Apparently There’s A New Bloodbath DVD Out Today?!

Apr.25, 2011

Bloodbath should need no introduction, but for the sake of avoiding exclusion, they’re a death metal supergroup of sorts featuring members of Katatonia and Opeth. The band played the rare live show in August 2010 at Bloodstock, which has now made its way to DVD via Peaceville Records.

Noisecreep is hosting a clip from the DVD featuring the song “Eaten.” It’s kinda weird seeing Mikael Akerfeldt being a frontman without a guitar, but there he is!

Check out Bloodbath over Bloodstock if this sounds like your cup of tea. It should be, but I won’t press the issue.

Free Music: Benighted Iris Demo EP

Filed Under: Audio, Downloads, Hits From The Inbox

Aug.20, 2010

Swedish death metallers Benighted Iris just released their demo EP for free. While the production quality leaves a lot to be desired, the quality of the music itself is pretty good. With proper studio time, these guys would sound killer. Their music sounds like a cross between Swedish death metal and groovy djent without being deathcore, citing influences such as Bloodbath, Gojira, and Sikth. Benighted Iris are worth keeping tabs on if you’re into the Swedish metal scene, but like I said, you’ll have to look over some of this production.

You can listen to their song “Sleep of Reason” below and download the whole EP right here.
