Is Bloodbath Minus Swano Still A Force?

[Overlord Purple Rainbow]

Is this version of Bloodbath still kicking @$$ and taking names like the previous days of Dan Swano?

Is this new album going to sustain their legacy?

 

[Scavneck]

This album is very good, my fav. album of the year.

If this album was the 1st one it would make names much more easily.

Blakkheim And Renkse made all my most fav. songs so far, so Swano might be a genius, and I'm sure Bloodbath would gain great songs with him if he came back, but I'm not thinking about it anymore.

 

[Overlord Purple Rainbow]

So it's still great stuff?

This is great to hear...I would like to hear the new album....

 

[CadenZ]

Bloodbath with Swanö was great, and Bloodbath without Swanö is great as well! A little more brutal nowadays.

 

[Scavneck]

Yeah man, and it was a grower for me, now it's actually overgrowing, it's not letting me listen to new stuff I want to hear haha.

Like CadenZ said, it is a bit more brutal now, but they've added some nice melodic solos to it too, and some epic song endings, the album cover is awesome too.

 

[Overlord Purple Rainbow]

This is VERY good!

 

[Bathing in Blood]

This is VERY good!

Yes, yes it is.

 

[Flal]

Both good but with different stylez

Copied from my reply on Swanö forum:

Will always miss Dan's influence, his stuff is so good.

Bloodbath is still an A+ death metal band that I support, but they are just not the same as they once were. To some they're better, to others they are worse, but it's all a matter of taste for the style of death metal you like.

In my opinion they are becoming better with each release and TFM all but breaks that curve, best death metal album in several years, absolutely awesome.

So to answer the question, hell fucking yeah they're still a force, more than ever I would say.

I would have made the choice myself before asking the forum.....you're getting a pretty biased response

 

[DarkGift]

actually, i think they're better now ^^ at least, i like the new stuff more

 

[stefan86]

UTP and RTC are my favourite releases, so I guess Swanö doesn't have that big of an impact. The new is kinda meh in places, but definitely good

 

[DarkGift]

^UTP is definately the best release

 

[stefan86]

yeah.. Mouth of Empty Praise and Weak Aside still makes me all fluffy inside

 

[DarkGift]

ANTI-CHRIST! RISE BEFORE US!

 

[stefan86]

That one ain't bad either

 

[Ozzloaf]

I like UTP and TFM better than NMF and RTC.

 

[Scavneck]

And I like TMGAS better than TEAIF

 

[MadTinus]

I like UTP and TFM better than NMF and RTC.
