Interesting Bloodbath news.

[Edgecrusher]

I was checking out the BNR metal pages and reading the update for the Bloodbath page when I found out the bad news: Mikael Akerfeldt has been replaced

*insert pause for fans to weep*

But there's also some good news! He's been replaced with producer/Hypocrisy frontman Peter Tagtgren!

Also Dan Swano will now be a 2nd guitarist and Martin Axenrot (Witchery) will now take up the drums.

Now THIS will be interesting to hear.

*yawn*

old news

 

[Flaming Death]

I just found out the news today or maybe yesterday. I think Peter will do an excellent job.

 

[Spirit In Black]

I think Peter will do an excellent job.

I agree.....I am also glad to see someone else drumming, that was one of their major flaws IMO

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Swano isn't a great drummer, really. Or maybe he's held back/is holding back.

 

[MetalHeadMarc]

ah man, I'm gonna miss Mike's vocals, He has one of the most brutal death metal growls around.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Mikael sucked in that band.

Peter's my favorite vocalist. This is great news indeed.

I hope the album can stand up to Resurrection Through Carnage.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

"Resurrection Through Carnage" doesn't even have real drumming for the most part, he recorded single hits and pasted them together with a computer to achieve better blastbeats or some such nonsense...

Wow, really? That's the stupidest shit ever.

That's like using a drum machine, but worse.

 

[MightyDrynwhyl]

so does peter have a better growl than mikael? or is bloodbath going to suck because of him?

 

[Post_Scriptum]

I'm interested to see the result. Oh and I didn't like the drumming on RTC either.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Peter's latest stuff has been lacking.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

I knew there was something off about RTC's drumming...

Who'll drum for Witchery now?

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Nick Barker's always available.

 

[Episteme]

Dan Swano...is not the best drummer in the world and thank god they replaced him. He wasn't even very good in Moontower(although the rest of the music was awesome)...Either way I can't wait for this one. I don't really like Pete Tagtren's vocals but I bet it's still going to sound sweet.

 

[Flaming Death]

I think the new blodbath will be incredible and different. I think Swano said himself they were going for an old school US death metal sound on the new album. Peter should do nicely and with Dan moving to guitar, I am hoping for a great album.
