Active since 2011, Nuclear Winter (Zimbabwe) is now at four full-lengths and two EPs. At this point the sound of Nuclear Winter is Gary Stautmeister's vehicle for whatever he wants to do, working by himself for a groove-oriented melodic extreme metal. While some of the music may sound like melodic death metal, there is a certain element of machine music going on, from the programmd drumming and background sounds. In addition, Gary Stautmeister has some melodic singing, and a certain attachment to doing some unexpected things, like covering pop music or adding a few unexpected twists every now and then. There is probably no one genre that the music fits in really well, and that likely one of the main of objectives of Nuclear Winter: to keep the heaviness, but add melody, some backgrounds sounds, and sprinkle things with some pop infuences, even though the pop sounds are not always upfront, certainly not as much as the grooves and growling.
