“Blood for Blood have returned from exile with new music and new live dates. We’re proud to say we’ve signed with Roadrunner Records, and our new single ‘You’re Gonna Have to Kill Me’ is streaming everywhere now. It’s a straight-up-the-pipe Blood for Blood song. Initially, it points out pop culture’s fascination with criminality and outlaw nonsense. Everybody is trying to be wild, gangster, or whatever, all of which ‘You’re Gonna Have To Kill Me’ sneers at. For all of this contempt, it ends on a really positive note. It might even be uplifting, which is my hope.” – Rob Lind
