Montagne – Poudreuse

March 27, 2023March 26, 2023 Vinterd

For as long as I’ve been doing these reviews, I’ve never once failed to be fascinated to watch a band’s path forward with their sound changing as they press onward in their own personal journeys. When I first came upon … Continue reading Montagne – Poudreuse

Riptides – s/t

March 23, 2023March 15, 2023 Vinterd

Metalcore can be a fickle thing given the sound’s modern reputation that can just as easily be favorable as it can be hated depending completely on who you’re asking. If you ask me, it’s the same as any other style … Continue reading Riptides – s/t

For I Am King – Crown

December 18, 2022December 16, 2022 Vinterd

It hasn’t been since the last offering from Whitechapel that anything from the worlds of metalcore or deathcore has really managed to come around and grab me by the throat in any meaningful fashion. All droughts come to an end, … Continue reading For I Am King – Crown

Tiberius – A Peaceful Annihilation

June 20, 2020June 7, 2020 Vinterd

It can easily seem like many of the different styles of metal are constantly copying themselves without much variation in the sound despite the obvious contrary, but very few seem guilty of that more than that of metalcore. The unjustly … Continue reading Tiberius – A Peaceful Annihilation

Parallax – s/t

November 12, 2019November 2, 2019 Vinterd

It’s long been my philosophy that metalcore gets way too bad of a wrap over the years simply because of some of bands that have been out there that have subsequently given the style a bad name for one reason … Continue reading Parallax – s/t

Killswitch Engage – Atonement

August 3, 2019August 4, 2019 Vinterd

Hearing that there was a new Killswitch Engage album on the horizon didn’t feel all the fantastic or anything like that when I first heard about it as it’s every few years we’ve gotten something from them, and, if I’m … Continue reading Killswitch Engage – Atonement

Aktaion – Above Empires

June 27, 2019June 28, 2019 Vinterd

I don’t know about you, but if you’re anything like me then you know that this year has been an absolutely ridiculous year with a new spectacular release coming out of nowhere every few weeks if not multiple times in … Continue reading Aktaion – Above Empires

Every Hour Kills – Fragile Machine

August 14, 2018 Vinterd

 It has been quite a while since I dove into the world of metalcore by any standards simply because for a while it felt like there wasn’t anything interesting for me to find in the style. Yet, I wanted to … Continue reading Every Hour Kills – Fragile Machine
