OPETH Mainman Returns To BLOODBATH
- Jan. 30, 2008
|
|
Swedish death metal supergroup BLOODBATH has issued the following update: "So the time has come for BLOODBATH to once again poison the scene with a contagious doze of über brutal death metal. An old acquaintance in this zombified bloodline has once again re-visited his old home. We can now announce that the vocalist on the new mini-CD is none other than Mikael Åkerfeldt courtesy of OPETH. "Second deathster to join the elite is Mr. Per 'Sodomizer' Eriksson (ex- 21 LUCIFERS, ex- GENOCRUSH FEROX). Sodomizer's brutal death metal songwriting approach as well as guitar shredding is a highly welcomed element in the legacy of BLOODBATH." BLOODBATH 2008 is: Mikael Åkerfeldt - Vocals Anders "Blakkheim" Nyström - Guitar Per "Sodomizer" Eriksson - Guitar Jonas Renkse - Bass Martin "Axe" Axenrot – Drums Check out a photo of the new lineup at this location. BLOODBATH's latest album, "Nightmares Made Flesh", received a U.S. release in March 2005 via Century Media Records. Due to the long gap between the European and North American release dates, the American version was enhanced with two bonus songs taken from a previously unreleased demo recording of "Breeding Death" EP, as well as a different front cover, featuring artwork by Wes Benscoter. BLOODBATH performing at Germany's Wacken Open Air festival in 2005 (featuring Mikael Åkerfeldt):

"I wish the fuck the idiots on here would learn to speak english instead of speaking fucking geek and nerd."
You "wish the fuck the idiots?" Maybe you're the one that needs an english lesson, numb nuts. You sure do have a mastery of the word "fuck," though, an obvious sign of your immense maturity over twelve-year-olds.

Yes, I do.
Since you have trouble keeping up with the language of "fucking geek and nerd," I'll try some lingo that's more comprehensible to you:
I'll take a #4 extra value meal and a four-piece McNuggets.

BTW I liked RTC better than NMF, but both were good. We will see what the Swano abscence and Akerfeldt presence will bring.
-deanerhead-:
Maybe Devasta0r was in the military, hence the masterful use of the word 'fuck'. 60% of the Canadian military is East Coasters, you know.

This is awesome news... being such a huge Mikael fan.
Oh..and Devasta0r.. you're a tool, let it go man. Being a Newfoundlander and having to deal with enough stereotyping as it is.. don't make it any worse than it has to be, you look like an idiot.

Personally I liked Nightmares Made Flesh more, not to take anything away from Resurection Through Carnage. Both albums were absolutely amazing. Some of the best death metal ever made. I fucking love this band.

Hell yes. Åkerfeldt is probably my favorite metal vocalist. His work on 'Resurrection' is perfect, in my opinion.

Bring back Swano! The songs that he wrote on their last album were by far my favorite. Anything he touches turns out amazing.
I'm not saying Bloodbath is no good now, I am very fucking excited for this new lineup... But I think things would be a lot better if Dan was still in the band.

Dan Swano is a legendary death metal musician. If it weren't for EOS and his influence, Opeth and Katatonia would sound staggeringly different than they both do today. One listen to Opeth's MAYH and Katatonia's Brave Murder Day are clear evidence of this. Swano's magnum opus Crimson is the benchmark by which all other "artsy" death metal is judged and without his musical intricacies in Bloodbath, they are just another gravel-throated angry-for-no-reason death metal band from "up there is the cold cities of Sweden".
No Swano? No $$$ from me. I'll wait for his answer to being kicked out of Bloodbath... which should come in the form of a far better, more complex and more challenging metal release (ie: Moontower).

Swano's a better fit for Bloodbath. Mikael should stick to Opeth. Bloodbath and Opeth are about equal, at least in terms of quality, in their respective genres. It's all pretty good shit.

YES!!! This is good news. Loved mikaels work with bloodbath, definitely my favorite death vocalist of all time. I mean, you can actually hear what hes saying unlike 99% of the other typical gore metal vocalists.
WAYS TO THE GRAVE!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and Devastat0r, leave while u can....before u get jumped by everyone. U talk to much

Go have another shot of Screech, and shut the fuck up - you fucking retard !
Bloodbath and Opeth both rule, and Akerfeld is the best death metal vocalist out there.
