Album Notes The New Bloods: Osa, Adee (vocals, violin, drums); Cassia (vocals, bass instrument). Portland, Oregon's the New Bloods take their cues from the no-wave minimalism of early-1980s bands like ESG and, appositely, the Bloods, with sproingy bass (always high in the mix), tentative drumming, off-kilter violin(!), and fearlessly unadorned singing. They shift from kittenish twee-pop to raging punk to little arty surprises, like the stark and beautiful a capella track, "Day After Day." The vibe of tribal joy, emotional honesty, and bold experimentation tags the New Bloods as a quintessential Kill Rock Stars act.
