Vestal Claret, literally translated "Virgin Blood" is the brainchild of Hour of 13's Phil Swanson. What has come is a pitch dark, yet dynamic heavy metal record. "Bloodbath" contains almost all of the band's highly sought after demos and EP material, re-recorded and re-imagined. Featuring guest musicians from Atlantean Kodex, Legend (US), Forsaken, Altar of Oblivion, Seamount, Iron Age, Black Pyramid, NightBitch, Planet Gemini, and Cauldron Born.
