Bloodhunter

Rising from the heart of Galicia, Spain, Bloodhunter have been steadily carving their name into the European metal scene with razor-sharp riffs and a ferocious stage presence. Formed in 2012 by guitarist and composer Dani Arcos, the band really found its voice with the arrival later that year of vocalist Diva Satanica, a growling powerhouse who would later gain wider fame through her stint in Nervosa and as a contestant on The Voice Spain. Bloodhunter’s sound is rooted in melodic death metal but leans into thrash, groove and even classic heavy metal influences, resulting in a style that is both catchy and crushing. Albums like ‘The End of Faith’ (2017) and breakout album ‘Knowledge Was the Price’ (2022) – with a Ripper Owens guest appearance – showcase aggressive, technically precise work focusing on dark, introspective themes. Their rise has been fuelled by tireless touring, fierce determination and a live reputation that’s growing louder with every set. Expect sheer energy, furious solos and guttural vocals that obliterate all. #GMM25
