The Blood Arm
5 September 2006 :: posted by Travis
If you’re anything like me you forgot about The Blood Arm. A while back there was so much hype over their demo… you couldn’t avoid it. Like their home press debut was selling for billions and billions on eBay. And then nothing. Well the band has finally wrapped up their album and it should be coming out soon. The first single “Suspicious Character” will be out September 25th. It’s currently streaming on The Blood Arm’s MySpace.
And here’s a remix of “Suspicious Character.” Not quite as hot as the original… but a nice track. Apologies for the shitty bitrate.

The Blood Arm – “Suspicious Character RMX” (mp3)
The video for “Suspicious Character” is pretty happening too. It’s the kind of video that makes me want to run out and start a rock band. If I wasn’t so damn lazy that is.
Watch: The Blood Arm – “Suspicious Character” (mov)
And, and, and. If you missed The Blood Arms’ dancetastic video for “Say Yes” then you need to check it out. If you didn’t miss it maybe it’s time to re-check it out. One of the best videos ever. EVER.
I find it impossible not to love this band.

I’ve been looking all over for the original version of ‘Suspicious Character’. The band only allows you to download the remix you posted from their Myspace page. Bummer…

this band gets zero respect in their own city. no one cares about them in LA, theyre irrelevant. the singer dudes ego is waaay outta control. their music is yesterday’s flavor. funny, i just realized he looks like Tattoo from Fantasy Island….ha!

Yo yo wait a second
Capt Rock, Nathaniel’s ego ain’t outta control.
Sounds like you’re jealous….
oooooooooooh celoso.

egos and flavors… seems capt. rock is more concerned with image than music.
all i knows is they put out some damn good records.

Er, wow. There’s this big rock, and apparently I LIVE UNDER IT. How did I not know about this band, or the video for “Say Yes?” It’s a sad story, really.
It’s like, All That Jazz meets … Twinkies and Darkness. Love it.

just went to a Blood Arm show in Los Angeles on Friday. They packed a small club, with a line outside of folks trying to get in, and everyone was dancing and singing along. The crowd was chanting for an encore once they were finished. So to the guy who says the Blood Arm have zero respect in their own city, YOU ARE WRONG, my friend.

Ok Guys .. I heard about the buzz building then went to The LA Weekly Detour Street scene and caught The Blood Arm .. annnnnnnnd .. I just may well have never seen anything like it .. This Band is poised to do HUGE things . i mean you either have good taste in music and are a radar for stars and smash songs or you are just someone in the crowd who is connecting with the masses and the energy .. I am of the first caliber and this band is gonna BE HUGE .. yes Nathanial has been over the top but so was Jim Morrison and stars of that elk .. This band I can describe to you all in one word .. are you ready .. ok .. here .. INFECTIOUS !! Ha .. Let The Blood Arm Reign !~!
