Howling Giant – Black Hole Space Wizard: Part 2

July 26, 2017December 7, 2020 Vinterd

 Being late to the party is almost always better than never showing up for it at all. That’s how I felt when I heard Howling Giant’s “Black Hole Space Wizard: Part 1” months after its release. It was a delicious … Continue reading Howling Giant – Black Hole Space Wizard: Part 2

Kylver – The Island

July 18, 2017August 10, 2018 Vinterd

 A story in an album is always something that can easily draw people in, and that goes double for me. I’m a real sucker for a good story, and when it’s woven in a very well crafted album then what’s … Continue reading Kylver – The Island

Destroyer of Light – Chamber of Horrors

July 16, 2017July 17, 2017 Vinterd

The Midnight Ghost Train – Cypress Ave.

July 11, 2017July 12, 2017 Vinterd

 Two years ago, I was presented with an album that was as heavy as it was groovy, unforgiving as it was entrancing, and had as much bass than what anyone could ever ask for. The Midnight Ghost Train gave me … Continue reading The Midnight Ghost Train – Cypress Ave.

Switchboard Marion – The Wolf

July 1, 2017July 2, 2017 Vinterd

Tornado Kid – Hateful 10

June 3, 2017June 4, 2017 Vinterd

 It’s quite hard to find a band anymore who seems to make music purely to have fun as so many others do it simply to see if they can or do it for the money, but I always figured that … Continue reading Tornado Kid – Hateful 10

Elder – Reflections of a Floating World

June 2, 2017 Vinterd

 There’s a certain kind of euphoria that comes out of bands that really take their music to a world beyond our’s and manage to craft something that would seem to be a drug-fueled sequence of psychedelia. I’ve been lucky to know … Continue reading Elder – Reflections of a Floating World

Sautrus – Anthony Hill

May 28, 2017May 29, 2017 Vinterd

 Throughout history, no style of music has created a bigger following, bigger lifestyle, or caused more controversy than rock. Be it current day metal or when AC/DC was considered devil’s music to some, rock has played a crucial role in hundreds … Continue reading Sautrus – Anthony Hill
