Bog Wizard – Miasmic Purple Smoke

November 30, 2021November 19, 2021 Vinterd

If you ask me, it’s almost painful how often bands pick only a single lane to stay in when it comes to crafting a new album. There is nothing wrong with honing your craft in order to become all but … Continue reading Bog Wizard – Miasmic Purple Smoke

Antucuran – La Maldicion del Gobernador Manqueante

November 29, 2021November 19, 2021 Vinterd

If you ask me, any sort of attempt to even try to bring together the worlds of black and folk metal is virtually always worthy of investigation simply because of the prospect of a successful attempt which, when one does … Continue reading Antucuran – La Maldicion del Gobernador Manqueante

Weedpecker – IV: The Stream of Forgotten Thoughts

November 27, 2021November 19, 2021 Vinterd

  When it comes to peak acts of psychedelia that often don’t get enough attention for all that they’ve achieved and brought to the table, there certainly are a few that come to my mind after a few minutes. Weedpecker … Continue reading Weedpecker – IV: The Stream of Forgotten Thoughts

Itnuveth – Ananké

November 26, 2021November 13, 2021 Vinterd

I doubt I will ever tire of revisiting bands over the years as they continue to grow and refine their craft as I still explore the depths of what metal has to offer at my own pace, and it’s almost … Continue reading Itnuveth – Ananké

Phrenelith – Chimaera

November 25, 2021November 13, 2021 Vinterd

It’s every now and then that a band comes from seemingly nowhere out of the ever-present ether to deliver to us an album that not only captures the minds and ears of thousands all over but makes those lucky listeners … Continue reading Phrenelith – Chimaera

Ikarie – Cuerpos en Sombra

November 24, 2021November 6, 2021 Vinterd

Much like my ongoing streak of glory with the likes of death-doom metal, it’s finally the scantly populated yet extremely enticing realm of post-doom that we’re starting to see more of. I’ve always felt that style, in particular, has so … Continue reading Ikarie – Cuerpos en Sombra

Lunarite – Distance

November 23, 2021November 11, 2021 Vinterd

When we take into consideration just how well done instrumental metal can become in good hands, the potential for greatness becomes virtually limitless since it can take place in any style with nothing but a tremendous effort as the result. … Continue reading Lunarite – Distance

Kreationist – Dan L’Interminable

November 22, 2021November 19, 2021 Vinterd

Something I have always and will always love about the vast world of metal is simply how far it can be stretched to make for something that not only has the capacity to stand on its own or feel like … Continue reading Kreationist – Dan L’Interminable

Seedna – Wraith

November 20, 2021November 5, 2021 Vinterd

We truly do not have any sort of shortage when comes to quality bands coming out of the northern woods and mountains of Scandinavia with all their different variations on heaviness itself, but it’s the territories between the realms of … Continue reading Seedna – Wraith

Merlock – You Cannot Be Saved

November 19, 2021November 11, 2021 Vinterd

I’ve always said it’s immensely entertaining to come back around to a band years after that first discovery at the start of the band’s journey, especially when it’s after the band has had the time to not only put out … Continue reading Merlock – You Cannot Be Saved
