Hardcore legends BIOHAZARD have announced a brand new album titled Divided We Fall, set for release 17 October via BLKIIBLK. Their first studio album in over a decade, the album delivers a blistering statement of unity in chaos. To celebrate the announcement, BIOHAZARD has released a new single, ‘F**k the System’.
Vocalist and guitarist Billy Graziadei shared on the single: "'F**k the System' is BIOHAZARD calling it like it is. The powers that be have us at odds and beefin' with each other while they sit back and cash in. It’s no accident the world’s burnin' in front of our eyes. It’s all divide and control - while they keep us divided by politics, class, race, all of it, and have us out here fighting each other, they’re pulling the strings. 'F**k the System' is our war cry about the state of the world with no sugarcoated bullshit."
Produced, mixed, and mastered by Matt Hyde (Slayer, Hatebreed, Deftones), Divided We Fall captures BIOHAZARD at their most raw, relentless, and unifying. The album blends the band’s unmistakable fusion of hardcore, metal, and streetwise groove with a sharpened focus on today’s fractured world - delivering a powerful reminder of why BIOHAZARD remains one of the most vital and influential forces in heavy music.
Speaking on the new record, guitarist Bobby Hambel shared:"We are really excited to finally have the classic BIOHAZARD lineup back together in the studio. This album has been a long time coming, and the record is straight from our hearts - we can’t wait for everybody to hear it, and to head out and play these new songs live. See you out there!"
Recording sessions took place at Shorefire Recording Studios (Long Branch, NJ) and The Hydeaway (Van Nuys, CA), with engineering by Joseph DeMaio and additional recording by Matt Hyde. Guitar and production tech duties were handled by Phil Caivano.
Set for release via BLKIIBLK, Divided We Fall marks a bold new chapter in BIOHAZARD’s storied career - a career that began in the late ’80s and has been defined by aggressive sound, socially conscious lyrics, and a steadfast commitment to their roots.
