I searched for 'Bloodbath'... but found nothing; so here be the place to express your thoughts on the Swedish Death Metal band.

To refresh memories;

Formed: 1999
Official Website: http://bloodbath.biz/
Releases:
- Breeding Death EP (2000)
- Resurrection through Carnage (2002)
- Nightmares Made Flesh (2004)

Now for my thoughts on the band...
They're god damn amazing. Line-ups have been great... sucks that they couldn't find a vocalist to suit their criteria though... Anyway, Bloodbath would have to be among my top 5 favourite bands.

Yeah it had like 3-4 good songs on it, the rest was just too bland. The first album had that sparse, minimalist rusty sound to it. After they polished and beefed it up it totally killed the awesome b-grade horror film feel that the first album had. yeah sorry about the "before". imo they just didn't want to make an album sounding the same with the previous.. so they did a totally different production.. but imo it is also a great album... ---- Υou've sold your human essence to the cold world of dead and empty things...

They did a totally different production from their previous album, but not from other death metal bands, I would have preferred another Resurrection Through Carnage, keep in mind Bloodbath is simply a side project for all the other members, and you can really tell they were almost a tribute band to old school swedish death metal. ---- "I got a lot of really good ideas, problem is, most of them suck." - George Carlin Loading...

They are not bad albums, they are just nothing.. easily forgettable. I dont care if Åkerfeldt and Blakkheim are part in this project, the only thing certain is that they screw up in their last two attenpts. ---- ---- member of the true crusade against old school heavy metal, early 80s thrash, NWOBHM, traditional doom, first and second wave black metal, old school death metal, US power metal, 70s prog rock and atmospheric doomsludgestoner. o/ Loading...

!J.O.O.E.! Account deleted	Permalink 11.06.2010 - 18:20 !J.O.O.E.! Account deleted Bloodbath definitely peaked with Breeding Death. Their subsequent stuff never reached that height but the Fathomless Mastery was a pretty cool mixture of Nile and Hypocrisy if I remember rightly. Loading...

I don't like Peter's voice that much so that's why I never really cared too much of the second album and when Mikael was the singer again... the music went downhill. ---- Written by BloodTears on 19.08.2011 at 18:29 Like you could kiss my ass Written by Milena on 20.06.2012 at 10:49 Rod, let me love you.

I was referring more to RTC, it had a very sparse feel to it, in relativity to the later albums. Up to and including RTC there was a pretty simple approach to it which I think is what is missing in a lot of death metal, everyones trying to be more brutal, or more technical, or heavier production. Resurrection was just buzzsaw riffs with minimalist production. Had a unique feel to it. ---- "I got a lot of really good ideas, problem is, most of them suck." - George Carlin Loading...
