Sanguisugabogg

Sanguisugabogg is an American death metal band from Columbus, Ohio, formed in 2019. The band emerged with a deliberately crude, gore-obsessed aesthetic and a crushingly heavy sound rooted in old-school death metal and slam. Their name — a playful, absurdist take on horror imagery — perfectly encapsulates their approach: brutally heavy music delivered with a sense of humor and an unpretentious DIY ethos that resonated immediately with the underground metal community. Their debut album "Tortured Whole" (2021), released on Century Media Records, was hailed as one of the most exciting death metal debuts in years, combining caveman-heavy riffs with surprisingly catchy songwriting. The follow-up "Homicidal Ecstasy" (2023) further refined their approach, earning widespread acclaim and establishing Sanguisugabogg as one of the most popular bands in the new wave of American death metal. Their energetic live shows have made them a festival favorite.
