About Me


(live @ tour kickoff party -- we turned the lights on and everyone went away! sorry for the sound quality, this just looks sexy)
To summarize: We're better than ever and ready to slaughter!
Formed in 2004 by pop/soundtrack writer Kate and friends, Bloodletter underwent multiple lineup changes until late 2005. Eventually honing their sound into an eclectic mixture of heavy metal and a Corrosion Of Conformity-esque southern rock. The presence of a pop songwriter had no bearing on the sound of the music, as the group went straight to their root influences in hard rock, heavy metal, technical drumming and blues-infused guitar parts.
With tours under their belt, as well as appearances in NOW, Eye and Spin! magazines, plus television spots on Much Music's MuchOnDemand, Bloodletter are poised to overthrow Canada's metal media and concert circuit in the coming months!
Working five days a week on the band, they're gearing up to record a full album of new material after several demo discs. Also in the works: A full motion music video!
So thanks for stopping by, and the profile will be updated with more information soon. Cheers, and tell your friends about Bloodletter -- we've got VJs Matte and Tim behind our army!
