After the recent release of their latest single “Threshold Of Hell” featuring Fernando Ribeiro of MOONSPELL , Spanish melodic death metal band BLOODHUNTER have presented a brand-new music video for their thrilling cover of the ANNIHILATOR classic, “Human Insecticide” !
The track will be included on the band’s highly anticipated upcoming album, Sons Of The Abandoned , which is scheduled for release on June 12 via ROAR – A Division of Reigning Phoenix Music . In addition, BLOODHUNTER have announced a run of tour dates in Spain as special guests of CRYPTA . You can find all their upcoming appearances below!
Speaking about the single, guitarist Dani Arcos comments: “It’s a carefree, fun and very raw song from ANNIHILATOR that I think fits BLOODHUNTER well.”
Singer Diva Satanica adds: “A classic from that thrash band that’s very fitting given current global political events, which was extremely hard for me to sing because of its fast lyrics. I had a great time singing it!”
Formed in Galicia, BLOODHUNTER have steadily carved out their name on the international extreme metal scene through relentless touring, uncompromising sound and a clear artistic vision. Led by Diva Satanica , the band combines extreme metal aggression with melodic depth, groove and narrative ambition, forging a sound that is at once savage and emotionally charged.
Since their founding, BLOODHUNTER have stood out for their conceptual approach and strong identity. Their music has always balanced violence with atmosphere, drawing on themes such as ancient civilizations, power, human conflict and transcendence. Over the years, the band has evolved naturally, refining their songwriting and pushing the boundaries of the genre without losing their aggressive core.
Sons Of The Abandoned , produced by Tue Madsen , marks a turning point in BLOODHUNTER’s career . It is their most personal and honest album to date, shifting the focus inward, exploring identity, vulnerability, personal struggle and the cost of following one’s own path. For the first time, the lyrics speak directly from the heart, addressing inner demons, toxic environments, generational disconnect and the feeling of being lost in a world driven by individualism and superficial values. Musically, the album widens the band’s palette. Crushing riffs coexist with elegant grooves and striking melodic passages, while sharp contrasts define the songwriting: rage against beauty, speed against atmosphere, darkness against clarity.
With Sons Of The Abandoned , BLOODHUNTER establish themselves as a band unafraid to evolve, challenge expectations and expose their own scars. This is not just another extreme metal album, it is a statement of identity, resistance and survival in a world that constantly demands compromise.
