EP Review: Bloodbath "Survival of the Sickest" (Napalm Records) by Daniel Ryan

Band: Bloodbath

Country: Sweden

Genre: Death metal

EP: Survival of the Sickest

Format: Digital

Label: Napalm Records

Release date: September 9, 2022

This band I been listening to for some time has changed dramatically over the years still puts out killer OSDM with frontman Nick Holmes and company. Production wise very solid album with many riffs to keep you entertained. The flow of the album is changing track to track and gives you a sense of dread throughout. It offers a brand new take on Bloodbath of old but still sticks to its roots. The nightmarish sounds of this band are pulverizing and soul wrenching. For fans of Morbid Angel, Obituary and Death these guys are the kings of old school death metal through and through. I have to say that Zombie Inferno is my favorite track of the bunch. Deadly and vicious this band will not be overlooked. Check them out! –Daniel Ryan
