Divine Element – Thaurachs Of Borsu

April 5, 2017 Vinterd

 The last band to have really gone beyond the call of duty and combined so many different types of metal that it sounded like a clusterfuck on paper was the samurai metal pioneers of Whispered. Combining folk, power, melo-death, and … Continue reading Divine Element – Thaurachs Of Borsu

Assault – The Fallen Reich

March 22, 2017March 23, 2017 Vinterd

Drug Honkey – Cloak of Skies

March 19, 2017March 20, 2017 Vinterd

 Personally, I’ve never been super big on the whole experimental side of metal as it always leads to weird creations that more often than not lead to me disliking what I’m experiencing. Last time I was impressed by the experiments … Continue reading Drug Honkey – Cloak of Skies

Evocation – The Shadow Archetype

March 2, 2017 Vinterd

 Just when I think Sweden seemingly can’t produce any more noteworthy bands, I get another few groups thrown at my face. It’s been awhile since that’s happened, but today the country has thrown but one band my way: Evocation. Going … Continue reading Evocation – The Shadow Archetype

Warcrab – Scars of Aeons

March 1, 2017March 1, 2017 Vinterd
