Disamara – Notturna è la Quiete

June 16, 2020June 2, 2020 Vinterd

It’s not unoften that I find myself listening to an album and eventually turning it off just because it hasn’t grasped me in any sort of way. That’s something every music fan can admit to whether they like it or … Continue reading Disamara – Notturna è la Quiete

Barbaric Horde – Axe of Superior Savagery

June 14, 2020June 1, 2020 Vinterd

Incredibly raw, caustic, and unforgiving extreme metal is far from an uncommon sight in today’s climate where it can easily seem like there’s a constant arms race across the underground that continues to fire off an undeniably aggressive and hugely … Continue reading Barbaric Horde – Axe of Superior Savagery

Cursed Be Thy Flesh – The Ritual

June 12, 2020May 31, 2020 Vinterd

I have always been the type of person to really enjoy music that goes above and beyond to create something unique and special the likes of which we’ve rarely heard before if at all. But, that doesn’t mean even the … Continue reading Cursed Be Thy Flesh – The Ritual

Ljosazabojstwa – Głoryja Śmierci

June 10, 2020May 31, 2020 Vinterd

At some point all the bands that I’ve come across in my time of doing these reviews, it’s not a shock that some bands, however notable, will fade into the back of my head over time just because of the … Continue reading Ljosazabojstwa – Głoryja Śmierci

Corpsing – Civilisation Under Nefarious Tyrants

June 8, 2020May 26, 2020 Vinterd

The number of times that we’ve seen any kind of combination of black and death metal is so unfathomably high that we could likely talk about them for a decade straight and not come close to covering all of them. … Continue reading Corpsing – Civilisation Under Nefarious Tyrants

Heathen Beast – The Revolution Will Not Be Televised But It Will Be Heard

June 4, 2020May 24, 2020 Vinterd

It doesn’t take a genius to know that anger of any kind plays a crucial part in an extremely large part of all music, and metal has been known to take that to another level with good reason. We’re always … Continue reading Heathen Beast – The Revolution Will Not Be Televised But It Will Be Heard

Herxheim – Incised Arrival

June 1, 2020May 19, 2020 Vinterd

Ever since 2017, there has been a gaping hole in my listening habits where Howls of Ebb used to be. The band’s split-up, whether on good terms or not, was a real blow for someone like me who came to … Continue reading Herxheim – Incised Arrival

Nexion – Seven Oracles

May 28, 2020May 18, 2020 Vinterd

There have been many times where I crave some off the chain black metal that holds nothing back in terms of pure craziness. An assault on your ears is something that you rarely know you need until it comes upon … Continue reading Nexion – Seven Oracles

Creature – Ex Cathedra

May 26, 2020May 12, 2020 Vinterd

It’s been in the last few days that I’ve had the immense pleasure of checking out some incredibly experimental music and have used that word enough for a fucking lifetime, but it’s just so damn appropriate! So, when I dove … Continue reading Creature – Ex Cathedra

Evilfeast / Uuntar – Odes to Lands of Past Traditions

May 24, 2020May 12, 2020 Vinterd

The modern state of black metal is still in a stage that I can’t help but feel is still in the best condition that it has been for such a long time with the sound being far more available than … Continue reading Evilfeast / Uuntar – Odes to Lands of Past Traditions
