Bloodstain is a Swedish thrash metal band formed in late 2023.[1]

History

Early years (2023-2025)

Bloodstain was founded in fall of 2023 by four classmates at Rytmus music high school in Stockholm, who formed the band to compete in the local music competition Lidingö Rock.[1][2] The band came second at the competition, and received the award for best guitarist.[1][3]

In March 2024, Bloodstain released their debut EP I Am Death.[1] The EP has been praised by critics,[4][5][6] and set the stage for future releases. This first release also lead to the band's appearance on The Rising Four, a Swedish Metal tour with Eradikated, Eternal Evil, Sarcator and Bloodstain.[7] Shortly after this, they signed a management and production deal with Alex Hellid from Entombed and Threeman Recordings.[1][8]

Debut album (2025-)

Bloodstain toured Sweden together with Dark Tranquility and Múr in October 2025, and has appeared at festivals such as Downtown Riot and Sweden Rock.[9][10][11] Alongside performing various concerts around Sweden, Bloodstain haved played at Hellfest 2026[12] and at Time to Rock 2026.[13]

The band is due to release their debut album, "Bloodstain",[14][15] on the Swedish record label Threeman Recordings and by extension on Candlelight Records[16] on 25 September, 2026.[17] The band has released 5 singles for the album, the most recent being "Annihilation Line" released on June 19.[18][19]
