If the ghost of Johnny Cash was to unexpectedly rise out of its tomb and supernaturally resurrect its musical soul in the form of a hardcore band, the result would be an anthemic, outlaw punch not unlike Boston's favorite white trash hardcore hooligans, BLOOD FOR BLOOD.

While Cash grew up as a restless farm boy who longed for fast cars and fast women, the boys in BLOOD FOR BLOOD were reared in the projects and their outlaw spirit reflects the callous surroundings from which they were rendered. Blood For Blood are from outside. They stand on the threshold of society with all but a few toes tangling off the edge with a maniacal desperation, longing for sanity. Theirs is a journey from one end of alienation to the other - only to be flung violently back to the hole from which they crawled out of. "I been held down my whole life. This band is my opportunity to spit in society's face..." says guitar player Rob Lind.

Inspired by bands such as Sheer Terror, Breakdown, Carnivore and Raw Deal, Blood For Blood formed as a reaction to the existing heavy music scene in Boston back in 1995. "We couldn't relate to anything that was going on in Boston at the time," says vocalist Erick Medina, "We wanted to hear music about the shit we saw and faced everyday. The scene at the time was a fashion show." Blood For Blood make no mistake about what their talents are - and what talents they lack. They don't sing. They don't rap. They don't dance. They don't act. And they definitely ain't too pretty. They are white trash hardcore rock and roll. And they have just begun their invasion of today's hair-and-nails conscious heavy music scene.
