2013, THE BLOODSHED SUMMONING offers everything that old or new Sacred Steel fans desire: heavy riffs and aggressive but catchy metal hymns. The CD-version comes with three bonus tracks, including a cover version of Misfits ,,Dig Up Her Bones" .Sacred Steel is a trademark in the metal scene: all Metal with an own attitude, never everybody's darling - and damned proud of it! Another strong point of Sacred Steel's sound on this record is Gerrit Mutz's amazing singing. His vocals are highly versatile and range from thrash to death growls in ,,Under the Banner of Blasphemy" to heavy and operatic vocals in ,,When the Siren Calls", reminiscent of Geoff Tate (formerly of Queensryche) and Messiah Marcolin (formerly Candlemass).
