In This Moment - Blood


In This Moment is an American heavy metal band from Los Angeles, California. The band was formed by singer Maria Brink and guitarist Chris Howorth in 2005. They found drummer Jeff Fabb and started the band as Dying Star. Unhappy with their musical direction, they changed their name to In This Moment and gained two band members, guitarist Blake Bunzel and bassist Josh Newell. In late 2005, bassist Newell left the band and was replaced by Pascual Romero, who in turn was quickly replaced by Jesse Landry. Landry was replaced by Kyle Konkiel in 2009 and Konkiel was replaced by Travis Johnson in 2010. Jeff Fabb and Blake Bunzel left the band in 2011, and were replaced by Tom Hane and Randy Weitzel respectively.



Their debut album, Beautiful Tragedy, was released in 2007. Their second album, titled The Dream was released the following year. The band's third album, A Star-Crossed Wasteland was released in 2010, and their fourth album titled Blood was released in August 2012. They have performed on several notable tours and festivals including Ozzfest in 2007 and 2008, Warped Tour in 2009, Download Festival in 2009, Mayhem Festival in 2010 and the Music as a Weapon V tour in 2011.




Todays tune is the title track from the fourth studio album "Blood". The album was released by Century Media on August 14, 2012. As has been the case with every In This Moment album, the record has a different sound, dropping many of the traditional metalcore elements in favor for electronic samples and further experimentation.

'Blood' was one of the first two songs written for the upcoming album. It was written by bandmates Maria Brink and Chris Howorth along with longtime producer Kevin Churko and his son Kane. The song features Brinks intense vocals, heavy guitars and Electronica elements which gives the band a fresh new sound. The single was released to all digital retailers on June 12, 2012.

My first thought was Lady Gaga Goes Metal when I saw the video, judge for yourself.

Det här var bättre än vad jag trodde när jag först läste igenom texten. Coolt.
