Originally fronted by twin femme vocalists Lizzi Bougatsos (Gang Gang Dance) & celebrated visual artist Rita Ackermann, for what would be the band's final foray the duo enlisted Anders Nilsson (Aorta), Matt Heyner (NNCK), Dave Nuss (NNCK) & Brian DeGraw (Gang Gang Dance, Cranium).

Angelblood played decidedly out of bounds & ahead of the curve. It was a risky proposition to begin with but goddamn if this isn't great music.
