MRTVI – Negative Atonal Dissonance

June 1, 2017June 4, 2017 Vinterd

 Even the oddest out of us all can appreciate art, that much is certain. However, some minds are too dark, too ambitious, too progressive thinking or any combination of those to be satisfied with the modern description of art represented … Continue reading MRTVI – Negative Atonal Dissonance

Muka – Sveta Stoka

May 29, 2017May 30, 2017 Vinterd

 Any piece of music that has any sort of build up to it must have an explosive climax that’s equal parts captivating as it is pleasing to hear. Doom metal has long been the very embodiment of that, and legions … Continue reading Muka – Sveta Stoka

Nordland – European Paganism

May 25, 2017May 26, 2017 Vinterd

 As someone who’s always been fascinated by realms of high fantasy that are rich with lore and atmosphere to no end, I’ve always been partial to folk metal of several forms, yet I’m extremely picky about it. Mix it with … Continue reading Nordland – European Paganism

In Human Form – Opening of the Eye by the Death of I

May 17, 2017 Vinterd

 I’ve always been fascinated how bands push the envelopes of all music. Does it lead to a new style that not everyone’s going to like but still thrives on?

Heathen Beast – $cam

May 7, 2017May 8, 2017 Vinterd

 Every band has a message – a mission if you will. Yes, the mission varies from band to band much as one squad may have a different objective than another, but it’s the ones that speak out are the ones … Continue reading Heathen Beast – $cam

All My Sins – Lunar/Solar

May 3, 2017May 4, 2017 Vinterd

 The ever-growing realm of black metal is filled with bands that had decided that enough is enough and somewhere down the line split up for one reason or another. A damned shame, really, as there’s always unknown potential in every … Continue reading All My Sins – Lunar/Solar
