August 19, 2022August 13, 2022 Vinterd

August 17, 2022August 12, 2022 Vinterd

Ash of Ashes – Traces

August 16, 2022August 6, 2022 Vinterd

Of all the styles that are out there in the world of metal for us to lose ourselves in, folk metal has to be one of those that will endlessly fascinate me. It’s a style that feels like there’s no … Continue reading Ash of Ashes – Traces

Tomarum – Ash in Realms of Stone Icons

August 15, 2022August 6, 2022 Vinterd

When we look at the very state of what progressive black metal brings to the table in its current climate, it’s both fascinating and underwhelming.

Echelon – Open Wide the Adamantine Gates

August 14, 2022August 12, 2022 Vinterd

Angrrsth / Czort – W Czelusc

August 13, 2022August 11, 2022 Vinterd

The very prospect of a worthwhile split is always something that is demanding of attention, much like any exciting body of work. It’s already a sight to see one band put together a fascinating performance, but to see two or … Continue reading Angrrsth / Czort – W Czelusc

Trial – Feed the Fire

August 12, 2022August 5, 2022 Vinterd

Eufobia – Madness

August 11, 2022August 5, 2022 Vinterd

Oftentimes, whenever we’re dealing with the grandeur of death metal we find ourselves taking our expectations to the very extreme. That’s far from unreasonable given the very nature of an already extreme sound even in its more subtle moments, but … Continue reading Eufobia – Madness

Critical Defiance – No Life Forms

August 10, 2022August 5, 2022 Vinterd

As one of the sounds that have remained virtually unchanged in its original spirit and execution despite the test of time and all the new blood that it has accrued in that time, thrash metal still stands as one of … Continue reading Critical Defiance – No Life Forms
