Battle Tales – The Ire of the Condemned

January 28, 2018January 29, 2018 Vinterd

 Folk metal has long been a genre that I’ve been very entranced by, but it’s also one of those styles that I find very difficult to find excellence out of simply because I like my folk metal to go above … Continue reading Battle Tales – The Ire of the Condemned

Eigenlicht – Self-Annihilating Consciousness

January 17, 2018January 18, 2018 Vinterd

 At what point does a band become much more than a mere act playing instruments for the enjoyment of others? When does it become more? For many bands out there, metal is a form of discovery and enlightenment be it … Continue reading Eigenlicht – Self-Annihilating Consciousness

Tekarra – s/t

January 14, 2018January 15, 2018 Vinterd

 Easily, my favorite thing about doom metal is how drawn out it can all be and the different approaches that different bands take to make it last for songs as long as five to over twenty minutes. It’s a feat … Continue reading Tekarra – s/t

Beyond the Waves – Mystic Transmission

January 6, 2018August 10, 2018 Vinterd

Towards Atlantis Lights – Dust of Aeons

January 4, 2018January 5, 2018 Vinterd

Vvilderness – Devour the Sun

January 1, 2018 Vinterd

 The realm of blackgaze is a very peculiar one as it’s a very specific sound across just about every single band that ventures within its borders. It’s not often that I’ve seen bands try to do different spins on the … Continue reading Vvilderness – Devour the Sun

The Discordant – Safe Haven

December 31, 2017August 10, 2018 Vinterd

Legendarium – s/t

December 30, 2017December 31, 2017 Vinterd

 The interesting world of punk is something that I’ve always been into but nothing I’ve been a fanatic about. Like metal and rock, it’s got its shining moments of brilliance but not often anything that makes me fall head over … Continue reading Legendarium – s/t
