Torturer – Die In Pain

August 13, 2018 Vinterd

 The old school of metal is a place that so many metalheads don’t want to leave. Be it either because they’re incapable of letting go of the past or they simply want to keep the sound going out of love, … Continue reading Torturer – Die In Pain

Trappist – Ancient Brewing Tactics

August 12, 2018 Vinterd

 Anything related to the world of punk music has long been something that I’ve always been interested in because I can really dig a raw attitude that wastes no time and is only here to destroy everyone and everything in … Continue reading Trappist – Ancient Brewing Tactics

Project: Wormhole – Time Beings

August 6, 2018 Vinterd

 Jazz has long been something that I’ve only really been able to appreciate in very small doses. I just simply can’t get into the style as a whole, but seeing its influences peppered throughout metal here and there definitely makes … Continue reading Project: Wormhole – Time Beings

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

Satan’s Acolytes – The Horns

July 27, 2018 Vinterd

 More often than not, I turn to the wide reaches of black metal whenever I want to see some crispy Satanic metal brought to the table that I can just jam out to because fuck yes. However, Satan doesn’t only … Continue reading Satan’s Acolytes – The Horns

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

Khôrada – Salt

July 21, 2018July 21, 2018 Vinterd

 Each of us has a band that everyone else seems to like, yet we never got into for one reason or another. It’s always a more popular band even if the act is still undoubtedly underground, and for me the … Continue reading Khôrada – Salt

Heads for the Dead – Serpent’s Curse

July 20, 2018 Vinterd

 There are many times that I go into a death metal record and end up just feeling so… bored. It’s something that I genuinely don’t enjoy given how much I love some good death metal, but every now and then … Continue reading Heads for the Dead – Serpent’s Curse

Earthgrave – First Snow of the Final Winter

June 29, 2018June 30, 2018 Vinterd

 Melodic death metal has always been a fun style for me given the obvious points of how there’s the intensity that death metal brings to the table whilst having a solid form to it that enables things like anthems to … Continue reading Earthgrave – First Snow of the Final Winter

Major Affective Disorder – Hate City Timeshare Thrash

June 26, 2018June 27, 2018 Vinterd

 I’ve always considered myself spoiled by today’s modern studio technology as I’ve always preferred a more refined, smooth listening experience in terms of sound quality versus something a demo from whatever garage band. But I have been trying to break … Continue reading Major Affective Disorder – Hate City Timeshare Thrash
