Texas In July announce ‘Bloodwork’, their 4th studio album
Pennsylvania metal band Texas In July has officially announced their highly anticipated new record, Bloodwork, which will be released on September 16th, via Equal Vision Records. The band recently debuted a new song called “Broken Soul” with RevolverMag.com, which is featured on their upcoming fourth studio album.

Following the release of their 2012 self-titled record, Texas In July joined forces with their new vocalist JT Cavey, a longtime fan of the band with a massive YouTube following, and a reputation for vicious screams, a wide range of vocal tones and a seemingly unlimited amount of enthusiasm, passion and creativity.
Following several tours together under the new lineup, Texas In July entered the studio as a four-piece in January of 2014, in their hometown of Lancaster, PA with producers Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland. The resulting album is the band’s most impressive work to date, offering their most cohesive and innovative instrumentations and most dynamic vocal offerings – including a touch of clean vocals for the first time ever, in the seven year existence of the band. Additionally, Cavey displays a broad mix of screams, unique vocal patterns, and even an aggressive spoken word interlude. The new album also features a special guest spot from Miss May I vocalist Levi Benton on “The Void.”
“I think this album shows us at our most extremes,” says Chris Davis. “It has some of our heaviest and most aggressive moments to date and also our most melodic and mellow sections as well. It was all about pushing ourselves to extend our boundaries.”
Texas In July has toured nearly non-stop over the past four years including countless North American and UK/European runs, and ventures to China, Australia, Thailand, Singapore, Japan and more with bands like August Burns Red, Of Mice & Men, We Came As Romans, Silverstein, Unearth, letlive., Miss May I, The Devil Wears Prada, Every Time I Die. Their relentless tour schedule continues in 2014 with their current run with IWRESTLEDABEARONCE in Europe, which will be followed by a U.S. tour that will be announced soon.
