Blind & Crossed

Blind & Crossed formed in the early 2000s with Ethan James on vocals and Alex Reed on guitar. Their debut album 'Unveiled' included the song 'Bias,' which became their most recognized track. They followed it with albums like 'Unbound' and 'Unhinged.'

James's lyrics often addressed social and political themes, which sometimes drew criticism. The band's lineup included other musicians over time, but those two remained central. Songs like 'All Smiles' and 'Dead World' continued in a similar vein of alternative rock with pointed writing.

'Divine' is another track that shows their style, direct guitar work and vocals that don't smooth over the subject matter. They weren't a mainstream fixture, but they had an audience that connected with songs like 'Bias.'
