Bloedmaan, the solo project by the infamous Rönarg has returned with its second full length album «Vampyric War in Blood» after only 2 years since the debut album “Castle Inside the Eclipse” which was released in December 2023. As the title of the new record reveals will Rönarg take you on a deeper journey with Bloedmaan into the realms of Vampirism entangled with raw obscure melodic black metal tunes.
The record opens with a haunting, illustrious play on the keyboards that instantly sets a dark atmosphere, (think of the old 80’s thrillers that strapped you into your seat at that start of the movie) together with a sharp guitar the mood is definitely set for what will become a trance of Transylvanian fury!
After the fading intro, all hell breaks loose with utter rage and a furious sound of melodies that pour out the lead guitar supported by the heavy bass tones and the pounding blast beats, knows Rönarg how to fill the air with his shrieking vocals which sounds like Dracula has awoken from a long slumbering sleep. Song after song, Bloedmaan knows how to capture the attention of the listeners once more by unleashing mind tangling riff after riff in a raw old school sounding production almost similar to the first album, yet advanced with more power.
Bloedmaan has once again delivered a masterpiece of a record, a great follow up to the unbelievable nearly perfect debut full length album. An album filled with melodies, dancing bass tones, destructive drums and tormented vocals! By far, Vampyric Melodic Black Metal at its finest!
