Bloodlights



Offiziell Bestätigt

Guitarist Captain Poon, formed Bloodlights in 2006, after his hard rock outfit Gluecifer broke up in 2005. The name comes from the phenomenon of seeing red flashes right before passing out after consuming too much "of everything". After some time writing songs, Captain Poon stepped into the role as both guitarplayer and vocalist, taking a more melodic approach. After some rehearsals with drummer Jonas Thire of Amulet, bassist Ron Elly joined. Guitarist Howie B joined in march the same year, and the band spent most of their time recording demos and rehearsing. Their first single, produced by the band, "One Eye Open", was part of a soundtrack for the Norwegian horror movie Fritt Vilt. The song was later re-recorded for their debut album.

Early 2007, the band recorded their debut album in Berlin with producer Phil Caivano from Monster Magnet. In May 2007, drummer Jonas Thire was replaced by Nico Von Schäfer. The self-titled album was released on German label Mate In Germany in november 2007, owned by the bands manager, Ole Kirchoff, and distributed in Scandinavia by Playground Music Scandinavia.

Bloodlights´ style and material are heavily influences by 70´s and 80´s melodic rock, often combining melodic vocals with hard rock riffs, such as Thin Lizzy. The band is also influenced by harder rock acts such as Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, and AC/DC. There´s also boogie rock tendencies to trace, influenced by general scandinavian rock, and seventies classic rock acts such as early Status Quo and Cheap Trick.
