Sikth unleash revived version of ‘Bland Street Bloom’

Today, British prog-metal visionaries Sikth have shared a new version of fan favourite track, ‘Bland Street Bloom‘. The song is the opener from their seminal sophomore album Death Of A Dead Day and this new version will appear on “Death of a Dead Day MMXXVI”, a fully revived and remastered edition of the critically acclaimed record.

Mixed by long-time collaborator and admirer of the band, Adam “Nolly” Getgood, the re-release arrives twenty years after the release of the album, celebrating the album’s anniversary and cementing its legacy as one of the most important progressive metal releases of all time. “Death of a Dead Day MMXXVI” will be released on 4th December 2026 via Cooking Vinyl.

Speaking on “Death of a Dead Day MMXXVI”, Sikth guitarist and renowned producer Dan Weller comments:
“I can’t quite believe it’s been 20 years since Death of a Dead Day. It’s an album that we’re still incredibly proud of, and it means a huge amount to us.

“We’re really excited for people to hear the 2026 version, with Nolly bringing his fresh take to the mix. I think it’s turned out great. It’s also pretty crazy to think that Nolly was one of the first people to start making SIKTH guitar covers on YouTube when the album was originally released. In a way, that makes him the perfect person to revisit it — there aren’t many people who know Death of a Dead Day as intimately as he does.”
