Biohazard

New York hardcore legends Biohazard will enter the studio on January 19 to begin recording a new album for release next summer. This is the first Biohazard recording with all its original members – Evan Seinfeld, Billy Graziadei, Danny Schuler and Bobby Hambel – since 1996’s State Of The World Address.

Bassist/vocalist Evan Seinfeld adds, “Biohazard and our four diverse, yet equal and integral parts converge upon our L.A. Underground Sound studio and resurrect our patented ‘meat grinder’ writing process. Each guy brings something — riffs, lyrics, concepts, songs, melodies, chants — and we get in a room and hammer it out.

“I have personally missed this process over the last years, but having Bobby back in the band has brought back some extra fire that has helped remind all of us what the Brooklyn style is all about. The process is exhausting, humbling, magical and empowering all at the same time. One of the songs we wrote in our first ’round’ of this battle, ‘Vengeance Is Mine’, we just played in all of Europe, London, and Moscow and went over so well live that I am sure we are on the right track.”

Biohazard just finished a 22-month reunion world tour where the band played 100-plus shows on five continents.
