Grey Stag – The Boats

December 26, 2019December 22, 2019 Vinterd

 To create some high-quality sludge of any sort, you’re gonna have to know how to create something that’s just as heavy as it is mesmerizing in its own special way. Making it on its own without any support from other … Continue reading Grey Stag – The Boats

Turin Horse – Prohodna

July 19, 2019 Vinterd

To make a soundtrack for the very end of the world is a very novel idea that has seen many attempts over the years across many different forms of music. Foreboding and thick, dark atmospheres with constant pressure are necessary … Continue reading Turin Horse – Prohodna

Hammerhands – Model Citizen

July 5, 2019July 6, 2019 Vinterd

There’s a brand of aggression throughout metal that I just don’t immerse myself in despite my love for it: sludge. It’s so visceral and holds so much excellence in its endless heaviness that it’s hard for me to rip myself … Continue reading Hammerhands – Model Citizen

Oenos – Noir II

June 29, 2019June 30, 2019 Vinterd

For those who take the time to sit down and analyze music, we listen to the extent where you can really pick apart the band’s influences just from listening to them. And it’s become a trend where weed is a … Continue reading Oenos – Noir II

Warcrab – Damned In Endless Night

June 22, 2019June 4, 2019 Vinterd

There are many things to love about metal music as I’m sure we all know, but, easily, one of my favorite things has to simply be how diverse the style is. Some could say that’s a criticism but I find … Continue reading Warcrab – Damned In Endless Night

Leechfeast – Village Creep

May 7, 2019May 8, 2019 Vinterd

It was somewhere in my very first days with doom metal that I heard an album that brought an atmospheric approach to doom metal the likes of which I hadn’t heard before, and it took many more months and a … Continue reading Leechfeast – Village Creep

Axis Mundi – The Depths

April 22, 2019April 23, 2019 Vinterd

Influence is something that I somehow find a way to simultaneously overlook yet take in on many different occasions. It’s something that just happens for me as in many cases you can hear the influence of bands that have become … Continue reading Axis Mundi – The Depths

Inter Arma – Sulphur English

April 1, 2019 Vinterd

It is a great challenge for me to remain as objective as possible whenever I go to listen to an album that I’ve been looking forward to. It was ever since I first held the very first vinyl that I … Continue reading Inter Arma – Sulphur English

Miscarriage – Imminent Horror

February 7, 2019 Vinterd

 Should you be anything like me, one of the glorious things that the underground of metal has provided us comes in the form of the seething base of itself where many insanely nasty death metal acts crawl forth from and … Continue reading Miscarriage – Imminent Horror

Drofnosura – Voidfever

January 24, 2019 Vinterd

 Every now and then, we get something that’s fucking weird. I don’t mean something that’s a mild oddity or an album that just barely sits apart from the rest of the style. I mean something that’s its own fucking entity … Continue reading Drofnosura – Voidfever
