Makes My Blood Dance (MMBD) are an electrifying hybrid of electro, industrial, dark rock and metal, already known for their high‑voltage live performances and a run of singles accompanied by cinematic videos.
The New York–based outfit signed to Metropolis Records in late 2025 and have now released "Black Summer" as their second single for the label, taken from their forthcoming debut full‑length (further details to be announced). The striking track – and soon‑to‑arrive visual counterpart – expands the band's dark theatrical universe in a way that feels equal parts midnight cinema and modern gothic seduction. It follows December's single "Your Little Hand In Mine".
Fresh from a successful run of US Midwest dates with Smile Empty Soul and Primer 55, Makes My Blood Dance are currently headlining their own No Love Without Blood Tour across the Southeast, before joining Powerman 5000 and 12 Stones for a full national tour throughout April and May (see below).
Firmly positioning the band within today's industrial and heavy electronic music landscape, this touring cycle marks a defining moment as they build towards their debut album. Long adept at drawing metal crowds, club‑goers and alternative music fans into the same room, their spring schedule sees them moving with unbroken momentum.
Standing at the crossroads of industrial rock, darkwave and electronic nightlife, Makes My Blood Dance are shaping a modern alternative culture rooted in movement, fashion and an immersive live experience. Their performances transform introspective scenes into high‑energy audiences through relentless touring and spectacular stagecraft. These shows feel less like concerts and more like temporary worlds – spaces where heavy music, dance‑floor energy and underground style coexist without permission. Link
