BROTHERS IN BLOOD IS EXCLUSIVELLY SPONSORED BY:
Brothers In Blood was founded back in 1998 in Pleven, as side oldchool hardcore project by Shutta (vocals) and Ceko (guitars). BIB was started after the members of the first ever Pleven hardcore band Pool Punishers parted ways (some of them leaving Pleven and moving abroad to the Czech Republic).
In the beginning, BIB members Shutta and Ceko, joined by the young syco drummer Joro (La Miseria), tried to play some raw ideas, inspired by hardcore bands like 25 Ta Life (thats where the name BIB originally came from). Surprisingly, the things worked out attractively well, and after the returning of Sandy (Pool Punishers) on bass, the band rapidly recorded an absolutely non-professional DIY demo, containing 10 tracks and called Pleven Hardcore Demo 1998. The Demo turned out to be a favorite of the growing Bulgarian hardcore audience. It was promoted with a bunch of local shows and a couple of appearances in Sofia and Varna in 98/99.
Shortly after, the band temporarily stopped its activities. In the following years though, it could have been seen performing casually at summer festivals like Freemind, and at Christmas Hardcore. In those performances, the band showed up with different new members like Sven (Pool Punishers), Parj and various members of Pleven hardcore/metal society.
In 2001, Shutta took the responsibility of the vocals in Vendetta (RIP), and Brothers In Blood stopped existing for a long time. They only gathered to play in 2003 on I-Rejects Balkan Tour. BIB performed a couple of classics together with their Dutch friends, who were invited by Sven and Shutta (both running the hardcore label Years Of Pain) for a short summer tour.
After the demise of Vendetta in 2005, the idea of Brothers In Blood reunion didn't take long to come true. So, the band kicks back, born again since late 2005 with the new young members: Alexander (Empty Face) on bass, drummers Alexander (Fight to Win, Underdogz) lately replaced by Valio "The Blast":) (Empty Face), Alexander (Shutta SDB) screams and Sven on guitars.
Stay tuned for more Brothers In Blood!!!
