"When they ended the
show, the audience wanted to hear more. Bloodshot definitely has a future
in this business."
-Show Review from Darksoul7.com
Bloodshot was formed in Las Vegas in August 2002. They released their debut cd, Demons, Addictions & Confidence on October 29th, 2002. Their single, "Brothers in Blood" has received airplay on 107.5 Xtreme Radio. Their new single "Out of Body, from the upcoming 2nd album, has received airplay on KOMP 92.3 in Las Vegas as well. Their live show is explosive, aggressive, and captivating. Bloodshot is one of the most downloaded unsigned bands on the internet, having sold over 1,000 copies of their debut album through shear hard work.
With a professional attitude rarely seen locally, the members of Bloodshot have attacked the local metal scene with a barrage of shows and promotion.
The band's influences are as diverse as their personalities, with everyone from Motley Crue, Slayer, Iron Maiden, Stone Temple Pilots, Ratt, Godsmack, and Pantera providing inspiration.
In August of 2003, Bloodshot put their money where their mouth was, bankrolling the Las Vegas Metal Fest on their own dime. The festival featured such acts as Deicide, Monstrosity, Strapping Young Lad and other death metal heavyweights. Even though Bloodshot is not a death metal band, they wowed the crowd on a Saturday night, going on fearlessly before the death metal onslaught began, and winning over hundreds of new fans. Bloodshot was actually described as the "token" crowd pleaser by a reviewer.
The band is currently working on the follow up to Demons, Addictions and Confidence, and expects to release the new disc very soon.
