We started in 2004 as a quite primitive trio, namely Totenstille (guitars), Ketzer (guitars, programming) and Dorn (vocals). After a couple of creative years, Freitod (bass) and Unhold (drums) completed the Band and helped establishing the troup on several gigs in Switzerland. Meanwhile, the demo CD "Irgendwo Dazwischen" was realeased in 2005 (including the old 3-piece line-up).

We started in 2004 as a quite primitive trio, namely Totenstille (guitars), Ketzer (guitars, programming) and Dorn (vocals).

Meanwhile, the demo CD "Irgendwo Dazwischen" was realeased in 2005 (including the old 3-piece line-up).

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! Dorn and Ketzer left; here's the trio again...

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 and Effects) 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's an honour to work with those guys, they really know and feel what we're looking for.

So stay tuned for more bohemian tunes, we're ready!

See Ya.

BLUTMOND are the bleak side of the conventional attitude towards the bohemian lifestyle and the urban madness. Where others stumble every day, we look closely and question things, which already became daily nonsense. Let it be the depressed grey shapes wandering through the commuter traffic in the smoggy dawn, the alcohol-fueled nocturnal intermezzo in the underground between the bedraggled stops after a friday night out in an overcrowded and excessive loud pub amid a cloud of smoke or the sense or absurdity of the modern meritocracy with all of its perversion…

Where the mass flows the fastest, we stand still more than ever! When the crisis comes closer, we invest in champagne. Each one who abominates this, is already part of what a profitable anti-crisis-drug named swine flu inoculating is to us. We all live in a world, that stopped to exist long ago and now only spins around ourselves. Instead of playful sense and being, theres dam'n TV with silly casting shows, drug problems, youporn, overpaid team sport, fucked up Lady Gaga and the prostitution sponsored by materialism. Our opinion is that all included this composes a brand-new chapter of the history of mankind: the first chapter whose "urban mysticism" as such is already in existance in the present. Because we're blinded by the lights, the noise, the supersonic speed rush, and the all-embracing superficiality.

When the asphalt begins to glow, lightened by thousand threecoloured suns, the far traffic - like pulsating echoes from the past - combines with the clear scent of the full moon, and yonder rises above the skyline; everything lingers in the void at so late an hour and the purifying fire ignites in our blood and in the blood of the less resistant, like valium with speed, then, that's for sure, WE are the ones that judge others, that decide on the end of a day and not at least:
How to find ourselves again!

So listen to our urban tunes and go ahead...

NEXT ONE PLEEZE!
