Conjureth – Majestic Dissolve

October 23, 2021October 13, 2021 Vinterd

The very base of the underground is a great place to find all sorts of nasty material whether it’s blatant worship of the greats of the past or bold exploration that has nothing to fear in any form. It’s one … Continue reading Conjureth – Majestic Dissolve

King Buffalo – Acheron

October 22, 2021October 22, 2021 Vinterd

Coming into 2021, one of the most exciting news of the year for any fan of heavy music was knowing that King Buffalo had plans to release three albums before the year’s end. However, given the state of things, namely … Continue reading King Buffalo – Acheron

Whitechapel – Kin

October 21, 2021October 14, 2021 Vinterd

At this point in their exemplary run, Whitechapel really shouldn’t need any introduction. Since the beginning, they’ve been priming themselves as one of the quintessential bands of deathcore in many people’s eyes with every album having something new and interesting … Continue reading Whitechapel – Kin

Bøg – Growth

October 20, 2021October 8, 2021 Vinterd

Unbridled heaviness is something that many corners of metal have an immensely good grasp on in some form or another, making it really easy for us listeners to be able to see it come in nearly infinite forms. Going all … Continue reading Bøg – Growth

Wombbath – Agma

October 19, 2021October 13, 2021 Vinterd

If we were to consider what all top-tier bands of death metal would be releasing material this year, I wouldn’t have put Wombbath on the list. We had just heard from the modern legends at the tail end of last … Continue reading Wombbath – Agma

Grim Earth – In the Throes of Madness

October 18, 2021October 7, 2021 Vinterd

More often than not, whenever I envision some sludge metal I always think of the most intense variety from the likes of what Lord Dying seems to be moving away from to the powerhouse of Eremit with their utterly monolithic … Continue reading Grim Earth – In the Throes of Madness

Vertebra Atlantis – Lustral Purge In Cerulean Bliss

October 17, 2021October 2, 2021 Vinterd

As someone who is pretty inept at crafting even one song, it’s no less than bewildering to me whenever I see a single musician be a part of multiple acts at one time with each of them constantly churning out … Continue reading Vertebra Atlantis – Lustral Purge In Cerulean Bliss

Jointhugger – Surrounded by Vultures

October 16, 2021October 2, 2021 Vinterd

Anytime I see a band release more than one piece of material in any given year, it always prompts a cocked eyebrow from me. It’s a dangerous game, though, where it very much follows a trend of high risk, high … Continue reading Jointhugger – Surrounded by Vultures

Ars Magna Umbrae – Throne Between Worlds

October 15, 2021October 1, 2021 Vinterd

When we’re to consider the very reputation of Ars Magnus Umbrae, I can’t help but have a smile creep across my face. The act has not been around long by any stretch, but it’s in the few years since releasing … Continue reading Ars Magna Umbrae – Throne Between Worlds

Devil’s Reef – A Whisper From the Cosmos

October 14, 2021October 8, 2021 Vinterd

The quickly expanding world of technical death metal is one that is incredibly hard to keep up with at times. It’s easily one of the fastest-growing scenes in all of metal for multiple reasons as we see just how ridiculous … Continue reading Devil’s Reef – A Whisper From the Cosmos
