Back in September of 2013, Bloodbath said they were releasing a new record this year (2014), which is extremely good news except for that whole thing where we still have no idea who their vocalist is.
There's a bright side to the riddle you're about to read though- last year the band said they wouldn't reveal who the new vocalist is until they had some music to put along with his (her?) voice, so I guess this is their way of getting us pumped up for some new jams as well. Anyway, the band took to Facebook to post this monolith of a riddle.
"UGHH! HEEEY! I SAID HEY! We got 10 songs down and we start recording drums next month!!! Still curious who's gonna sing on this one? Well, we'll leave you with these disasters to see if any of you smart-azzez can figure it out

MetalSucks points out that this would be 1971 and sadly is not the birth year of Christian Älvestam, so I'm already wrong. So far I've seen predictions of Jörgen Sandström from The Project Hate MCMXCIX, Krux, etc. (also from MetalSucks), Erik Rutan from Hate Eternal, Paul Kuhr from November's Doom and Johan Edlund from Tiamat. Anyone else have any suggestions?
