In 2006, during some boring winter days on the east coast of Iceland, Bloodgroup was formed. After a few months of writing unique and catchy dance-pop, the group played at the Iceland Airwaves festival. The performance got them a great deal of attention, praising their on-stage energy, terrific melodies, and beats that got even the hardest metalheads to dance! Today, they are considered one of the best live acts in Iceland.

The group is made up of Halez, Lilja, Raggi (two brothers and a sister) and Janus (Lilja's boyfriend). After raising attention in Iceland and elsewhere, the group finished their first album,

. Produced and released on their own, the band's debut has been hailed as one of the best albums of 2007 by several critics in Iceland.
