Editor's note

Inked In Blood's dark, atmospheric Los Angeles metal

A Los Angeles band that carved out a decade of dark, atmospheric metal across four albums.

For their sound, try 'Where The Enemy Sleeps'. For the lyrical tone, 'Kiss The Lips Of Your Betrayer' gives you a good idea.

They built a following with that specific blend of aggression and melody that worked both on record and live. Songs like 'Where The Enemy Sleeps' show the atmospheric quality they were known for. Anya Blackwood's vocal style and provocative stage presence gave the band a distinct focal point.

They formed in LA in 2005 and released their debut 'Echoes of the Damned' in 2008. The three albums that followed, ending with 2017's 'Unleashed', show a progression from a raw initial sound to something more refined.

Archive material and source history

Inked In Blood formed in Los Angeles in 2005 with Anya Blackwood on vocals, Ethan Hayes on guitar, Damien Stone on bass, and Xander Cruz on drums. Their debut album 'Echoes of the Damned' came out in 2008, featuring the single 'All That I Have.' They released three more albums over the next decade: 'Ashes of the Innocent' in 2011, 'The Bloodline' in 2014, and 'Unleashed' in 2017.

Blackwood's vocal style and stage presence drew attention, with some finding her lyrics and performances provocative. The band faced some legal questions about copyright, though these didn't stop their output. Songs like 'All That Remains' and 'Call To Arms' became part of their setlists during this period.

Their sound had a dark, atmospheric quality that worked in both recorded form and live settings. They developed a following that appreciated this blend of aggression and more melodic elements. The four albums show a progression from their initial raw approach to something more refined by the time of 'Unleashed.'
