Band Details

From the Promoter

BLOODBATH

Formed in 1999, Bloodbath is an old-school death metal act from Sweden featuring members from such bands as Opeth, Katatonia and Witchery.

On 16 September 2014 Nick Holmes of Paradise Lost was introduced as being the band's new vocalist, replacing Mikael Åkerfeldt who left the band earlier.

SACRIFICE

While the United States had its big four metal bands in the 1980s (Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Slayer), Canada also had its own big five: VOIVOD, RAZOR, ANNIHILATOR, EXCITER, and Toronto’s SACRIFICE. Born in Scarborough in 1983, the band released three albums during the 80s on Diabolic Force/Fringe that are all considered to be absolute thrash metal classics. The band even had a pretty big video hit on Much Music (back when they played videos, of course) with “Reanimation” and was a big live draw across Canada.
