Winter (metal band)

Winter (metal band) Winter is an American extreme metal band from New York City. They take their name from the Amebix song of the same name. Quotes about Winter Their influence can be heard on pretty much any death/doom band worth their salt. Winter were always closer to punk in mindset, even if the music was doom, and their sound lives on not only in those who have ripped them off over the years – that list is long – but in guitarist Stephen Flam’s new project, Göden, too, which takes its name from a Winter track and sees Flam play an array of custom-made guitars he co-designed himself. Jonathan Horsley of Guitar World (March 21, 2022) Along with Paradise Lost, New York outfit Winter’s only album Into Darkness helped draw a line for doom between the blues of Sabbath and the more traditional metal leanings of bands like Trouble, and somewhere much, much more grim. Nick Ruksell of Kerrang! (December 10, 2020) [Winter] carried [the] monochrome crust-punk aesthetic [of Amebix] into their musical outlook with a bleaker-than-thou sound heavily informed by the Hellhammer/Celtic Frost paradigm.
