This is Head Like a Hole's first album since 1999's 'Are ya gonna Kiss it or Shoot it: IV'. After a hiatus of 7 years the band was asked to reform for a one off gig, This lead to a new passion and the decision to record Blood Will Out. Recorded at York Street and Mixed by Andrew Buckton at 203 with production by Andrew Buckton and HLAH. A different departure from previous albums with the addition of Andrew Ashton (The Larry Normans) on guitar replacing Tom Watson (Cassette) and the continuation of Mike Franklin-Browne (Pluto) on the drum stool.A lot of the songs had been written by Nigel Regan after the band had split up who would send them to Booga not really thinking anything would come of it. One of those songs went on to become the now classic 'Glory Glory (Hallelujah).
The songs were constructed over a year as band members live in different cities with the actual recording and mixing taking about two weeks.

Below is a link to an interview with Nigel Regan July 2011 on the upcoming release Blood Will Out.

Recorded when we had an idea that everyone would pick a cover and we'd Record it. We did Summer Knights because Andrew Durno was always playing the intro and we thought 'let's get it out of his system' it became a great live track. Wrathchild was a consensus if memory serves me right (which it won't) and Booga Beazley picked 'I'm on Fire' which to this day is a fan favorite and always goes down gangbusters live. It also had HLAH playing on a roof top in Wellington for a video that Brian from Flying Fish production company mad after hearing the track. The irony is that the video was worth about $100,000 (it didn't cost that) while the track was recorded on Reel to Reel 8-Track with only 7 tracks working that only cost us our time.
