REV 16:8 Stream New Songs With New Vocalist
May 28, 2008, 16 years ago
Sweden's REV 16:8 (formerly known as BLOODSHED) have updated their MySpace page to stream two new tracks featuring new vocalist Themgoroth (ex-DARK FUNERAL, INFERNAL). Check out the songs 'Sole Crow's Carrier' and 'In Wait' at this location.
The band previously issued the following statement:
"The change is a natural step and is based on several reasons.The return of the original guitarist Nefastus gave the band the edge it had lost. With new strength and new killer material, it's obvious that there's no one out there that could ever do his job better. Since the arrival of Pata the drumming has given the creative process the freedom it needs, without boundaries. It has and is continuously contributing to raising the music to a new level. The musical skills and the song writing of guitarist Talon challenges the mainstream and will always push the envelope in the bands material evolvement. The visual artist and lyrical mastermind Ill with his bass lines makes the band grow several steps further. To sum it up, the current line-up of musicians is the best this band has ever seen.
The name Bloodshed has been and is being used by several groups. Continuing the use of the old name wouldn't give the band any justice. It would merely reflect an affiliation to the general mediocracy. Rev 16:8 stands above the masses, it's something unique that isn't to be associated with the rest of the sheep. The new monicker marks the beginning of a new era in the band's history, and we gaze upon the future with great expectation."
