BLOOD FEAST “Outbreak“ (taken from ’Infinite Evolution’ LP, 2024)

Taken from their upcoming album “Infinite Evolution“ out July 12, 2024 on CD, LP, tape, digital & t-shirt. *Order here: feast BLOOD FEAST has been transformed yet again. Nearly five years in the making, with many twists and turns along the way, the band’s fourth album, Infinite Evolution, will see international release via HELLS HEADBANGERS on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats Continuing on from 2017’s The Future State Of Wicked, the band keeps the thrash vicious, as one would expect. Yet, this time out, the boundaries are expanded. There have been changes in the ranks, as original guitarist Adam Tranquilli has now added lead vocal duties, and co-guitarist/producer CJ Scioscia has taken on more of the songwriting. Drummer Adam Kieffer remains (he came onboard for the band’s 2019 EP Chopped, Sliced & Diced), while bassist extraordinaire Mike LePond of Symphony X lent his impressive talents on the low end. Songs such as “Outbreak,“ “Never Will I Die,“ and “Of Hell“ retain the BLOOD FEASTtradition of fast and furious. However, the limits are pushed out a bit further into a tech/prog direction on “Eye Of Glass“ and album closer “The Chosen.“ With a production straddling the line between modern and old school, Infinite Evolution shows diversity, yet without sacrificing the speed or heaviness. With the lineup now solidified by the addition of Dave Kramer on bass, BLOOD FEAST is itching to get these songs aired in public. New adventures await, and new frontiers are ready to be conquered. Infinite Evolution is the key to the journey.
