Biography
Blodsmak is a norwegian folkcore band formed in Drammen Norway, in 2011, playing heavy rock with a generous sprinkling of norwegian folk music.
Building on the folk metal tradition of Lumsk, Gåte, Glittertind, they are more heavy and less metal, combining their thunderous grooves and insistent riffs with almost proglike elements and a melodic sensibility reminicient of both 90's introvert grunge and 80’s shameless stadion rock.
