve always had the drive to find the next instance of glorious instrumental doom. Clouds Taste Satanic has been one of my favorite finds since having that drive, but it has … Continue reading Thou Shalt See – Demo

The Furor – Obliteration Matrix

May 18, 2021May 7, 2021 Vinterd

When we take into consideration even the concept of blasphemy across the vast realms of extreme metal, you can’t go far without running into it in full force. It’s what has made many albums within black and death metal the … Continue reading The Furor – Obliteration Matrix

Dunerider – Ruins

May 17, 2021May 6, 2021 Vinterd

When we travel into the desert for music, it’s into the world of rock that we tend to find ourselves travelling into more likely than not. That particular world of psychedelia is one of my favorite areas to explore in … Continue reading Dunerider – Ruins

Krilloan – Stories of Time Forgotten

May 16, 2021May 6, 2021 Vinterd

It’s all too often that we find ourselves swarmed by bombastic material with tons of energy and life to it that has the capacity that can feel downright invigorating, but it’s all too often that it feels lifeless. What’s the … Continue reading Krilloan – Stories of Time Forgotten

Necrogod – In Extremis

May 14, 2021May 1, 2021 Vinterd

Before today, it would be hard for me to sit here and try to wonder what exactly the heaviest work from the master of Swedish death metal that is Rogga Johansson. The likes of Paganizer, Ribspreader, and Revolting all come … Continue reading Necrogod – In Extremis

Vulture – Dealin’ Death

May 13, 2021April 29, 2021 Vinterd

The current climate of thrash metal is certainly an interesting debacle. Much like heavy metal, it’s one of those styles that revels in its classic performances such that the sound as a whole has remained virtually unchanged for decades. In … Continue reading Vulture – Dealin’ Death

Human Failure – Crown On The Head Of A King Of Mud

May 12, 2021April 25, 2021 Vinterd

The fusion of death metal and noise has always been an interesting one, to say the least. It’s quite a concoction to mix together such infamous styles that are known to be harsh in even their most refined forms, but … Continue reading Human Failure – Crown On The Head Of A King Of Mud

Yautja – The Lurch

May 11, 2021May 10, 2021 Vinterd

Disoritentation is often a trait that is viewed under two completely different points of view where it can elevate a recording into a cerebral experience that is downright bewildering or it quickly makes the material in question an absolute mess … Continue reading Yautja – The Lurch

LáGoon – Skullactic Visions

May 9, 2021April 23, 2021 Vinterd

Of the many rising stars that are taking the psych-rock world head-on, LáGoon is definitely a name that more people need to know. With their raw sound that hearkens back to classic models as well as carving out their own … Continue reading LáGoon – Skullactic Visions

Doom, MetalLeave a comment

Bretus – Magharia

May 8, 2021April 24, 2021 Vinterd

There’s nothing quite like some doom that doesn’t exactly fit in the mold of doom that’s catering to the classic sound of the style or overly heavy to appeal to people looking to be crushed by riffs at every turn. … Continue reading Bretus – Magharia
