Bloodbath to release ‘Grand Morbid Funeral’ 10th anniversary edition

BLOODBATH’S ‘GRAND MORBID FUNERAL’ SPECIAL TENTH ANNIVERSARY EDITION PRESENTED ON LIMITED MARBLE VINYL, OUT 14TH JUNE 

THE FOURTH STUDIO ALBUM OF SUPREME DEATH METAL FROM SWEDEN’S MASTERS OF HORROR 

“Apart from being really sinister, cruel and dark, Grand Morbid Funeral was also the album that kicked Bloodbath into a higher gear. The hunger and determination behind it, made us go from a rather passive side/studio-project to a real active live band, for the first time.” – Blakkheim

WATCH THE ‘GRAND MORBID FUNERAL’ 10TH ANNIVERSARY TRAILER

Swedish death metal titans Bloodbath’s fourth studio album ‘Grand Morbid Funeral’ turns 10 this year. To mark the anniversary, Peaceville will be reissuing the album on limited edition silver/black marble-effect vinyl. Recorded at Ghost Ward Studios and the City of Glass Studios in Stockholm and mixed by David Castillo, ‘Grand Morbid Funeral’, was undoubtedly the band’s darkest and dirtiest opus upon its release in 2014; an organic collection of filth-ridden tracks straight from the grave, boldly eschewing the approach of somewhat over-produced modern death metal in favour of something altogether more rotten to the bone.

“When A class songwriting meets supreme death metal played by and for fans, don’t even try to resist”

8/10

METAL HAMMER 

“Bloodbath have perhaps never sounded quite so sinister as they hammer, bash, kick and spit at anyone getting too close to the aural war they declare from the outset

KERRANG

Formed in 1998 with a mutual fascination for horror & the glory days of death metal (especially the old Florida & Stockholm ‘Sunlight’ scenes), the band has remained a leading light of extreme metal since their ‘Breeding Death‘ EP was unleashed back in 2000, and a formidable force in the metal world for over twenty-five years, notable for the inclusion of KatatoniaOpeth and Paradise Lost members.

With doom-like melodies mixed with raw and savage riffing, and featuring a number of guest appearances including Chris Reifert and Eric Cutler from US gore-masters Autopsy, ‘Grand Morbid Funeral’ marked a new high-point of brutality for Bloodbath.
