Hailing from The Island of Long (ya'know, Long Island,) New York, Blood Runs Cold is creating Metallic Hardcore fueled by sheer frustration. Just last week, the band made their debut with double-single, "Residuals" B/W "Kill Yourself," out on DAZE. Formed by brothers, guitarist Evan Perino (Separated, Missing Link) and drummer Dillon Perino (Sanction, The Fight,) the two set out with vocalist Joey Chiarmonte (KOYO, Soul Provider, TYPECASTE) to produce a sound that was heavier than what was currently happening in the local scene. Rounded out by guitarist Mike Marino (Sanction) and first-time bassist Kyle Mulligan, the band took their time in the studio crafting out what you hear today. The two songs fall into a similar vein of recent DAZE releases, like Simulakra & Foreign Hands, while pulling influence from bands, like Buried Alive, Madball & Poison The Well. "Residuals" sets off with a classic Melodic [Hardcore] start before heading into a mosh-fueled fury of hulking guitars and shout-along vocals. On the seethingly direct "Kill Yourself," an impassioned vocal fury stirs, supported by crashing cymbals and crushing guitar work.


Speaking on the lyrical content, the band stated: "Most of the songs come from a frustrated or hateful place. Depression, mortality, [and] frustration with the ways people operate both in sub-cultures and broader society inspired the lyrics for the record." It appears as though Blood Runs Cold handed out a two-track promo CD entitled 2023 Demo featuring early(?) versions of both "Residuals" & "Kill Yourself" at FYA Fest in Tampa, Florida back in early January, which doubled as their first show together. "Residuals" B/W "Kill Yourself" is available now on all streaming platforms and Bandcamp. The release was recorded and mixed by Evan Perino at Shellshock Audio and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege. Double-single artwork designed by Lil' D AKA Dillon Perino. Plus, we heard from a little birdy Blood Runs Cold is already planning a more full-length release to drop this upcoming summer! Blood Runs Cold's next live show is scheduled for April 2, 2023 at 7:00pm at Amityville Music Hall in Amityville, New York with Earth Crisis, One King Down, and Age of Apocalypse celebrating 30 years of the Firestorm EP.

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of
