As Blood Runs Black have called it quits according to drummer Hector “Leche” De Santiago. Recently the band finished recording their new album “Ground Zero“, which they managed to crowdfund $25,174 for. However, earlier this year the group were the victims of theft, with losses at the time estimated as being upwards of $20,000. Here’s what Hector said of the decision to call it quits:
“After YEARS of uphill battles, dealing with legalities, politics, getting robbed blind by our ex label, left for dead and getting shelved by the industry… I’m here to to say all things come to an end. As Blood Runs Black was born in my parents basement and has been the biggest part of my life since 2003. She was my daughter. We had a dream and we ran as far as we could with it. Forever in debt and grateful for the band of brothers (past and present) who risked their lives, contributed, and truly risked it all for the love and passion of music. We literally gave and lost everything in this storm. THANKS to all who supported and gave us a chance to share our music with you guys. We were all broken kids and you guys (and gals) gave us a chance to live. THANK YOU!!”
