BLOOD LIGHTNING (Heavy Metal – USA) – Release new Single/Music Video for the song “Blankets” via Ripple Music #BloodLightning

 

Ripple Music is stoked about this one – a supergroup of epic proportions!

Formed in December 2020, Blood Lightning brings together the talents of Jim Healey (We’re All Gonna Die), vocals; Doug Sherman (GOZU), guitar; Bob Maloney (Worshipper), bass; and J.R. Roach (Sam Black Church), drums.

What began as a 2019 Halloween show playing the entire Black Sabbath Born Again album just for fun has culminated in the release of original material by four veterans of the Boston metal/hardcore community with one thing in mind: Get back to the real essence of heavy metal. No pretense. No subgenres to fit into. Just hard-hitting heavy metal with soul, swagger, and a nod to old school NWOBHM with contemporary firepower.

They teamed up with award-winning producer/engineer, Benny Grotto (Rolling Stones, Aerosmith), and mastering legend, Alan Douches (Motörhead, Mastodon, High On Fire) to record five original songs and one cover over the course 2021 and 2022. They were also honored to be nominated in 2021 and 2022 for Metal Artist of the Year by the Boston Music Awards. The band recently signed with acclaimed Stoner/Doom/Metal label, Ripple Music, and is excited to take the next step in that partnership to bring some new music to the masses.

Filmed April 19th, 2023, at Zuzu’s in Cambridge Mass. by Frank Pino and Shawn Reilly of The Doghouse East, Waltham, MA.
