Toadeater – Demo

August 30, 2018 Vinterd

 The vast majority of the time, I stay away from demos. It’s simply because I’d much rather hear the sound that the band is trying to make in its finished product after going through post-production. I can appreciate the raw … Continue reading Toadeater – Demo

Lifelost – Dialogues From Beyond

August 26, 2018August 27, 2018 Vinterd

 The concept of wanting to try out different styles for whatever reason you may have is something that I can really get behind. It’s nice to change things up and see what else you can do because you simply want … Continue reading Lifelost – Dialogues From Beyond

Dalkhu – Lamentation and Ardent Fire

August 22, 2018August 22, 2018 Vinterd

 I absolutely love coming back around to bands that I came across years ago but virtually forgot all about for one reason or another. With the amount of music I listen to and with my taste really shifting and becoming … Continue reading Dalkhu – Lamentation and Ardent Fire

Imperialist – Cipher

August 16, 2018August 19, 2018 Vinterd

Nowadays whenever we look at space and black metal coming together, the majority of the time it’s being embodied by some atmospheric or cosmic black metal act like Mesarthim. But what if we simply explored the vacuum without getting too … Continue reading Imperialist – Cipher

Blood of Serpents – Sulphur Sovereign

August 3, 2018August 4, 2018 Vinterd

 The world is black metal has more bands now than it ever has. But we all know that quantity doesn’t always mean quality especially for those of us that feel slightly bored of the lo-fi attempts at recreating the old … Continue reading Blood of Serpents – Sulphur Sovereign

Wraith – Heed the Warning

August 1, 2018 Vinterd

 Recently, I’ve been on a small stint of checking into the world of thrash and crossover thrash where there have been plenty of acts that have flown under my radar until recently coming into my sight. Coming back to Wraith, … Continue reading Wraith – Heed the Warning

Chaoshorde – Hordes Arising

July 29, 2018 Vinterd

 For whatever reason, I always think of thrash metal in Greece before any other country in the world. Acts like Suicidal Angels and Biotoxic Warfare truly grasped my attention for the scene there, and for years everytime I turn to … Continue reading Chaoshorde – Hordes Arising

The Nightly Disease – Smell of Burning Wood

July 28, 2018August 10, 2018 Vinterd

 There’s a certain sense of wonder that is found in almost all instrumental rock and metal albums given how the two styles rely on vocals just as much as the instruments. But styles like doom metal or psychedelic rock are … Continue reading The Nightly Disease – Smell of Burning Wood

Cosmic Autumn – s/t

July 26, 2018 Vinterd

 The constant search for quality atmospheric black metal can become quite tiresome at times with the oversaturation of the style being an absolutely monumental task to take on. Simply sifting through the records to find something you can enjoy is … Continue reading Cosmic Autumn – s/t

Integrity / Krieg – Split

July 22, 2018July 23, 2018 Vinterd

 I’ve always been one that’s up for a good split. Whether it be two bands that have a similar sound that want to have a split together because why not or two bands that share a label with B-tracks from … Continue reading Integrity / Krieg – Split
