European Tour postponed to March 2023

The tour in March 2023 has to be postponed to next year as there are still restrictions in some countries.

The band comments on this step with the following statement:
"We were looking forward to this tour for months! We were full of hope for things to change for better until the last minute" says the band. "We have been looking at the situation carefully during the last few weeks of course, though. We have been in contact with the promoters all the time. And we reached a point a week ago or so where we had to accept that the venues in some countries we're going to play are still looking at some restrictions. We've had to make the super hard decision to postpone the tour. To say this is a downer would be the understatement of the year! The good news is, we're happy to share that we have managed to keep the package what it is, and we are even more looking forward to hitting the road with our friends ARION, METALITE and VEONITY. Stay safe and we will see you in March 2023!"

All venues remain unchanged except for the dates in Switzerland and Belgium. The Swiss and the Belgian shows move to another town and venue each. Tickets already purchased remain valid for all shows except for the show in Switzerland.

Review of the new album - War Of Dragons

Strombringer.at releases the first review of the new Bloodbound album.

Because the review is written in German (or better Austrian :-), we have tried to translate once the whole document for you.

A New Era Begins

Short spoken Intro.

Battle In The Sky

This song brings full speed from the beginning on and starts with an epic chorus. Also in hereafter the tempo stays fast and our good old Patrik shows, why he is one of the best of his guild. Funny to see how Bloodbound combine her typical trademarks here a little with the style of her Swedish colleagues of Sabaton. "Battle In The Sky" is a more than only a worthy opener.

Tears Of A Dragonheart

Also the second track welcomes us at the beginning with a chorus which reminds a little bit of "Ghost of division". In my eyes it is really no crime, to orientate itself by other bands, to try something new and to maintain still the own style. Especially this is well succeed by the swedes in this song.

War Of Dragons

The title track sounds rather like the small (or, nevertheless, the big one?) brother of "Wishmaster". The parallels are unmistakable, however, it never looks stolen or willful badly made. It is very charmingly and shows Bloodbound in an very epic way, I have never recognized before.

Silver Wings

Its beginning is, compared with the other songs, slowly with a short flute intro, but then it goes on with hard double bass. In the following, the number still presents itself more pure and as a contrast program to the three songs before. "Silver Wings" reveals rather the kitschy and very classical side of power metal. However, its refrain is absolutely a catchy tune which kind of only the swedes can write.

Stand And Fight

You want the absolute hymn of the album? Here you have them! With this title headbanging is pre-programmed and the number should not disappoint you. The quiet hymnal inclined bridge offers a great change over to the brute chorus which beats down on the listener like quick punches. I would also like to emphasise, the orchestral arrangements which were put absolutely brilliantly in scene what applies in general for the whole album. This song would be allowed to leave live an effect like a colossal wrecking ball, because it bangs totally your brain away.

King Of Swords

With the beginning it seems to hear a song from Nightwish, then Rob Halford starts to scream into the microphone. At this point the listener does not know how he should stop his euphoria, in view of this huge load of power. With full speed this song blow us away, guitars full of speed and heavy keyboard sound will come over the listener. At the latest with the catchy formed refrain everybody knows, the song comes up easily to the top hits like "Moria" or "Iron Throne".The Swedes trump once more with a divine chorus, which might be harder to be expelled from the ear canals than an inflammation of the middle ear.

Fallen Heroes

The sound is bombastic, with right volume there roars the ground and the neighbours barricade themselves in view of this blast. The two great talented Olsson brothers at their battleaxes uses a numerous of technical delicacies in the successful compositions and belong with certainty to the best musicians in the melodic metal genre. In the middle section it seems the song could be written also from Avantasia, but in general the song could still be a musical continuation of "When The Kingdom Will Fall". A terrifically stamping monster with majestic choirs.

Guardians At Heavens Gate

A song in which the accelerator is completely stepped. At the beginning a bit unspectacular, develops this song in fact of his complicated arrangements and hardness still to a catchy tune which pulls the listener immensely in his spell.

Symphony Satana

The song breathes at times more Helloween spirit than the pumpkin heads since more than one decade itself did. To compare Bloodbound with other band like Hammerfall or Stratovarius is absolutely appropriated with this song. It is nice what incredibly high dynamism this song shows and binds the listener with its kind full of pressure completely to himself. Already after the first restrained tones no more eye remains dry. At the latest from the beginning of the refrain the fan of melodic power metal has thick tears of joy in the eyes. One of the highlights of the album.

Starfall

Whether you believe it or not, "Starfall " has at the beginning again a light Nightwish touch. As soon as the song starts, it goes again in the usual direction. The tempo is throttled a bit and gives some time for breathing deeply to the listener, before the final song powers out again full speed.

Dragons Are Forever

Fascinates by the heaviness and perfectly coordinated song harmonies, like songs from Avantasia or Masterplan, in addition a mighty, fantastic grooving. A banging hymn with an awesome refrain like we knew from Freedom Call with additional heavy double bass drums. A mighty song and a worthy end for this album.



Result

The album surprises not really, it justifies only the value which one has put away for men already in the approach. This time one has the feeling that of all one more corner has become better, more mature, more neatly, more bombastically and points harder. In addition an absolutely strong production, infers with ambitious songwriting which knows how to like, with a huge number of catchy hooks. All twelve songs are fresh, unused super hymns which every heart of a melodic lover makes be beating. Bloodbound have remained loyal to itself and have strictly followed up on the new album, in contrast to a lot of other bands in this category. They followed and perfected their way, and renounced unnecessary experiments.

Review of our first Bloodheads Fanclubmeating at Bäääm-Festival

First Bloodheads Fanclubmeating at Bäääm-Festival:
Perfect weather, perfect venue and awesome bands, nothing could be better for our first fanclub meeting!

The most of us arrived already on friday and had a really funny day with the swedish guys from Billion Dollar Babys at the campground and in front of the stage.
While our friends from bloodbound had their gig in Budapest with Wisdom we banged our heads to great metal with Bullet as headliner for the evening.

On saturday then the guys from Bloodbound should arrive at Cologne airport. Although the plane was late, they where in time for their gig at Bäääm! And it was an absolut fucking awesome one. Patrick tells the German metalheads his favorite german word: "Steckdosenleiste" - a new running gag was born :-)
After the show Bloodbound had an official signingsession for all metalheads and then it was time for the real fanclub meeting. All bloodheads got their eventpasses to join the meeting at a special area on the venue. And of course the band was with us!
Tomas, Fredrick, Anders, Patrick, Hendrik and Pelle took a lot of time to make fotos and sign everything we wanted.
But the highlight of all was, that we where the first people who got to hear a few parts of the upcoming album!!!
For that a really big thanks to Bloodbound for making that possible!!! That's not natural!

So let us say at the end:
The new album will be the best Bloodbound album you´ve ever heared and goosebumps are guaranteed !!! Be ready and buy it, when it will be released in autumn!

Cheers
The Bloodheads!

30.07.2014
