June 25, 2020June 9, 2020 Vinterd

Osi and the Jupiter – Appalachia

June 17, 2020June 2, 2020 Vinterd

While the great vast majority of albums that I review here fall into the worlds of rock and metal, I find it both fun and important to wander elsewhere. The somewhat adjacent realms of atmospheric styles like noise, ambient, neofolk, … Continue reading Osi and the Jupiter – Appalachia

Mario Lino Stancati – Cross the Desert

June 13, 2020May 31, 2020 Vinterd

We’ve all come across artists of many different kinds of styles that consider themselves the highest level that an artist could be as they consider themselves auteurs and other fancy terms. Very smarmy pricks that make you hate the word … Continue reading Mario Lino Stancati – Cross the Desert

May 23, 2020May 12, 2020 Vinterd

Just a few days ago with my review for Fleshvessel’s debut EP, “Bile of Man Reborn”, I claimed that it was incredibly inventive on every level and not afraid whatsoever to cross genre lines to create something unique and electrifying. … Continue reading Neptunian Maximalism – Éons

Sojourner – Premonitions

May 10, 2020 Vinterd

I’ve long been proud of the fact that I’ve witnessed the rise of a good number of bands in my time doing these reviews. Some of them were pretty quick, others still in progress like what I’m witnessing with Howling … Continue reading Sojourner – Premonitions
