BLOODBATH (S)
Sodomizer
Bloodbath are an extreme metal supergroup from Sweden which spread pure quality death metal destruction. Featuring such names as Anders Nyström, Jonas Renske (Katatonia) and Mikael Akerfeldt (Opeth) returns with the next chapter of this brutal saga, The Fathomless Mastery.
Formed in 1998 with a mutual fascination for the glory days of death metal, the band's line up has changed and evolved throughout the years, featuring the elite of Swedish metal.
Hints of what the album may posses were provided by Unblessing The Purity, the mini-album released earlier this year on Peaceville Records. Described by Metal Hammer as 'a near-flawless celebration of Swedish brutality' and by Zero Tolerance as 'a slab of storming, top-quality death metal', the mini-album has set bar high.

'Unblessing The Purity' also features the return of Opeth's Mikael Akerfeldt on vocal duties and arrival of Per 'Sodomizer' Eriksson (ex-21 Lucifers, ex-Genocrush Ferox) on guitar, joining Katatonia's Anders Nyström and Jonas Renkse and Martin 'Axe' Axenrot, also from Opeth.
This line-up has once again reunited for The Fanthomless Mastery which they have described as representing 'nothing but hateful brutality.' Promising their 'most crushing production yet' few would dare to argue the band's claim that... 'Bloodbath is here to slay, Bloodbath is here to stay!'

"Now this is what I call a guitar! I’ve been through tons of guitars over the years, but now I’ve finally found one that fits my personality and playing style 100%. The sickest part about this guitar is that it sounds even better than it looks, and that says a lot. This guitar is rock solid! If it wasn’t for the possibility of a string breaking, I wouldn't even bother to bring a backup."
The Fanthomless Mastery will obscure the light of the Sun on 6th October. Be ready as there will be no mercy for the weak...
