FIRST BLOOD Debuting New Material On AGNOSTIC FRONT Tour

December 10, 2008

San Francisco, California's hardcore/metal band FIRST BLOOD has just kicked off a two-week tour with New York hardcore legends AGNOSTIC FRONT. The group is cranking out some new jams at these shows that will be included on its new album, "Silence Is Betrayal", due in early 2009.

Commented FIRST BLOOD singer Carl Schwartz: "Thankfully, there hasn't been a shortage of stuff in the world to be pissed off about, so this upcoming album will be nothing short of brutal — and quite possibly the most critical, condemning, and controversial material we will ever release. For fans of FIRST BLOOD, yes, this album will be every bit as heavy and crushing as the first, and then some. But the focus of this album resides in the message. There is simply too much going on in the world today to ignore, and if we are going to dedicate our time and lives to writing music and constantly touring the world while getting very little in return, then we might as well make it worth it and MAKE A FUCKING STATEMENT. I find this world becoming increasingly hostile while the powers that be continue to undertake massive efforts to induce us all into passivity, conformity, and false sense of comfort. Well, life is not comfortable and it is our turn to stir the pot."

FIRST BLOOD's debut album, "Killafornia", was released in 2006 via Trustkill Records.
