Long Island metallic hardcore band Pain of Truth have announced their first full-length album, Not Through Blood, due September 8 via DAZE. It features guest vocalists on every song (except the one instrumental track), including Freddy Cricien of Madball, Scott Vogel of Terror, Justice Tripp of Trapped Under Ice/Angel Du$t, Vinnie Caruana of The Movielife, Jay Peta of Mindforce, Brendan Garrone of Incendiary, Shane Moran of Title Fight/Bad Seed, Anthony Didio & Jon Lhaubouet of Vein.fm, Steve Buhl of 200 Stab Wounds, Austin Sparkman of Buried Dreams, Corin of Last Wishes, and Josiah Hoeflinger of Criminal Instinct. The LP follows their 2020 EP No Blame…Just Facts and their 2021 split with Age of Apocalypse.
We’ve got an exclusive transparent blue / yellow vinyl variant, limited to just 300 copies. Pre-order yours now and check out a mock-up of the LP:
Not Through Blood was recorded and mixed Andy Nelson, and it sounds super crisp and heavy, as you can hear on lead single “Actin’ Up,” a tough-as-fuck call to arms that features Steve Buhl of 200 Stab Wounds. Check it out below.
POT, Madball, Vein.fm, and 200 Stab Wounds also all play Code Orange‘s just-announced Code’s World in Pittsburgh on September 30, alongside Gridiron, Wristmeetrazor, Hazing Over, and more.
All POT dates (including This Is Hardcore and Sound & Fury) are listed below.
