Swedish death metal supergroup BLOODBATH have issued the following update:

“So the time has come for BLOODBATH to once again poison the scene with a contagious doze of über brutal death metal. An old acquaintance in this zombified bloodline has once again re-visited his old home. We can now announce that the vocalist on the new mini-CD is none other than Mikael Åkerfeldt courtesy of OPETH.

Second deathster to join the elite is Mr. Per ‘Sodomizer’ Eriksson (ex-21 LUCIFERS, ex-GENOCRUSH FEROX). Sodomizer’s brutal death metal songwriting approach as well as guitar shredding is a highly welcomed element in the legacy of BLOODBATH.”

BLOODBATH 2008 is:

Mikael Åkerfeldt - Vocals
Anders “Blakkheim” Nyström - Guitar
Per “Sodomizer” Eriksson - Guitar
Jonas Renkse - Bass
Martin “Axe” Axenrot ? Drums
