BLUDGEON

Way back in 1996, Zach White (vokills) and Tim Leigh (guttars), broke away from their previous band members to form a new outfit which was more extreme than their previous efforts. Around a year after forming they recorded a 2 track demo titled 'Mainstay of Hatred'. This was recorded in Zach's old flat on a 4-track. Bludgeon never released this due to a bad sound. They mainly just passed it around friends and such for their own amusement!
With many members coming and going over the next few years, it wasn't until early 2000 that Bludgeon entered the studio to record their next demo entitled 'A Cannibals Fixation'. The 3 track promo was recorded in there local home town at a small 16 track analogue studio. The band yet again suffered a poor production, but this time the material was tighter and way more technical. Bludgeon did release this demo, but only had around 100 copies of it printed. Various cool guys throughout the underground made copies of it and distributed it. This also received some airplay in the U.S on many underground radio stations. As far as Bludgeon is concerned, to this date the demo is no longer available and they have no plans to make it resurface.
In March 2001 Bludgeon entered the studio again, this time to record the 'Realm of Decay' promo. This was the first time that the band had really thought of the material as being a good representation of what they are capable of. The production was better than all previous efforts, and Bludgeon wound up getting offers from various labels. The 'Realm' demo was officially released for the first time in 2005 by Australian label 'Life Fluid Productions', on a three way split cd featuring Bludgeon - Corpse Carving - and Twitch of The Death Nerve.
During 2005 Bludgeon played many shows in and around the UK to much success, enhancing there brutal live reputation. The band set up and self financed a mini tour with Vomit Remnants (Japan) and Godless Truth (Czech Rep), as well as being added as a support band to shows with Goratory (USA) - Skinned (USA) - Visceral Bleeding (Swe) – Mortal Decay (USA) – Beheaded (Malta) – and Brutus (hol).
Just recently Chris 'Manser' Mansfield became a member of the fold, after seeing him play in his previous band we knew that he had the skills to be at least due a try out, which he sailed through and is now ready to unleash the hatred of Bludgeon live.
Devoted to Lunacy is now complete and Bludgeon continue the search for a label to release this. If you are interested in releasing this cd dont hesitate in getting in touch with the band.
Prepare to be sickened.
