April 5, 2021April 5, 2021 Vinterd

Truly, there is no band like Cannibal Corpse. Oh, sure, it’s not a death metal band that may have pushed the boundaries of what the style is capable of nor are they the most innovative band that death metal has … Continue reading Cannibal Corpse – Violence Unimagined

Gateway – Flesh Reborn

Earthshine – My Bones Shall Rest Upon The Mountain

March 31, 2021March 15, 2021 Vinterd

Woe Unto Me – Spiral-Shaped Hopewreck

March 29, 2021March 15, 2021 Vinterd

It can often feel like the world of death/doom for all of its potential excellence and glory to be had within its deeply emotional themes can sound oddly monotone in the wrong hands. It takes true craftsmen to really weave … Continue reading Woe Unto Me – Spiral-Shaped Hopewreck
