BLOOD opens with the anthemic “Song Of Rebellion,” a song that creeps in, not unlike a JOHN CARPENTER theme, slowly building, a vision of the masses of creatures of night lurking out from the darkness, beasts of all sorts, unnamed, before unseen, as they explode from the blackest corners of the night of the mind. But the song is a scream for the violence man perpetrates toward man to end, to shriek back against that violence and not take part. Be aware of what the real monsters are, who they are, and stop letting them in the door. *(Remember that dream scene in American Werewolf In London – – – yeah, like that.)
