THE FOURTH STUDIO ALBUM OF SUPREME DEATH METAL FROM SWEDEN'S MASTERS OF HORROR SPECIAL TENTH ANNIVERSARY RELEASE PRESENTED ON LIMITED MARBLE VINYL.

Bloodbath is a titan of death metal from Stockholm, Sweden, notable for the inclusion of Katatonia, Opeth & Paradise Lost members. 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 & a formidable force in the metal world for over twenty-fve years.

Recorded at Ghost Ward Studios & the City of Glass Studios in Stockholm & mixed by David Castillo, 'Grand Morbid Funeral', Bloodbath's fourth full- length studio release, was undoubtedly the band's darkest & dirtiest opus upon its release in 2014; an organic collection of flth- ridden tracks straight from the grave, boldly eschewing the approach of somewhat over-produced modern death metal in favour of something altogether rottener to the bone. With doom-like melodies mixed with raw & savage rifng & featuring a number of guest appearances including Chris Reifert & Eric Cutler from US gore- masters Autopsy, 'Grand Morbid Funeral' marked a new high- point of brutality for Bloodbath.

Blakkheim (guitars): "We're proud of all these different styled releases & we loved doing each & every one of them, but the objective was never to settle with a certain style, so the time has come to shift once more. It was already decided right after the last album that the next record would not be a "Fathomless part 2", but it would actually become its antithesis! So, prepare yourselves for an ultimate blueprint of low-f, raw, heavy, organic & sludgy death metal sound! The time has come to stomp those HM-2 pedals once more & close the circle of the death metal archives with our Grand Morbid Funeral."

This limited edition of 'Grand Morbid Funeral' marks the album's tenth anniversary & is presented on limited silver/ black marble- effect vinyl, with printed inner sleeve.
