Bloody Hammers is an American hard rock band, founded in 2010 by Anders Manga in Transylvania County, North Carolina, United States. Manga is the primary producer, singer, songwriter, and instrumentalist. Bloody Hammers' music straddles a range of genres including heavy metal, gothic rock, doom metal, and psychedelic rock. The touring band features a revolving lineup with Manga and keyboardist Devallia being the only permanent live members. Devallia also contributes keyboard parts to recordings and is sometimes credited as a co-producer.
In 2012, the self-titled Bloody Hammers album was released along with a video on YouTube for the song “Fear No Evil”. In 2014, the band signed to Napalm Records and released their second album, Under Satan's Sun, in May. This album was followed by a European tour.
