BRAND OF SACRIFICE – “Lifeblood”, the Revival of Deathcore

April 3, 2021 Nick 0

“Lifeblood” is the second full-length album from BRAND OF SACRIFICE (BOS) and is both a career and genre-defining album.

Nothing short of a masterpiece in the genre and a contender for one of the best heavy albums of the year.
