The Blood Syndicate

About Me

We are an experimental southern rock/thrash/metal band comprised of six members. We started off just with the idea for the love of music and writing together with the types of metal and rock that we love to play while trying to have somewhat of a positive sound in our lyrics. Though looking at some songs you can see we forgot about being positive. However, we have just recently decided to make everything we write to have a deeper meaning and have a more positive perspective on life in general.

Furthermore: The songs on our myspace were recorded before we had a "full" lineup. We have added members since then which has greatly improved and added to our sound. Look out for better recordings.
