BLOODHUNTER is an extreme Metal band born in Galician lands (Spain) in 2008 from the hand of sole founding member and main songwriter, Fenris. After several changes in their lineup and concept, Diva Satánica joins the band in 2009, whose guttural vocal assault helped drift the band into more extreme territories. They release a demo called “The First Insurrection” in 2013, garnering good reviews from the specialized media.
Their self-titled full-length album is released on May 2014, produced by Daniel Cardoso and Pedro Mendes at Ultrasound Studios. Eleven tracks that include updated versions of the 3 songs already present in the demo, as a result of a journey from the instinct that expresses the essence of this band: its versatility. Marios Iliopoulos, founding member of the Death Metal band Nightrage, contributes the typical passion of a south European guitarist adorned by the subtlety of the Gothenburg school of playing, creating a magnificent guitar solo for the song “Bring Me Horror” which fits perfectly with the concept of the band. “Embrace the Dark Light” and “Dying Sun” videoclips are released in June 2014 and October 2015 respectively in order to push the album through the internet. This album, which is currently sold out, has been distributed physically in many countries around the world such as Japan, USA, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Spain, Portugal, UK, Germany, Sweden, France, among others.
In the Summer of 2015, their lead guitarist Fenris won the chance to participate in the “100 Guitars From Hell” event, travelling to Finland to play an entire 30-minute piece with guitar shredder Alexi Laiho from Children Of Bodom, Samy Elbannan from Lost Society and Archie Cruz from Santa Cruz among others.
Later, the band would open for bands like Hemdale (USA), Holy Moses (Germany), Avulsed (Spain), Ancient Rites (Belgium), Rise to Fall (Spain) or Aposento (Spain), before joining Nightrage (Sweden) and Methedras (Italy) on their first weeklong Spanish trek called "The Bloody Tour".
In Spring 2017, BLOODHUNTER signed a deal with Xtreem Music for the release of “The End of Faith” is the second full-length album of the band, produced by Álex Cappa & BLOODHUNTER at The Metal Factory Studios, which contains ten new tracks where you can hear Diva Satánica's new broad vocal range as well as a mind blowing drum performance by Marcelo Aires. This album is the natural evolution of the band playing extreme metal without neglecting guitar melodies.
