BIOHAZARD, renowned for their aggressive style and socially conscious lyrics, has been a seminal force in the hardcore and metal scenes since their formation in the late 1980s. Their unique blend of hardcore punk, heavy metal, and hip-hop elements has garnered them a dedicated fan base and critical acclaim. BIOHAZARD's signing with BLKIIBLK marks a new chapter in their illustrious career, promising exciting new music and projects.
"What started as three reunion shows of the OG lineup turned into three unstoppable years of kicking ass on stage night after night! Now we’re back with a new record that hits with all the classic BIOHAZARD energy, louder and harder than ever," comments guitarist/vocalist Billy Graziadei.
The band shares their first new music in over a decade with the release of a brand new single entitled 'Forsaken'. A staple of their recent Euro/UK headlining tour and a certified mosh pit favourite, the track offers a first taste of their forthcoming album (TBA). Honouring their old-school roots while pushing forward, 'Forsaken' arrives with an energetic live video directed by Graziadei, filmed on tour as the band debuted the song to packed crowds across Europe.
Bassist/vocalist Evan Seinfeld on the new single:
"We shot this video in Amsterdam, at Melkweg, an iconic venue where BIOHAZARD first made our bones in Europe back in the late '80s and ‘90s. It’s really organic, and a little sample of the energy of our first new album in fifteen years, performed in a live setting. Make sure you’re strapped in and prepare for some real mayhem when our new album drops!”
Musical pioneers in every sense of the word, BIOHAZARD were one of the first bands to seamlessly blend hardcore, heavy metal, punk, and hip hop into an intoxicating genre all their own. After more than a decade away, the Brooklyn, NY band’s OG lineup reunited in 2023 to both fan fervour and critical acclaim, headlining the opening night of the legendary Milwaukee Metal Fest for their first show back. Ghost Cult Magazine said they “explosively unleashed their fury with fortitude and force” with “a superhuman set and an awe-inspiring show.”
The band followed with two sold-out hometown shows in New York City, a late-summer festival run in the UK and Europe, and a fall direct support slot with Megadeth across North America. That was just the start. They returned to Europe and the UK in 2024 for the early summer festival season – including a headlining slot at Download – and made their triumphant return to South America in spring, then returned home to blow out America’s exploding festival circuit.
Their return did more than turn heads; it caused whiplash, and they partnered with BLKIIBLK Records to record and release new music. More incendiary and relentless than ever, the trailblazers have a fresh outlook and revitalised spirit. This is more than a reunion - for bassist/vocalist Evan Seinfeld, guitarist/vocalist Billy Graziadei, guitarist Bobby Hambel, and drummer Danny Schuler, it’s a revitalisation and rebirth.
