California thrashers Bonded by Blood have recently finished recording their latest studio album, which will be their third on Earache Records and a follow up to their 2011 album Exiled to Earth. The band has also been documenting the making of the album, and has released a video of the final studio update, which you can watch here.
Here’s what Drummer Carlos Regaldo had to say about the album:
“It’s been a crazy and totally cool month for us. We have finally finished up recording album #3! We love the sound we got and the way the songs came out – it’s so aggressive and punchy. We poured everything we had into these songs (8 months!), and we can’t wait for everybody to hear it! Mauro did such an amazing job and it’s different from our previous records for sure, as is the music, but he really showed what he had and just totally blew us away. Our writing styles just keep evolving and we can’t even believe we are capable of creating such power. The writing and recording was a blast, Logan is cool as shit and it’s almost like he knew exactly what we wanted. We hope everybody enjoys this record as much as we do; we are gearing up for the road soon – see you in the pit!”
Bonded By Blood are also set for a North American tour with Kittie, Blackguard and The Agonist. You can check out the tour dates here.
