Hiemis – Nachtstücke

March 3, 2018March 4, 2018 Vinterd

 The brilliance behind the genres of ambiance and noise is the same kind of thing that music, in general, creates for different people as music as almost always been a realm to another world that can only be tapped into … Continue reading Hiemis – Nachtstücke

Coldawn – …In the Dawn

February 25, 2018 Vinterd

 With many of us being in the depths of winter, sometimes it’s music that can really bring out the best of the season. It’s hard to find a metal album that accurately represents a season in general, but black metal … Continue reading Coldawn – …In the Dawn

+Mrome+ – Noetic Collision on the Roof of Hell

February 20, 2018 Vinterd

 It’s hard to look for new metal in today’s world without the material in question being accompanied by some sort of categorization that’s all but incredibly specific. I’m very guilty of doing this as I, like many people, like to … Continue reading +Mrome+ – Noetic Collision on the Roof of Hell

Suum – Buried Into the Grave

February 18, 2018 Vinterd

Structural Repairs – We Choose Violence

February 17, 2018February 18, 2018 Vinterd

 One of the styles that undoubtedly helped me get into metal in the first place is ironically on that I don’t visit very often nowadays: metalcore. It’s a highly scrutinized style amongst the metal community, but like everything, it has its … Continue reading Structural Repairs – We Choose Violence

Lowered – s/t

February 14, 2018February 15, 2018 Vinterd

 The realm of doom is a place that can vary from anything that’s little more than a hit of the ol’ bong to an incredibly dark, terrifying place that only the bravest or most foolish souls dare to venture. While … Continue reading Lowered – s/t

Golgothan Remains – Perverse Offerings to the Void

February 13, 2018February 13, 2018 Vinterd

 The wide pit of rotting corpses that makes up all of modern death metal is by no means a shallow one as we all know the style has more acts that everyone can keep track of. Given that, there are … Continue reading Golgothan Remains – Perverse Offerings to the Void

Rumahoy – The Triumph of Piracy

February 10, 2018February 11, 2018 Vinterd

 With every band that brings something even relatively new to the table that becomes big comes a fair number of bands wanting to get in on that hot new craze. What style other than pirate metal would be perfect for … Continue reading Rumahoy – The Triumph of Piracy

Scolos – Infinite Recursion

February 4, 2018February 5, 2018 Vinterd

 It’s very clear that a band’s first steps as an act can show a lot about what the band is about to get themselves into as well as what we can expect to see in the future should they stay … Continue reading Scolos – Infinite Recursion

Biter – The Eyes of the Biter

February 1, 2018February 2, 2018 Vinterd

 Many people have long regarded heavy metal as the cheesiest of all the metal styles (outside glam metal, naturally), and while that has varying degrees of truth to it I’ve always still had a profound love for the classic feel … Continue reading Biter – The Eyes of the Biter
