Most Precious Blood are in trouble again, reports SMN. The artwork for upcoming album "Merciless" has both U.S. distributor RED and Roadrunner ready to shelve the album.
"We had no idea this would happen this time," swears Justin Brannan (guitarist/co-lyricist). The "Merciless" cover features an authentic looking corpse in an apartment with the mail stacking up. In fact, to ensure the album can be stocked, it will now be released with a reversible cover - the new image will be toned down, but fans will be able to flip over for the original picture once they've purchased it. “It's real life it's someone our age that just dies and no one cares enough to notice."
Such is the
MPB assessment of life today. "We've got World War 3 going on we have no time for poetry and guitar solos. It's back to the old school of hardcore, get in, say what you want to say and get out. More than ever, hardcore should write that the end of the world can come tomorrow, but instead most bands are writing like we have our whole life ahead of us. We wanted to write an album that isn't dumbed down but has short songs with lyrics you can relate to immediately."
