Vixenta – Polarity

August 24, 2021August 10, 2021 Vinterd

Black metal has always had a certain essence of iciness to it all when we consider the style in some of its rawest forms, but it’s not terribly often that we see a band expand on that to really take … Continue reading Vixenta – Polarity

Nuummite – Celetial Triarchy

August 10, 2021August 2, 2021 Vinterd

When we have a conversation about anything related to post-metal or post-rock, it tends to be the latter that dominates conversations simply due to the sheer volume of rock acts that take on post elements as opposed to its metal … Continue reading Nuummite – Celetial Triarchy

Dimwind – Slow Wave Violence

June 12, 2021May 31, 2021 Vinterd

The vast majority of the time, it’s within the vast world of rock that instrumental acts tend to find a home in rather than in the world of metal. Something about rock is more appealing to instrumental acts out there, … Continue reading Dimwind – Slow Wave Violence

Zorya – Primeval

May 21, 2021May 9, 2021 Vinterd

To have an atmosphere is not always to have quality. That’s a concept that far too many bands have struggled with for one reason or another with many thinking that a thick atmosphere leads to a worthwhile experience, but it … Continue reading Zorya – Primeval

Vela Pulsar – Memoirs Of Unbecoming

May 10, 2021April 25, 2021 Vinterd

When it comes to what we normally expect from black metal, dreary environments and only the darkest of emotions come to mind given how harsh and unforgiving the style has always been in a great majority of its forms, but … Continue reading Vela Pulsar – Memoirs Of Unbecoming

Devastating Light – I Have Already Failed You

May 1, 2021April 13, 2021 Vinterd

Whenever I see a musician who is deeply rooted in one style branch out to try something different whether it be within an already established band or creating a new one, I tend to stroke my beard slightly in interest. … Continue reading Devastating Light – I Have Already Failed You

Cortége – Chasing Daylight

February 10, 2021February 6, 2021 Vinterd

It’s not terribly often by any standards that we can come across an album, instrumental or not, and feel like it can actually be the soundtrack to a film. Whether it’s the entire body of music for a short film, … Continue reading Cortége – Chasing Daylight

Breaths – Lined in Silver

February 5, 2021January 22, 2021 Vinterd

Easily, my greatest flaw with doing reviews and seeking what album to listen to is that I rely far too much on the cover art before I even hear a single note, sometimes deciding not to listen to an effort … Continue reading Breaths – Lined in Silver

Burial Clouds – Last Days of a Dying World

February 1, 2021January 21, 2021 Vinterd

The simple act of standing in an empty field and watching the sky darken as dusk slowly folds over into night isn’t much to go off of when from an emotional front, or so it would seem at the surface. … Continue reading Burial Clouds – Last Days of a Dying World

Novarupta – Marine Snow

October 20, 2020September 30, 2020 Vinterd

It’s only on occasion that I find myself caught solely by an album’s cover art or even just the title. The art is what draws me in the vast majority of the time, especially when I’m browsing Bandcamp just glances … Continue reading Novarupta – Marine Snow
