History: Members from PP and De Nikx form Bloedbad as a protest against disco in 1982. Always play 2 different sets by change of guitar and vocals. Link in 1983 up with the Rood Wit Zwart collective from Groningen (with bands such as JetsetMassagrafVacuüm). Edwin (guitar/vocals) leaves the band in the summer of 1984 and gets replaced by Michael (from Puinhoop).
