Blood Divisions Releasing Self-Titled Digital EP

Metal Blade Records has set an August 28 release date for the digital EP from Blood Divisions - a band featuring Chris Jericho, Dave Austin, Ralph Santola, Terry Butler, Greg Gall, Bill Owen, John Mahoney and Ben Meyer.

The digital EP features two tracks, the first being a cover of the Nasty Savage track "The Morgue" and the second is a cover version of the Scorpions classic "Top of the Bill."

A portion of the proceeds from sales of the self-titled EP will benefit Rock & Rescue, a charity helmed by producer Jay Ruston as well as the Warren County Tennessee Humane Society.

Vocalist Chris Jericho comments: "Blood Division is an all star collection of some of the most talented musicians to ever come from the legendary southern Florida metal scene. Being a HUGE fan of all of these musicians and their legendary bands, especially Nasty Savage, when David Austin himself asked me to lay down the vocals, I responded immediately, 'YES! What songs do you want me to sing and how many studded leather gauntlets can I wear?' I'm so honored and proud to be a part of the project and very excited with the results. Trust me, it's going to tear all of your fuckin' heads off, in the best possible way!"
