Helsinki, Finland-based hard rock group Santa Cruz have released an official lyric video for the track \u2018Fire Running Through Our Veins\u2019, which can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Santa Cruz issued third full-length studio album Bad Blood Rising<\/em> on November 10th, 2017 (excluding Scandinavia and Japan) through M-Theory Audio. Scandinavian and Japanese release was scheduled for October 6th, 2018 via Sakara Records and Sony Music respectively.<\/p>\n

Guitarist Joonas \u2018Johnny\u2019 Parkkonen issued the following statement: \u201cThis album has probably both the heaviest and the softest Santa Cruz moments on it.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe didn\u2019t intentionally try to come up with something totally different than before, but I guess some of the new influences we\u2019ve picked up along the way can be heard on these songs. At the end of the day, the apple didn\u2019t fall all that far from the tree.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople can still expect the Santa Cruz sound \u2014 the fast guitars and heavy drums are still there, just served with a different sauce.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll in all, we see Bad Blood Rising<\/em> as a \u2018comeback album\u2019. A start of a new era. It\u2019s like what Archie is singing in \u2018River Phoenix\u2019: \u2018We\u2019re going down like River Phoenix, to rise up from the ashes once again.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
