Blood Stain Child is a Japanese, melodic death metal band from the city of Osaka. The band formed under the name VISIONQUEST in 1999 but later renamed itself to Blood Stain Child in 2000.[1]
The music of Blood Stain Child combines a variety of heavy metal elements such as melodic death metal, melodic black metal and power metal. A notable feature of Blood Stain Child is their tendency to incorporate both dance and trance related themes into their music. Musical influences include In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, HIM, X Japan, and Luna Sea.
The band's sound includes death vocals alongside fast drumming and a variety of guitar techniques. High-tempo guitar solos and symphonic keyboard arrangements are also featured in their songs.
Blood Stain Child released their third album, Idolator, in 2005. This album was their European debut, and was jointly produced with Tue Madsen.[2] The band has yet to release an album in the U.S..
