Finland’s BLOODY HELL‘s new album “The Bloodening” hit the mosh pit this past April via Rockshots Records. In support of the record, the band is presenting a new music video for the banger “Midnight Man”. The track tells a story of a man with issues (which any one person can relate to). This was originally one of the first songs the band wrote and it’s simply a straight-up speedster of headbanging glory.

Formed to cause confusion and fear in people who don’t understand what heavy metal is about, Helsinki, Finland’s BLOODY HELL (ft. members of Moottörin Jyrinä, Metal De Facto) have been wowing fans around the globe with their loud, unapologetic, speed demon tyranny for two decades. Known for their drunken wild shows, the band has always presented good times in the circle pit with anthems about drinking, hangovers, devil-worshipping among other important matters.

Taking a hiatus after releasing two EPs, Hangover Riders (2010), What The Hell (2003) and a self-titled album (2015), along with all members focusing to perform with their other project Moottörin Jyrinä (a children’s heavy metal band that plays cover songs from classic 1980s heavy metal songs with child-friendly Finnish language lyrics with an educational tone), the quartet returns in 2021 to continue the party as grumpy old men with strong 18-year-old angst. Their new album “The Bloodening” features 12 fist-pumping songs to kick the band’s new found momentum into overdrive.

For fans of old-school 80’s metal in the vein of Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Accept, and Helloween, Bloody Hell‘s “The Bloodening” is available at the following links:

“Bloody Hell plays classic, keep-it-true, heavy metal… Most of their tunes are riff revved up, fast and heavy, metal tunes with assertive, yet harmonious, vocals, and an abundance of killer guitar solos. Listeners will hear this formula self-evident and repeated throughout the album with notable songs: The Undertaker, What The Hell, Bite, the drum driven fast and heavy Burn Witch Burn. 4/5” – Dangerdog Music Reviews

“Clearly having a blast, Bloody Hell want you to have a blast as well and to help make that a reality, they’re dropping a 12-track album of good time heavy head-bangers. Classic heavy metal with thrash and speed sensibilities, The Bloodening is an album filled with energy, dirty groove and thumping heaviness.” – Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life

“For everyone who loves good old classic heavy metal, the new record by BLOODY HELL is perfect.” – Metal.de

“BLOODY HELL are sure to ensure a good time for the pandemic-isolated Metaler” – Stormbringer

“The Bloodening is definitely something perfect to blast, whether the pandemic is ruling everyone’s life or not. It is also a great excuse to enjoy some rum or bourbon when it cannot be done in a company – because drinking to Metal, even by oneself, is not drinking, it is keeping oneself alive.” – Metal Express Radio

“Bloody Hell have struck a solid formula for the creation and delivery of their brand of heavy metal. Keeping it simple in terms of sonic display and lyrical content. Incorporating themes and techniques of their influences while ensuring their own stamp is prominent… it does put a massive grin on your face. When all is said and done, isn’t that the point of metal.” – Uber Rock

“Twelve songs in this new album opened by anthemic groovy metal of HANGOVER RIDER, enriched by an embracing riffing, and FACE IN HELL, with its metallized heavy rock.” – Hard Rock Heavy Metal

About:
Bloody Hell was formed in the year 2000. Jaakko Halttunen and Marko Skou formed the band to cause confusion and fear in people who don’t understand what heavy metal is about. The band is all about playing heavy metal the way it was meant to be, which is loud, unapologetic, and obnoxious. Lyrical themes revolve around drinking, hangover, the devil, and other important matters.

Bloody Hell has released one full-length album before and toured around Finland and Russia. The band is known for their drunken wild shows where you can expect loud heavy metal music and a pretty decent show also.

Even though the band has been on hiatus sometimes it has always returned. In the past times, it was because angry young men wanted to play angry music. Now it’s grumpy old men wanting to play grumpy music. Now with the new release, the band is again delivering its trademark fashion-free, bullshit-free Heavy Metal music for the fans who enjoy Heavy Metal.

The members of Bloody Hell also all perform in Moottörin Jyrinä (a children’s heavy metal band that plays cover songs from classic 1980s heavy metal songs with child-friendly Finnish language lyrics with an educational tone). Guitarist Esa Orjatsalo and drummer Atte Marttinen play in the mighty Metal De Facto.

Band co-founder and guitarist Jaakko Halttunen comments on the single:

“What do you do when someone does something wrong or somebody suspects that someone has done something wrong? Even without evidence? You’ll of course shout: BURN THE WITCH, BURN THE WITCH!!!! This Song is about the darker side of social media and the yellow press. It’s a killer song indeed!”

Montreal, QC – March 25, 2020

For fans of Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Motley Crue, Armored Saint, Def Leppard

Tzimani Streaming Self-Titled EP, Set For Reissue March 27th On Bonita Steel Records

+ Vinyl Out In July via Diabolic Might Records

Tzimani, a duo comprised of the Vazquez brothers, whose sound is part the burgeoning revival of the new wave of American heavy metal, were supposed to be on the road this March and April across the USA and Canada for a twenty-seven date tour in support of their reissued debut self-titled EP on Bonita Steel Records and Diabolic Might Records for vinyl. But like many other bands in the metal community, they were forced to postpone all their dates due to the Covid 19 pandemic affecting the world.

The heavy metal brothers bring forth twin guitar leads, melodic solos, catchy choruses and a sharp, but raspy vocal technique that make you feel like your right in the middle of the 1980s heavy metal explosion. They echo the sounds of legends such as Guns N’ Roses, Mötley Crüe, Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. On their last few runs, Tzimani has shared the stage with national and international touring acts such as Huntress, Scarlet Canary, Final Drive, Joan Ov Arc, Scattered Hamlet, Bewitcher, Mothership, Truck Fighters, and more.

Before the reissued EP officially drops on March 27th, the duo have teamed up with Metal-Rules.com for its exclusive full stream below. The EP also features covers of Dio’s ‘Night People’ and W.A.S.P.’s ‘Doctor Rockter’ along with tracks from their 2017 demo.

Listen to the full stream of Tzimani via Metal-Rules.com HERE.

“Despite sparking synapses associated with a variety of high-octane hard rock and metal birthed in the days of yore, this self titled debut EP genuinely feels fresh-faced. Pull on your leather, put the pedal to the metal, and smell the gasoline …” – Sleeping Village Reviews

“One of the best bands to come out of the San Diego area and another great signing by Metal Assault Management. These tracks fill you with that 70s-80s Heavy Metal you love and need in your life, but it’s updated just enough to give their own flavoring. What makes this even better is that this band is two brothers, Eddie and Sebastian Vazquez. It’s great to see family that gets together for the power of metal. They are going to go far if they are capable of this so early in their career.” – That Drummer Guy

“Considering the relative short time together as Tzimani, it’s easy to gauge the band’s great instincts when it comes to songwriting, performance, and execution. They have all the tools to get the beer flowing and the fists flying high, and that’s the name of the game to building an audience in the metal landscape.” – Dead Rhetoric

“The song [Overdrive] is a thrashing speed demon of a hit, only ever slowing down to release a soaring refrain with a powerful vocal delivery. The guitars are downright filthy in their approach, ripping through solos and arpeggios with ease, not to mention the blistering pace of the verse riff.” – New Noise Magazine

“This was only an EP, can you imagine how their full length will be like? This nice little teaser will have your speed demon wanting more.” – Ugh Metal
