The Overmold – s/t

February 23, 2025February 18, 2025 Vinterd

The outer fringes of what metal can still be even after so much experimentation and unabated innovation are no less than overwhelmingly fascinating to me. The possibilities are nigh on endless in the right circumstances with the modern landscape of … Continue reading The Overmold – s/t

Lotus Thief / Forelesen – split

January 21, 2024January 10, 2024 Vinterd

We are all familiar with the concept of a split album with some of the more unexpectedly interesting experiences in the underground coming from them, but there’s always more to them than what would normally meet the eye. When splits … Continue reading Lotus Thief / Forelesen – split

Sol – Promethean Sessions

October 23, 2023October 12, 2023 Vinterd

It has been far too long since a piece has come before that has really taken the boundaries of metal and tossed them to the side to create an experience that is as dynamic as it is deep for all … Continue reading Sol – Promethean Sessions

Iskandr – Spiritus Sylvestris

September 2, 2023August 23, 2023 Vinterd

I have had my fair share of witnessing bands of many different creeds and genres pivot their sound to something that is certifiably different be it from the likes of Opeth or recently Horrendous, but there are cases when we … Continue reading Iskandr – Spiritus Sylvestris

Ursular – Preta

August 6, 2023July 26, 2023 Vinterd

While the attention of many would be on the likes of Rezn when it comes to out-of-the-box and superb heaviness in rock for what 2023 has thrown our way, there is always more to absorb should you simply look in … Continue reading Ursular – Preta

The Giant’s Fall – s/t

February 16, 2023February 7, 2023 Vinterd

For the most part, whenever instrumental rock comes around it tends to be from the realm of deep, dense psychedelia. Now, I have no complaints with that as the style still proves to be amazingly bountiful no matter how often … Continue reading The Giant’s Fall – s/t

Legends of the Desert: Volume 1 – Palehorse/Palerider & Lord Buffalo

September 16, 2020August 30, 2020 Vinterd

There are few things that get me stroking my beard in immense interest as a solid and worthwhile split between two awesome bands. Lord Buffalo has been a constant in my listening habits for years now, and Palehorse/Palerider has been … Continue reading Legends of the Desert: Volume 1 – Palehorse/Palerider & Lord Buffalo

Kingnomad – The Great Nothing

September 8, 2018 Vinterd

 A really special style that has been around for decades but has made one hell of a comeback with modern listeners is the glorious world of heavy psych. Those two words cover a lot of ground as that could range … Continue reading Kingnomad – The Great Nothing
