Chiral – Gazing Light Eternity

September 29, 2016 Vinterd

 I don’t know what it is, but there’s just something so goddamn alluring about one man bands. Maybe it’s seeing what one person can accomplish musically, or maybe it’s to see how a group of say three or four can … Continue reading Chiral – Gazing Light Eternity

Rudra – Enemy of Duality

September 18, 2016 Vinterd

 The only limit that a band can truly have is their imagination. You can use an instrument or a perform a style however you please, but it’s the imagination used to create the content that tends to make or break … Continue reading Rudra – Enemy of Duality

Oldd Wvrms – Ignobilis

September 8, 2016September 8, 2016 Vinterd

 Delving into the world of the weird and abnormal can go plenty of different ways, and it’s either going to end in you being freaked out or wanting more. I hadn’t heard anything remotely weird for a while, but along … Continue reading Oldd Wvrms – Ignobilis

Sarcoptes – Songs and Dances of Death

September 5, 2016 Vinterd

 Whenever I see such a vague, detailed, and weird as fuck cover art such as what you’re witnessing now does nothing for me except prompt immediate investigation. I didn’t know what ensued was going to be the most enticing piece … Continue reading Sarcoptes – Songs and Dances of Death

Minenwerfer / 1914 – Ich hatt einen Kameraden

September 4, 2016 Vinterd

 Splits are really my lazy way of finding bands that are like those that I already like. For example: last split I reviewed featured Ende and Sorcier des Glaces, and I’d never heard of SDG beforehand but once I saw … Continue reading Minenwerfer / 1914 – Ich hatt einen Kameraden

Seputus – Man Does Not Give

August 28, 2016 Vinterd

 Just when you think you listen to what can be considered some fucking raw metal that is as uncompromising as it is fast, there’s always something that’ll blindside you and show you there’s so much more. I listen to plenty … Continue reading Seputus – Man Does Not Give

Nil Miserans – s/t

August 21, 2016August 22, 2016 Vinterd

 It’s probably debuts that are my favorite kinds of albums because it shows what’s going on inside the brains of the involved musician(s) who wrote it who don’t have to worry about repeating themselves or letting down fans because they’re … Continue reading Nil Miserans – s/t

Show Me a Dinosaur – s/t

August 20, 2016 Vinterd

 You know those albums that cover both ends of the spectrum when it comes to what kind of energy (peaceful and brutal as fuck)? They always seem to have a certain level of elegance about them even in the more … Continue reading Show Me a Dinosaur – s/t

Mare Cognitum – Luminiferous Aether

August 14, 2016 Vinterd

 There are but a hand full of bands out there in the world that you only need the group’s name for explanation, given people actually know who you’re talking about. Mare Cognitum is easily one such band as even that … Continue reading Mare Cognitum – Luminiferous Aether

Veldes – Ember Breather

July 31, 2016 Vinterd

 As of late, I’ve been really satisfying my fix for black metal (particularly of the atmospheric nature) because I hadn’t delved into that dark world for quite some time. So, naturally, I searched for new and interesting material and I … Continue reading Veldes – Ember Breather
