Blood Brothers Set A Date For Young Machetes Onslaught

Hardcore act The Blood Brothers sharpened their musical skills while recording their fifth album, Young Machetes, which is scheduled for an October 10 release through V2.

In the two years since the group's last full-length, 2004's anti-George Bush effort, Crimes, the Seattle-based quintet have had plenty to keep them busy. They released a seven-song EP single for Crimes track "Love Rhymes With Hideous Car Wreck" in May.

Members of the band also joined with other artists to release three other albums — two under the name Neon Blonde and an eponymous disc using the moniker Head Wound City.

For Young Machetes, The Blood Brothers went back to veteran producer John Goodmanson (Death Cab For Cutie, Sleater-Kinney), who co-produced Crimes along with the band. They also enlisted the services of Guy Picciotto, the co-vocalist of Washington D.C.'s Fugazi and the producer of recent albums by The Gossip and Blonde Redhead.

Here are the tracks on Young Machetes:
"Set Fire To The Face On Fire”
“We Ride Skeletal Lightning”
