Lyrically, Blood For Blood combines the depravity and pain of the world they see outside their door every day with the experiences of their own dead end lives in an outlaw-poetry style that truly affects its listeners in a deep way. "We get letters from dudes in prisons in New York, Boston, Detroit and even Alabama, telling us that our shit (music) gets them through and helps 'em face another day," says guitarist Rob Lind. Like Cash playing his outlaw songs to the inmates decades ago, today's redemption-seeking inmates are turning to the choruses of BLOOD FOR BLOOD for solace in hard times.

I like the music, but lyrically the singer really pisses me off. All he does is whine about growing up poor in Boston and and women who mistreated him.

yeah, but i can ignore a lot of gibbards lyrics because they're buried in the mix. Blood for Blood have a lot of breakdowns where the guy just goes off about how poor he is/was. He's really in your face so it's tough to ignore.

Anyways, i didn't say i don't enjoy them...the dude just pisses me off :lol: .

I'm not johnny deathcab or anything, but I think ben gibbard actually has a pretty interesting way with words.

I believe it's an album cover of sorts.

Yeah, but the font is impossible to make out, and it looks like a Wheatus album or something, not the kind of iconic album cover you would consider for an avatar.
