Attack! Attack! – Blood On My Hands

by Leave a Comment

‘Blood On My Hands‘ is the latest single from Welsh rock band Attack! Attack!; it’s an anthemic rock song, and you can most definitely imagine this track being played as the band packs out a sold out arena. Having only formed in 2006, the last five years have seen the band grow and expand greatly, and ‘Blood On My Hands‘ is a fine example of the strength that this band has now come to occupy.

‘Blood On My Hands‘ is most certainly a track that stood out to me massively when I first listened to the band’s ‘The Latest Fashion‘ album back in September; it’s one of the gentler numbers from the album, certainly one of the most memorable however, and when you listen to ‘The Latest Fashion‘ you can’t help but feel that this track stands out.

Extremely well structured, ‘Blood On My Hands‘ makes a massive impression right from the start, with the strong vocal style and quality guitar work here really making the track stand out. The drumming is also extremely powerful here, and as you listen to this track it is made extremely clear that Attack! Attack! is a band with a great amount of instrumental talent and flair.

Attack! Attack! is a band that can at times pack an extremely powerful punch, with ‘Blood On My Hands‘ they show off their lighter side though, showing themselves to be a band with a diverse range, capable of pulling off a variety of different styles and tempos.

Give ‘Blood On My Hands‘ a listen and you will hear a quality UK rock band with a great deal of confidence in its ability.
