Biography
Biography
Bloodstain is a Swedish thrash metal band formed in late 2023.
Early years (2023-2025)
Four classmates at Rytmus music high school in Stockholm formed Bloodstain in fall of 2023 to compete in the local music competition Lidingö Rock. The band finished second, and received the award for best guitarist.
In March 2024, Bloodstain released their debut EP, I Am Death. The EP has been praised by critics, and set the stage for future releases. This first release led to the band's appearance on The Rising Four, a Swedish Metal tour with Eradikated, Eternal Evil, Sarcator and Bloodstain. Shortly after that, they signed a management and production deal with Alex Hellid from Entombed and Threeman Recordings.
Debut album (2025-)
Bloodstain toured Sweden together with Dark Tranquility and Múr in October 2025, and has appeared at festivals such as Downtown Riot and Sweden Rock. Alongside performing various concerts around Sweden, Bloodstain haved played at Hellfest 2026 and at Time to Rock 2026.
The band released their debut album, "Bloodstain", on the Swedish record label Threeman Recordings and by extension on Candlelight Records on 25 September, 2026.
