Greylotus – Dawnfall

September 8, 2022August 28, 2022 Vinterd

We could sit here for days and talk about the current state that the landscape of technical death metal finds itself in. It’s a glorious circumstance that is viciously compelling to lay one’s eyes upon for all the talent and … Continue reading Greylotus – Dawnfall

Sun Voyager – s/t

September 7, 2022September 6, 2022 Vinterd

In every possible way, the garage has always been one of the most underrated and underappreciated venues despite being one of the most important and pivotal settings for anything related to rock and metal. It’s where legions of bands have … Continue reading Sun Voyager – s/t

Hussar – All-Consuming Hunger

September 6, 2022August 27, 2022 Vinterd

Deer Creek – Menticide

September 5, 2022September 3, 2022 Vinterd

There’s nothing quite like being able to lose yourself in an album of crunchiness, heaviness, and excellence the likes of which simply can’t be swept aside for any reason because of its own power, talent, and tenacity. Modern doom has … Continue reading Deer Creek – Menticide

Entrails – An Eternal Time of Decay

September 4, 2022August 27, 2022 Vinterd

Endonomos – s/t

September 3, 2022August 28, 2022 Vinterd

It can often feel as though the very humble levels of the doom underground can lead to only one of two paths: (1) mind-blowing talent that’s destined for a meteoric rise, or (2) creations that never climbed the ladder of … Continue reading Endonomos – s/t

Acausal Intrusion – Seeping Evocation

September 2, 2022August 25, 2022 Vinterd

At even the more accessible regions of extreme metal, it takes a certain level of madness to really lose yourself in its power without letting it overtake you. Yet, those that aren’t afraid to wholly surrender to the chaos have … Continue reading Acausal Intrusion – Seeping Evocation

Epoch of Chirality – Nucleosynthesis

September 1, 2022August 20, 2022 Vinterd

The very boundaries of progressive metal are not to be quantified by the simple limitations of the human mind, for its territory is truly ever-expanding. Every month brings us at least one new effort that pushes those boundaries somewhere further … Continue reading Epoch of Chirality – Nucleosynthesis

Elk Witch – Beyond the Mountain

August 31, 2022August 20, 2022 Vinterd

The very classic sound of metal itself finds itself in a special place as being something that simply cannot die. The reverence that is held for that very sound is something that continues to influence legions of acts new and … Continue reading Elk Witch – Beyond the Mountain

Voak – Verdrangung

August 30, 2022August 20, 2022 Vinterd

Whereas just the other day I found myself steeped in the wild craziness of the furthest fringes of black metal with the likes of Arkheth, it’s now that we pull back into something much easier for us to wrap our … Continue reading Voak – Verdrangung
