Stavves – The Desert Gloats

November 11, 2017 Vinterd

 I’ve always felt like black metal can be put in environments much different than woods or space (despite how vast those locations can be made) because the chaos can be morphed so easily if put in the right hands. For … Continue reading Stavves – The Desert Gloats

Nightgrave – Echo

November 1, 2017November 2, 2017 Vinterd

 To create music is to create a world of your own personality where everything breathes and exists exactly the way you want it to. It’s understandably very difficult to create such a vivid image and then bring it to life … Continue reading Nightgrave – Echo

A Pale December – The Shrine of Primal Fire

October 28, 2017October 29, 2017 Vinterd

 When I was first getting into metal, the realm of atmospheric black metal was something that really called me, and that prompted an investigation. It’s been years since my first incursion into the dark realm, but it’s been a hell … Continue reading A Pale December – The Shrine of Primal Fire

Tongues – Hreilia

October 26, 2017October 27, 2017 Vinterd

 Somewhere in the vast expanse of the cosmos lies a small corner of darkness that’s rarely acknowledged because it keeps to itself for the most part and only comes towards the grand stage of it all. It happens quite rarely, … Continue reading Tongues – Hreilia

Itnuveth – Tales and Legends of Wolves

October 22, 2017October 23, 2017 Vinterd

 Easily, my favorite thing about the massive underground of metal is the amount of talent that there is spread throughout it, and finding a good band that not that many others know of feels like a real treasure find. That’s … Continue reading Itnuveth – Tales and Legends of Wolves

October 19, 2017October 20, 2017 Vinterd

Mork – Eremittens Dal

October 13, 2017October 14, 2017 Vinterd

 To watch a band grow from but another speck in a very vast underground that’s all but oversaturated, it’s very satisfying to see the band bloom into something applause-worthy and even gain the praises from masters of their style! Mork … Continue reading Mork – Eremittens Dal
