Bloodbath - Live @ PartySan 2008

[@kyleroliver2143]

Akerfeldt is undoubtedly the best death metal vocalist. Bloodbath really made his growls shine.

[@IloveRillettes]

I agree that Akerfeldt is incredibly talented but in terms of pure death metal, I think that Julian Truchant (from Benighted) outranks any singer.

[@mikegladstone8834]

Absolutely especially with Swano... two of the best

[@ristuksenvittu]

@@mikegladstone8834 Swanö, a great guitarist, a decent drummer, an amazing singer, GODLIKE composer, lyricist, producer. What can i say? If someone said dan can do a 900 on a skateboard, i'd not be too surprised if he really could, ok maybe he can not do that but he has some serious talents in the musical world.

[@connorpixley4835]

he's definitely one of the best, I always loved him and Frank Mullen the most of any vocalist in the industry.

The Best bloodbath Line Up!!!

[@maximumnoize]

This Gig should have been the Main Feature of the DVD instead of the Bloodstock Gig. This should have been released in full for us fans to enjoy. Let's be honest, this Gig is way better than the Bloodstock Gig.

[@TheRumbles13]

Agreed

[@DentApSten]

Gil Brian Fuentes Better sounding - yes.

[@eden2esthar]

Yep agreed as well

[@CaveiraDeathMetal]

you are right man! how many songs have this gig party san ? only 4 ?

[@rodrigodias2991]

Com certeza!!!

old bloodbath rules

[@VulgrimOfficial]

Every bloodbath rules!

[@jeremyhassell7911]

All Bloodbath rules! Hail

[@mattirealm]

Yep, old Bloodbath, first three albums...................are easily my favorites of the bands. Forgot to add, their first FIVE efforts, as I do really enjoy the 2 EP's as well \m/

[@helltokitty8720]

"Bathe in Blood" is one of my all-time favourite old-school death metal songs. The show was great. I've been there \m/

[@jpnw6577]

What I wouldn't do to go see this lineup play live today.

[@carlosneves3]

This gig made me see Blasting the Virginborn for the monster hit it really is, that inicial riff and solo are fire!

[@T666Berlin]

I was there and directly after Bloodbath Bolt Thrower performed on the same stage. That was the best death metal double feature ever!

[@grunerkaktus]

wtf how come i never noticed that vid earlier? im a huge bloodbath fan. this deserves so much more views, awesome quality.

[@billyg1186]

mike sounds good here

[@Alexku90]

I was there as an 18 year old boy. Bolt Thrower were on right after Bloodbath. Been to this festival every time since then. ❤

[@0DesertEagle0]

Is it really that hard to keep the camera on the guitars during the solo segments? Please....

[@ArnLedesma]

I wish his growl will come back again😅😅😅🥹🥹🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘this is perfect 😊

[@UncleLucy666]

You were saying something, bro? 😝

[@DrOxTaGoN]

GOAT Bloodbath \m/

[@PERPowns]

some people don't really like this guitar tone. i however, am infatuated with it! HM-2?

[@brianflannery8415]

Definitely HM-2.

[@ArcticChonk]

HM2 into lead/distortion channel on the amp!

[@mstrasser]

Awesome. And yes, better than the Bloodstock set.

[@francosalazar92]

Because of his voice

[@dorianl7294]

Death Metal shouldn't be played in broad daylight. Nor should Black Metal. Like Wacken putting Emperor on at 3 in the afternoon in 2014. Great set, no doubt, but it loses some of the magic without the darkness.

[@Patrick_Edwards]

@@dorianl7294 I agree with you but not everyone can play during the dark on Open Air Concerts, sadly

[@korvegott]

Swedish Death Metal sound comes from the Boss Hm-2 with maxed settings @imhuge

[@destined_to_die6668]

Never delete this please

[@andresvivas2814]

Though Mikael here is on his point, you can hear there's something a little bit different on his vocals when you compare them with his previous years... Whaterever it was that fucked up his growls, it was already emerging in those days...

[@a_fuckin_spacemarine7514]

He used too much throat. I know cause I do the same thing, but unlike Michael, it's pretty natural for me, I can do it for hours at time, day in/out.

[@AbbyTheAbinator]

@@a_fuckin_spacemarine7514 that's what she said \m/

[@a_fuckin_spacemarine7514]

@@AbbyTheAbinator About time someone sees that!

[@alessa_cybergoth]

​​@@a_fuckin_spacemarine7514Mikael didn't take care of his voice (drinking, smoking and not practicing). And he lost his growl not because he was not "naturally" good at it.

[@ArcticChonk]

It takes minute changes to the vocal chords to mess up a vocalist, sometimes you just lose the ability as you age. The problem for him nowadays is that the voice doesn't crack up properly so you can hear the regular voice bleeding through too much. His high's are still great though!

[@DannielCristie]

Happy birthday Mikael!

[@gråsscandy77]

It's definitely better in this performance than in some of the other live vids on youtube

[@davidvincent9545]

This is fkn good quality constructive death metalllllll..

[@phillipthienger7647]

This is so sick, such a stellar band

[@DarthSivius]

dat scream 11:35

[@mickeymojito]

So weird seeing Akerfeldt without a guitar

[@donovanstrain8995]

That bass drop kills me everytime at 10:22.

[@mupicap7927]

Really SICK

[@danishmaggot]

This is funny. Akerfeldt looks awkward with no guitar and Renkse looks awkward with an instrument! Good stuff though.

[@acdccris]

danishmaggot xD

[@horseliver338]

he is the danishmaggot

[@saturn5087]

You can tell he doesn’t really know how to move around without a guitar

[@blppt]

Jonas plays a lot on the Kat albums, but you're right---it doesn't look like he's ever played live in his life, lol.

[@unblessingthepurity6163]

Holy shit is bathe in blood performance!

[@gråsscandy77]

🔥

[@guillotheworstnightmare1863]

Peer is flawless... But Jonas and Anders are the main mans behind Blodobath. (and yes, Axenrot is a fucking beast)

[@leifgwpersson9176]

They are both awesome

[@FuRY55001337]

fuckin' awesome ! better than the Bloodbath Over Bloodstock live where mikael's voice is really gone...

[@AnnihilationOfGod]

Watch Live at Wacken, you will see more headbanging there.

[@mikegladstone8834]

That 2005 show fuckin smokes

[@aymanlafaz]

something weird happened to mikael's vocals between 2008 and 2010

[@raz0rcarich99]

He said in an interview that there was one concert where there audio monitors weren't working properly so he couldn't hear himself which made him strain his vocal chords.

[@es5679]

Go listen to Sabaton, you nationalist simpleton. Racism doesn't belong here.

[@mattirealm]

WTF happened to this Akerfeldt? Just listen to a couple years later, live Bloodbath. OMG he really busted his voice sometime during the later 2000's. Sounds great here, but not after this point; this point being the Watershed/The Fathomless Mastery era. Check out the video where Bloodbath does 2 songs on the last day of the Heritage tour (2011) and it just sounds bad. This sounds good, but earlier sounds better. Edit: I have a theory. I think he just did too much in the 2007/2008 period. Think about it....he did Unblessing the Purity, The Fathomless Mastery and of course Opeth's Watershed all in this time period. That is a lot of heavy vocal work and could have overstrained his voice....sadly.

[@midnightcreatur3]

Plus, to all of that, someone in the comments says that mikael said in an interview that he hurt his throat in a specific concert. Search it.

[@coltanwilliams2484]

Age is a bitch as well.

[@grindingvomitreflux]

Nobody in Bloodbath looked more dead ever than this guy. Per "Sodomizer" Eriksson 1:04

[@MeekToaster]

Bathe in Blood

[@PERPowns]

Haha! Where do I get one? Seems like that'd be hard to come across :D

[@davisius1]

Sanna ord Leif

[@omer-sela-rothenberg]

I love Mikael but the man just doesn't know how to headbang lol

[@PhantonAntichrist]

Omer Sela. Maybe just too many drugs, dude. Check out his performance with Bloodbath in The Wacken Carnage (2005) and you will see him headbanging like fucking Corpsegrinder!

[@allenvrabac4827]

Åkerfeldt isn't a drug kind of guy. He stopped headbanging around this time cause he felt something go off in his neck and got scared.

[@justinmcintire1236]

his growls sound better here then they do in opeth i find that odd

[@eden2esthar]

maybe cuz he has more mobility and room for concentration as opposed to being in opeth pulling double duty as vocalist and guitarist. ....either way he's got growls in the bag with bloodbath and opeth

[@MickeeKarlsson]

I FUCKING HATE THAT THIS BAND IS A SIDE PROJET, AND ON THAT, MIKAEL ÅKERFELDT LEFT, THAT'S NOT OK. AND NOW THAT THEY ARE A SIDE PROJECT (Can't understand because it's the best Death Metal ever) THEY NEVER PLAY LIVE. I hate them for that seriously.

[@PhantonAntichrist]

MickeeKarlsson. I agree they are better than many other bands that just could never even imagine to achieve this awesomeness! And the most unbelievable thing is that as you say this is not the principal band of none of them, they just do it for the love of the game! Sick!
