Thousand years old vampires have old blood inside of them and what chanced human to vampire is called "ALTERBLOOD" the disorder of blood
Early in 2000 begins glorious history of Alterblood. 3 guys ( Nocu Delacroix, Sindread Wahrheit and Sir Whitewolf ) started band called The Reaper Guild and played melodic dark metal.
Many years passed and 2004-2005 band had short time new member called J who played Alterbloods keyboard parts, but after short time band decided that J didin't fit in their new style, which had chanced a lot and was closer to gothic industrial metal with little rock sound in it. In this time band chanced it's name to Alterblood. Later 2005 band had break over year, because singer, Nocu moved from Outokumpu and Sir Whitewolf left to army. Nocu singed 05 couple gigs with band called LOST DIVINE and worked with project "DIVINE". Project DIVINE was Alterblood's 3th EP. However project stopped and cd never finished.
In 2006 the Alterblood gathered again and had new members; keyboard player/female vocalist Minashi, bassist Azu and guitarist Minister. Alterblood was then hit by series of defections as Minister backed out in septemper and then both Sir Whitewolf and Minashi at november. But that was not end of it. At end of 2006 Azu moved to anothers city, so she had to leave from the band and same time Sindread left from the band. But luckily Band had replacment drummer LTG and he joined to be full time drummer. After that Saba and Kaan joined us and little later Jazon.
Now 2007, Alterblood is back with new line Up and are ready to rock again. AB will record new EP soon as possible and have lot of gigs and events. Alterblood is reborn and will rise from the ashes.
