Circle of Salt – Suffer the Cold

October 12, 2017October 17, 2017 Vinterd

 I’ve never really been big into re-releases or reissues of any kind other than simply because it helps new people discover old material that has both entertainment and enough flavor to still be relevant after the piece in question had … Continue reading Circle of Salt – Suffer the Cold

The Wakedead Gathering / Ecferus – s/t

October 11, 2017October 12, 2017 Vinterd

 The very dark world of black and death metal is a realm that’s incredibly hostile, as you might imagine, and it’s extremely oversaturated in today’s day and age. It can become a land of horrors very easily, and the genre … Continue reading The Wakedead Gathering / Ecferus – s/t

Black Kirin – Nanking Massacre

October 10, 2017October 11, 2017 Vinterd

 The world is a big place. It’s very easy for a talented band to go almost virtually unnoticed by the majority whenever they put out material. That goes double for underground metal bands, and even more so for those who … Continue reading Black Kirin – Nanking Massacre

Cauldron – Regnum-Phobos

October 8, 2017October 9, 2017 Vinterd

 Throughout the various generations that have been touched by the darkness of black metal, an innumerable amount of people have tried to recapture the original feel of black metal. I’ve only ever come across a handful of bands who nailed … Continue reading Cauldron – Regnum-Phobos

Bloodway – A Fragile Riddle Crypting Clues

October 4, 2017October 5, 2017 Vinterd

 The quest to do something that’s not only fresh but also pleasing to hear is one that millions upon millions of people have tried completing, and millions have failed. Yet, there are some bands that seem to do so just … Continue reading Bloodway – A Fragile Riddle Crypting Clues

Der Toten Lebend Schein – .​.​.​von Leichen bewohnt

October 1, 2017October 2, 2017 Vinterd

 There are some people in the world that refuse to let the constraints of time keep them tied down and prevent them from creating new music that can truly deliver. It’s a great thing to see a band that hasn’t … Continue reading Der Toten Lebend Schein – .​.​.​von Leichen bewohnt

Inconcessus Lux Lucis – The Crowning Quietus

September 27, 2017 Vinterd

 Inconcessus Lux Lucis is one of those bands that I heard during the first months of me doing reviews where I really didn’t have a fucking clue at what I was doing. I’ve made it a personal goal of mine … Continue reading Inconcessus Lux Lucis – The Crowning Quietus

Precipices – La Pénombre de L’agir

September 24, 2017September 25, 2017 Vinterd

 The sound of black metal has always been one that has always been dependent on the setting of the music to really set the tone for the ensuing chaos. Many go for a forest setting, others space, and more go … Continue reading Precipices – La Pénombre de L’agir

Widziadło – Void

September 20, 2017September 21, 2017 Vinterd

 With each style of metal comes a specific environment that can fit each style quite nicely. Doom metal gets places akin to a graveyard at dusk where the fog covers the ground, death metal gets a slaughterhouse that has blood … Continue reading Widziadło – Void

Grief & Bliss – Endeavor

September 16, 2017September 17, 2017 Vinterd

 The world is peppered with a certain kind of people that take music to routes solemnly taken or even go as far as to create entirely new strands of music that can only be defined as wholly unique. It’s people … Continue reading Grief & Bliss – Endeavor
