Doomriders "Grand Blood" CD/LP/Digital, in stores October 15th

"Grand Blood" from Doomriders is the follow up to their highly regarded 2010 album "Darkness Comes Alive". "Grand Blood" was engineered by Kurt Ballou at God City Studios, and features artwork from Thomas Hooper as well as packaging from Ryan Patterson (Coliseum) and J. Bannon.

Where "Darkness Comes Alive" was smooth and heavy in tone "Grand Blood" is jagged and hard in its heart. "Grand Blood" is Doomriders pushing themselves into wilder sonic territory previously unexplored by the band. In songs like "Back Taxes" and "Bad Vibes", an angular noise rock influence takes the lead, creating a harsh and charged environment. Not to fret, the hooks Doomriders are known for are as sharp as ever though, sinking into songs like the personal "Dead Friends" and melodious and emotional "Gone to Hell". Two songs that impressively showcase Nate Newton's evolving vocal ability. While monsters "Father Midnight", "New Pyramids", and "Death In Heat" are Doomriders at their heaviest and discordant to date. All complimented by new drummer Q (Magic Circle, Clouds, etc), whose frantic style powers this genre crossing masterpiece.

From the band....

"It's been a busy year for all of us. Chris had reunion shows with Cast Iron Hike and started his new project Wormwood, Jebb has been busy tattooing and started his new project Flowers, Q busy with J/Q and Magic Circle, Nate touring with Converge and Old Man Gloom, families, jobs, etc....But we are extremely excited about our new album seeing the light of day this fall. We are very proud of it and hope that all of you will enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it. Grand Blood, October 15th via Deathwish Inc. Thanks so much everyone."
