Biography  
 

Bursting  on  to  the  London  scene  in  2007,  Bloodloss  have  been  determined  to  bring  metal  back  to  
it’s   raw   basics   that   we   all   love   so   much.   Combining   bruising   breakdowns   and   hook-­‐laden  
choruses  influenced  by  the  likes  of  Unearth  and  As  I  Lay  Dying;  Bloodloss's  neck  breaking  aural  
assault  simultaneously  draws  influence  from  the  grooves  and  raw  attitude  of  early  Machine  Head  
and   Pantera.   Having   already   racked   up   some   impressive   high   profile   shows   including   dates   with  
TRC,  Romeo  Must  Die,  Exit  Ten,  Breed  77  and  Ill  Nino,  they  are  set  to  destroy  the  UK  metal  scene  
in  2012  with  their  crushing  debut  mini  album  ‘The  Struggle’.

“This  is  a  colossal  first  effort.  It’s  very  re-­‐assuring  to  know  that  if  Machine  Head  ever  feel  like  
hanging  up  their  instruments,  Bloodloss  are  here  to  fill  that  huge  void.”  4/5

brilliant  musicianship  and  awesome  songs.”  8/10

stages  higher  and  higher  up  the  bill  in  no  time  at  all.”  9/10  

 
Metal  Junkie  
 

“This  is  metalcore  at  its  finest,  each  song  brings  something  fresh  to  the  table,  and  they  all  had  the  
relentless  energy  that  would  make  them  a  live  behemoth.”  8/10    

 
Bigger  Than  Satan  
 

“’The  Struggle’  is  simply  already  one  of  the  best  and  most  impressive  releases  from  not  only  a  
new  band  but  of  any  albums  of  EPs  already  on  the  Market.”  

 
Neil  Mach  
 

“Bloodloss  live  was  a  mesmerizing  and  absolutely  exhilarating  experience  and  I  thoroughly  
recommend  this  act  to  any  metal  fan.”  

 
Issue  Punkzine  
 

“Delicious  riffs,  throbbing  bass  and  hypnotic  beats  mesh  perfectly  with  the  vocals,  at  times  
brutal,  at  times  verging  on  melodic.”
