Eaters of the Soil – Eaters of the Soil EP III

October 28, 2022October 23, 2022 Vinterd

At some point, it stands to reason that the more a band puts out in a relatively short amount of time will result in less than satisfactory creations as time goes on. It’s something that has befouled many, many names … Continue reading Eaters of the Soil – Eaters of the Soil EP III

Bong-Ra – Meditations

August 2, 2022July 29, 2022 Vinterd

There’s nothing quite like a distinct, unexpected shift in a band’s sound to make one’s head turn. A little bit of a change is one thing with that being something that a band can ease into such that it doesn’t … Continue reading Bong-Ra – Meditations

Eight Bells – Legacy of Ruin

February 22, 2022February 18, 2022 Vinterd

Eaters of the Soil – s/t

August 16, 2021August 4, 2021 Vinterd

The very concept of experimentation in metal is something that makes my mouth salivate in immense excitement as much as it incites mass skepticism into my soul since anything experimental is the very definition of a gamble when we take … Continue reading Eaters of the Soil – s/t
