Life's Blood

Life's Blood was a hardcore punk band formed by four first year college students in New York City in 1987. It consisted of Adam Nathanson on guitars, Neil Burke on bass, John Kriksciun on drums, and on vocals, Combined Effort all ages shows promoter and fanzine editor Jason O'Toole. They were part of the scene that grew out of CBGB's Sunday matinees and Some Records. Life's Blood gained a loyal following with their aggressive sound that blended East Coast hardcore-punk with melodic Oi!, as well as their biting, intelligent lyrics.

Life's Blood performed with bands as diverse as Agnostic Front, Sheer Terror, Beyond, Judge, Project X, and Soulside before breaking up little more than a year later. Nathanson would go on to form Born Against out of its ashes with Sam McPheeters on vocals. Kriksciun would continue drumming for Collapse and Burn, among many other acts. Burke, an artist who works in visual and audio mediums would go on to many important bands, including Born Against, Sinking Body and Men's Recovery Project. In 1992, O'Toole performed and recorded with Factory with past and future members of Intent, Hail Mary, Brown Cuts Neighbors and Limp Wrist. In 2011, O'Toole sang for My Rifle on a self-titled EP backed by former members of Our Gang, Hell No, and Absolution, on Wardance Records. This may be the only punk record to receive a glowing review from Maximumrocknroll despite the vocalist's twenty years in law enforcement.

Life's Blood

by: Internal Affairs

Out of my mind seeing the signs
My internal hatred explodes with time
A time bomb ticking
Choking and kicking
I'm in it to win it
And don't forget it
Look at this place
See the look on my face
I can't stand you, you fuckin disgrace
My life's blood drained from me
My life's blood drained from me
My soul, beaten out of me
Can't be taken from my heart
Even when shit is falling apart
