Release Notes:

"Half of this album is brutal, and the other half... You don't even know where
it's coming from, yet it's all a part of the same album," says bassist Kyle
Sanders, whose previous credits include the industrial-metal trailblazers Skrew,
as well as a more recent tenure with Medication. "The dynamics of this band are
just unreal--It never feels like it's too fast or too slow, but there's still a
range that goes from one extreme to the other, without ever compromising
either."

It was that bold disregard for genre constraints--and their incendiary live
show--that attracted Mudvayne frontman Chad Gray to bloodsimple, making them the
first release on his Bullygoat Records imprint of Warner Bros. Records.
"bloodsimple opened for Mudvayne in Philadelphia, and it didn't take long for me
to understand that they have the songs, energy, ability and live performance
needed to captivate an audience."

"This is the band I've always wanted to be in," echoes drummer Chris Hamilton, a
former member of Downset and Medication who's also recorded for such scalding
acts as Crisis and My Ruin. "bloodsimple is a collective, and everybody brings
something really strong to the table, there’s no weak link in this band. Most of
us have done this before as a profession, and we wanted this one to be the real
one for the long haul."

Enjoy.
