We started in 2004 as a quite Black Metal band. Recorded a Demo and gathered some live experiences in dusty cellars.
In 2006, the realease of the first full-length "Endzeit" was settled and we attacked many places in Switzerland with provocant and insane gigs. Thanks to stage-partners like Shining, Asmodeus, Merrimack, Requiem etc, BLUTMOND was quite well-known in Europe. Pleasant reviews, many gigs and a growing fanbase. But nothing lasts forever...
One part of us decided to change things. No more mindless Black Metal shredding, no more tales about war and wolves, no more corpsepainting. The idea was clear: We want to create something new, something emotional, something honest! Some members left, others stayed.
We set sails to Markus Stock and his Klangschmiede Studio E in autumn 2009 to record the all new and satisfying record "Thirteen Urban Ways 4 Groovy Bohemian Days". This should be just the beginning of something, what we've still not can gauge. Sure, you can't give nice gigs with this line-up. Marlon (guitar) and Marc (saxophone) were recruited and trained to join the force and support us during sweaty gigs.
After quite a lot of correspondence, we joined the italian label Code666 to release our new record. It was an honour to work with those guys!
Well, time passes by...
Played exhausting gigs in Germany and Italy; met lots of interesting people and fought many fights with ourselves.
2011, we entered the famous Klangschmiede Studio E again for a very long recoding session. We recorded something... let's say... Big! Don't expect another "Thirteen...", wait for a non-stop rollercoaster through your mind; featuring a lot of surpises and many famous guest musicians, such as Anna Murphy (Eluveitie), Managarm (Varg), Fredy Schnyder (Nucleus Torn) and Markus Baltes (Autumnblaze) etc.
Future seems to be very interesting.
So stay tuned for more bohemian tunes, we're still ready!
See Ya...
