Opeth mainman returns to Blood Bath. New albm?
Mikael Åkerfeldt stated:
"So the time has come for BLOODBATH to once again poison the scene with a contagious doze of über brutal death metal. An old acquaintance in this zombified bloodline has once again re-visited his old home. We can now announce that the vocalist on the new mini-CD is none other than Mikael Åkerfeldt courtesy of OPETH.
"Second deathster to join the elite is Mr. Per ‘Sodomizer’ Eriksson (ex-21 LUCIFERS, ex-GENOCRUSH FEROX). Sodomizer’s brutal death metal songwriting approach as well as guitar shredding is a highly welcomed element in the legacy of BLOODBATH."
BLOODBATH 2008 is:
Mikael Åkerfeldt - Vocals
Anders "Blakkheim" Nyström - Guitar
Per "Sodomizer" Eriksson - Guitar
Jonas Renkse - Bass
Martin "Axe" Axenrot – Drums
Sourced from Blabbermouth

Will Ozzfest tour die as it will be expected to have a very limited summer run?
According to Billboard, Ozzfest will have a limited tour run this summer
It is also expected Ozzy Osbourne will stil headline.
Sharon Osbourne said about the tour being free:
"I’m not trying to be the Mother Teresa of the music industry, because I like money more than anybody else. [But] these kids cannot afford to keep shelling out all this money, every year charging more and more. The brakes have to come on somewhere."
I guess the other question, is Ozzfest finally going to die?

Kevin Lyman of Warped tour interviewed about Rockstar Mayhem tour with Slipknot and Disturbed
"Jason [Garner, Live Nation Chief Executive Officer of North American Music].was real cool on this. [He] pretty much allowed us to use their facilities and create a show we wanted to present and the financial backing we needed to make the creative deals with artists that we were able to make," Lyman told Billboard.com. "This all came together to bring in a show at a fair ticket price for the caliber of the bands that will be on the package."
