Bloodred is a blackened death metal band from Oberstenfeld (North of Stuttgart, Germany). Since it´s founding in 2009 the band is the project of Ron Merz who is the songwriter and plays all instruments. The vocals and programming are also done by him.

Due to the lack of other musicians in his area Bloodred is currently a pure studio project such as Summoning or Falkenbach.

The music of Bloodred combines influences from Black and Death Metal and mixes it with late 80s Thrash and sometimes (British) Doom.

Incorporating melodies and a certain epic feel into the music - like Emperor or Moonsorrow do - is always a key element. The lyrics cover a wide range from diverse literary sources to contemporary events and topics.

In December 2013 and March 2014 the time was right to record the first EP. The recording took place at Mastersound Entertainment Studio by renowned producer and Death Metal veteran Alexander Krull (Atrocity, Leaves' Eyes).

On the new EP Bloodred shows mainly the furious Black Death Metal site behind the band's name. All drums were played by Joris Nijenhuis (also Atrocity, Leaves' Eyes). He shows his extraordinary skills in both songs and lifts the music to the next level.

The EP 'The Lost Ones' was released June 20th 2014 digitally in advance. The physical release was unleashed end of August 2014.

In the summer of 2015 Bloodred once again entered Mastersound Studio to record the first full album. It was once again produced by Alexander Krull. The drums were played by Joris Nijenhuis. The album 'Nemesis' was released on April 8th 2016 and is available on on all major plattforms and as a limited edition digipack in the onlinestore.
