Neptunian Maximalism – Le Sacre Du Soleil Invaincu

March 29, 2025March 22, 2025 Vinterd

Sooner or later, artistic expression leads to something unique. We could search for years and never come across something that really goes against the grain to do its own thing and have that thing be such an artistic accomplishment that we have … Continue reading Neptunian Maximalism – Le Sacre Du Soleil Invaincu

Sol – Promethean Sessions

October 23, 2023October 12, 2023 Vinterd

It has been far too long since a piece has come before that has really taken the boundaries of metal and tossed them to the side to create an experience that is as dynamic as it is deep for all … Continue reading Sol – Promethean Sessions

Neraterræ / Chaigidel – Lamaštu

April 18, 2023April 10, 2023 Vinterd

While there was a time where the world of ambient called my name, I have to admit that it has been some time since I’ve laid down in those dark mists for no reason other than there really hasn’t been … Continue reading Neraterræ / Chaigidel – Lamaštu

Dødsferd – Asphyxiating Late Night Sessions: Collaboration with Sarvok

April 1, 2023March 29, 2023 Vinterd

For the last little while now, I’ve been steeped in the very greatness of the Greek underground and all of the material that it has to offer with its level of intensity still nigh on magnificent to lose yourself in. … Continue reading Dødsferd – Asphyxiating Late Night Sessions: Collaboration with Sarvok

At the Altar of the Horned God – Heart of Silence

February 13, 2023January 29, 2023 Vinterd

It doesn’t take any expert of metal music to know that atmospheric black metal has a firm grip upon a vast territory of all that black metal encompasses, and it’s not likely to go anywhere any time soon. The deeper … Continue reading At the Altar of the Horned God – Heart of Silence

Phalanx Inferno / Melek-Tha – Order of Eternal Indifference

December 20, 2021October 11, 2025 Vinterd

I think it’s safe to say that whenever we see a new split come around it comes in the form of two, sometimes more, bands of similar sound that decided to put together material for a singular release for one … Continue reading Phalanx Inferno / Melek-Tha – Order of Eternal Indifference

Drown – Утоплення

May 27, 2021May 15, 2021 Vinterd

When Drown released “Subaqueous” last year, I feel it’s safe to say that it didn’t nearly get the attention that it deserved even when compared to its brother and sister bands made by the same guy. Tchornobog, Aureole, and Krukh … Continue reading Drown – Утоплення

Moloch Conspiracy – The Inner Fear

December 6, 2020November 18, 2020 Vinterd

It’s every now and then that we find ourselves in needing of a change. For me, when it comes to music, that need for change tends to come from hearing something different. Ambient has long been my go-to for that … Continue reading Moloch Conspiracy – The Inner Fear

Sarvok – Cabin in Space

November 25, 2020November 25, 2020 Vinterd

The purpose of all music is to transport the listener into a realm where the creator has all but limitless control. It can be used to simply convey a message, or, like in the various worlds of ambient, it’s utilized … Continue reading Sarvok – Cabin in Space

Taurwen – A Wind Blows from the Mountain of Death

August 26, 2020August 8, 2020 Vinterd

If you ask me, the most interesting yet the trickiest style out there of all the stuff that I have for review easily has to be dungeon synth. I only say that because I do genuinely like the concept and … Continue reading Taurwen – A Wind Blows from the Mountain of Death
