Long Island, NY metallic hardcore group Blood Runs Cold announced their debut, self-titled EP, set to release July 28 through Daze Records. In addition, the band offered the vicious, eponymous single, “B.R.C.”
Guitarist Evan Perino (Separated, Missing Link) and drummer Dillon Perino (Sanction, The Fight)—joined by vocalist Joey Chiaramonte (Koyo, Typecaste)—set out to produce a sound that was heavier than what was currently happening in their local scene. Rounded out by guitarist Mike Marino (Sanction) and bassist Kyle Mulligan, the band took their time in the studio crafting the six heavy-hitting songs that makeup the self-titled EP.
Describing the new single, Chiaramonte explains: “‘B.R.C.’ feels like the mission statement track for the band. Aggressive, intense, hard shit that never lets up. In my mind this band’s music is supposed to be unrelenting, and this track is nonstop, unforgiving, mosh metal violence.”
Blood Runs Cold Tracklist:
1. B.R.C.
2. White Noise
3. Residuals
4. Kill Yourself
5. Fated
6. Mercy (Put Me Down)
The new single follows “Residuals” and “Kill Yourself,” which were both released as a promo this past February. You’ll find these three tracks on the EP, alongside three more that document feelings of loneliness, resentment, and mortality. Channeling bands like Buried Alive and All Out War, huge riffs, stomping breakdowns, and gnarly tones encompass the record. Blood Runs Cold was recorded and mixed by Evan Perino at Shellshock Audio and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audioseige.
