### Bloodshedd: Spare no one

#### 12/02/10 || HailandKill

Squeezing intense recording sessions between hectic weekend gigs throughout 2009, these bastards have now created a sophomore effort worthy of their impressive debut and the world’s ears. What portends even more greatness is all those crucial Bloodshedd ingredients are still present plus a few nice flourishes. Like jazz and a dot of Spanish guitar. There’s experimentation in the air as well, making it clear its experimentation that Bloodshedd want to have musical sex with in the future.

At their core, Bloodshedd are a death metal quintet whose sound is far-removed from the old school gallops and grooves but very enamored with early thrash metal. Hear the guitars on this one? Between Bong Ecat and now-departed six string wunderkind Bike Buick are an avalanche of noodly riffs, carefully executed hooks, and solos that’ll make your speakers to drip blood. Metaaaaaal!

The guitars are one thing, the drums an entirely different monster…and the bass, which make those clickity-click sounds in the hands of MC Saniago, who is quite a handsome guys in real life…sounds okay. Now on to the drums, which cook up a storm worthy of Dark Funeral’s evilest moments thanks to whatever practice regimen/pedigree/discipline Toots Book has when it comes to delivering beats that register on the Richter scale. Speaking of Dark Funeral, these Filipinos have been donning the leather and spikes lately. Bloodshedd’s infernal squealer Jojo Book, he whose windmills look like something out of The Exorcist, is decked with so many spikes (onstage at least), the man’s literally untouchable. Not kidding.

Oh wait, HailandKill almost forgot to mention the songs themselves. Except for the intro and a short instrumental segue around the middle ( a very creepy “Time To Change All”), most of “Spare No One” burns. First song “This Lifelong Enmity”swirls for a good three minutes before “Collective” barges in to brutalize like Carcass’ faster moments. It’s also here that the first glimmer of Jazz blips for a few seconds prior to the wicked guitar solo and ensuing devastation. For the album’s chunkier middle, sheer epicness rules on the memorable “Leading The Dead,” “This House of Termites,” “Spare No One,”and the scornful “Point Blank Target On God”.

Without hype or any marketing to bring their sound overseas, all Bloodshedd have got to rely on is raw talent. Believe you HailandKill, raw talent is what abounds here. Utterly ferocious.

Rrrrrrrraaaaawwwwwrrr!
