\"BloodCommand\"<\/p>\n

Norwegian quartet\u00a0Blood Command<\/strong> have been considered a well-kept secret for the best part of a decade. However, since the release of last year’s acclaimed ‘Cult Drugs’<\/em> LP, that has started to change. Their mix of hardcore, pop, metal and punk, which the band describe as “deathpop”, is an adrenaline rush full of infectious and defiant songs. Songs such as ‘Gang Signs’<\/em> and ‘You Can\u2019t Sit With Us’<\/em>, along with the title track showcase their rapturous, genre-flexing sound. While album closer, ‘(The World Covered In) Purple Shroud’<\/em>, is a frenzied six-minute blast with rumbling percussion, a charging melody, oh and the use mariachi brass horns.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, there has been very few opportunities to see Blood Command<\/strong> on these shores; the current incarnation have only made a few appearances over here with one being an impressionable outing at\u00a02000trees<\/a> this past summer. Thankfully, they’re returning this week to kick off a run that consists of headline shows along with dates supporting Rolo Tomassi.<\/p>\n

As they prepare to travel throughout the UK, we asked the members of\u00a0Blood Command<\/strong> to curate a playlist of songs they’re going to be jamming whilst on the road in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
