BLOODLIGHTS WAS FOUNDED BY CAPTAIN POON IN 2006, AFTER HIS FORMER OUTFIT GLUECIFER CALLED IT QUITS.
IN THE END OF 2007 BLOODLIGHS RELEASED THEIR SELF TITLED DEBUT, AND HIT THE ROAD SHORTLY AFTER.
THE TOURING SCHEDULE TURNED INTO A LONG AND HECTIC ONE, WITH MORE THAN HUNDRED AND TWENTY SHOWS ALL OVER EUROPE AND JAPAN.
AT THE END OF 2008 BLOODLIGHTS COULD ALREADY CROSS OUT A LARGE NUMBER OF HEADLINER SHOWS AND BIG FESTIVALS. ALONG WITH THIS CAME A LONG STRING OF GIGS AND TOURS WITH ACTS LIKE MONSTER MAGNET, THE HELLACOPTERS, MILLENCOLLIN, AND GERMAN MULTI-MILLION SELLER DIE TOTEN HOSEN.
IN 2009 IT WAS ABOUT TIME TO FOCUS FULLY ON THEIR SECOND ALBUM, AND BLOODLIGHTS WAS BARELY TO BE SEEN ON THE LIVECIRCUIT.
THE ALBUM WAS NAMED ”SIMPLE PLEASURES” AND WAS RECORDED IN MULTIPLE SESSIONS, SPREAD OUT IN FOUR DIFFERENT STUDIOS.
THE RECORD IS PRODUCED BY SONGWRITER AND BANDLEADER CAPTAIN POON:
”I HAD NO SECOND THOUGHTS ABOUT GETTING BEHIND THE WHEEL MYSELF THIS TIME AS A PRODUCER. WE HAVE BECOME A TIGHT UNIT, AND GET ALONG PERFECTLY, BOTH ON A PERSONAL AND MUSICAL LEVEL.
I..M FULLY AWARE THAT ASSISTANCE FROM THE OUTSIDE WORLD CAN BE CRUCIAL AT TIMES, BUT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE ON SIMPLE PLEASURES.. IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE FOR ALL OF US BUILDING THIS PIECE TOGHETER, AND A VERY SMOOTH RIDE.”
”SIMPLE PLEASURES” IS A STRAIGHT TO THE POINT ROCK..N..ROLL RECORD, WITH 35 MINUTES OF GOOD RIFFS, GREAT HOOKS AND CATCHY MELODIES.
EARLY CRITICS HAVE MENTIONED ”SIMPLE PLEASURES” TO BE A SURE SHOT FOR THOSE WHO GET THEIR ROCKS OFF BY BANDS LIKE SEX PISTOLS, MOTORHEAD, THIN LIZZY AND AC/DC.
BLOODLIGHTS HAVE NO CONCERNS ABOUT REVEALING THEIR SOURCES.
”THOSE BANDS AND A HANDFUL OF OTHERS ARE THE ONES WE GREW UP WITH, AND THE ONES WE¨VE ALWAYS LOVED.
AS A BAND WE..RE PROUD TO KEEP ROCK..N..ROLL ALIVE AND TO ADD SOME FRESH BLOOD TO IT", STATES GUITARIST HOWIE B.
BLOODLIGHTS IS IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL, AND COMES THROUGH AS A SOLID ROCK IN A JUNGLE OF NEW-BORN AND DYING TRENDS.
THIS AND A FAIR SHARE OF MORE OBVIOUS REASONS IS WHY YOU SHOULD RUN TO THE STORE AND GET YOURSELF OF A COPY OF THEIR BRAND NEW RECORD "SIMPLE PLEASURES”.

Hi Bloodlights. EletriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs make its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check EletriKa out! Thanks a lot for the attention and support. Keep in touch.
Kisses from Brazil, Marie
