After lying dormant for six years, Boston-based hardcore/punk band BLOOD FOR BLOOD will make its American return at this year's New England Metal And Hardcore Festival on Friday, April 15. The band has also announced plans to record a new album this year, its first since 2004's "Serenity".
BLOOD FOR BLOOD reunited last year for the European Persistence Tour, which also featured SICK OF IT ALL, UNEARTH and EVERGREEN TERRACE.
"The amount letters from our fans were so overwhelming asking when or if we were ever gonna play again," said vocalist Buddha. "It seemed now is the time to make our long over-due return. But, as always, we decide the terms as to what, when, and where BLOOD FOR BLOOD will play. We do what we want and we play 'cause we want to and not 'cause we need to."
BLOOD FOR BLOOD plans to begin work on their seventh full-length album for an undetermined label in the near future.
"I am sitting on more material than at any other point in my life," Lind said. "Over the last five or six years, I crawled through darkness up to light. And I have many tales of dread to tell the kiddies. We intend to come back the way we always have after an absence... to write another chapter. That's been the M.O. of BLOOD FOR BLOOD from the beginning."
