Dwaellicht – Te Vuur En Te Zwaard

May 14, 2020May 4, 2020 Vinterd

Every single time I come across most if not every form of funeral doom that I’ve encountered, it is constantly an unrelentingly heavy experience that not many other styles in all of music could ever hope to match. We’re rarely … Continue reading Dwaellicht – Te Vuur En Te Zwaard

Throwing Bricks – What Will Be Lost

May 13, 2020May 4, 2020 Vinterd

To bring together different styles in order to capture a different sound is something that we’ve seen hundreds of times across the history of metal, and it’s still something I get a lot of enjoyment out of to this day. … Continue reading Throwing Bricks – What Will Be Lost

Sepulchral Curse – Only Ashes Remain

May 13, 2020May 13, 2020 Vinterd

Finnish death metal is something that will likely never get old. It’s just one of those sounds that work in so many different ways and can be changed into so many different forms if you just change hands from one … Continue reading Sepulchral Curse – Only Ashes Remain

May 12, 2020May 3, 2020 Vinterd

The very fact that metal is as widespread as it is across the globe is a very fun thing because we get to see bands from more well-known places like Sweden to the US and lesser-known like Chile and India … Continue reading Deviltook – At War With Gods

Fargue – Phosphène

May 11, 2020May 2, 2020 Vinterd

A lot of styles out there really know how to grab my attention by doing something different or just sounding interesting, but anything related to drone has long been something that I’ve always had a solid interest in. It’s only … Continue reading Fargue – Phosphène

May 10, 2020April 28, 2020 Vinterd

You know those albums that you saw spread like wildfire months ago that you remembered wanting to check out but just never did? This is one of those for me. I remember people going nuts over this release and I … Continue reading Vástígr – Aura Aeternitatis

Sojourner – Premonitions

May 10, 2020 Vinterd

I’ve long been proud of the fact that I’ve witnessed the rise of a good number of bands in my time doing these reviews. Some of them were pretty quick, others still in progress like what I’m witnessing with Howling … Continue reading Sojourner – Premonitions

Ostracist – Epoch

May 9, 2020April 28, 2020 Vinterd

Gothic material tends to be something that I don’t find myself enjoying as much as I feel I should be simply because the material tends to be lacking in multiple departments for me. Either from the overall quality or just … Continue reading Ostracist – Epoch

Noctilucant – Amongst the Snow and the Shadows

May 8, 2020April 27, 2020 Vinterd

There are many ambient acts out there that can easily say they’ve done something interesting or whatever, but in order to actually stand out your quality needs to be unquestionable right from the beginning.

Exaugurate – Chasm of Rapturous Delirium

May 7, 2020April 27, 2020 Vinterd

Discovering some filthy death metal that’s actually worth its own salt is always a fun thing to find no matter the occasion because some proper nasty death metal isn’t quite like anything else out there. It can just as easily … Continue reading Exaugurate – Chasm of Rapturous Delirium
