Blutgott’s Legions Of Metal

If you’re after dark fantasy heavy metal music shorn of political or socio-critical messages, then Germany’s Blutgott is most likely what you’re searching for.

Out now, Blutgott’s latest single, ‘Animal Protector‘, taken from the 10th October due Legions Of Metal albums via the Metalvile Records label – Three bloody discs of old-school heavy metal and hard rock, recorded by Dennis Ward (Unisonic, Krokus, Helloween).

CD1 features a full mix of Blutgott madness, plus some absolute legends joining the ride: Tim ‘Ripper’ Owens – former singer of Judas Priest, and Michelle Darkness – the voice of End Of Green. CD2 is classic heavy metal and hard rock, like AC/DC getting into a bar brawl with Accept – and everyone wins. CD3 is a version with the Debauchery monster voice. Death metal growls that sound like a demon gargling lava.

Having been around some 20 Years making music about monsters and metal, they’re somewhere in between Judas Priest, Slayer, AC/DC, Rammstein and Bolt Thrower. They’ve made 20 albums with over 40 CDs.

The lyrics are about the own dark fantasy world, the World of Blood Gods. And blood gods are brutal demonic vampire dragons.

There are also miniatures, a tabletop wargame, books and artworks and concerts of the various incarnations of the Blutgott metal universe have been held throughout Europe, Russia and Asia. The draconic Blutgott monsters were on tour with Doro, Saxon, Dismember, Napalm Death, Destruction and many other legends from the metal scene and played at major festivals such as Wacken, Summer Breeze and Bang Your Head and their  albums are regularly in the top 50 of the official German album charts.

The main man behind Blutgott is singer and guitarist, creator of artworks and monsters, author of the World Of Blood Gods: Thomas Gurrath. The guy who gave up his job as teacher to become a full time metal artist.
