Sänger und Gitarrist Mikael Åkerfeldt der schwedischen Progressive Metalle OPETH, steigt bei der Death Metal Supergroup BLOODBATH aus.
"They have a new singer, which I can't say who it is," sagt Mikael zu Loudwire.
Weiters: "BLOODBATH, for me, was never a serious project, it was just something I did for fun.
We did a few songs on the last North American tour, we did two songs at the very last show (see video below. - Ed.) because we were touring with KATATONIA, so the whole BLOODBATH band was there.
It's still fun, you know? But I think that some of the other guys in BLOODBATH want to take it to the next level, which I don't really want to do because I'm so busy anyways."
"It doesn't really have to do with anything with my screaming vocals, it's just that it's not a progressive project for me.
It's just paying tribute to death metal and I've done it for such a long time.
And when it stops being fun, I don't really want to participate.
We do things so rarely it's always been fun. The shows we've done have been fun, but I don't feel the need to do it."
