"Both Face To Face and Strung Out are incredible bands, and they were massive influences on BLITZKID when we started writing songs." Says Blitzkid bassist / vocalist Argyle Goolsby. "We're beyond excited to have this chance to go out and tour with two bands that mean so much to us."

BLITZKID's new album APPARITIONAL will be available in North America on People Like You Records. It will see a digital release on March 29th, followed up with a May 3rd physical release.

BLITZKID is offering people the chance to check out one of their new tracks "Head Over Hills" from APPARITIONAL on their Facebook Page. Visit the band's Facebook page at www.facebook.com/BlitzkidOfficial

Together since 1997, the band (current members: ARGYLE GOOLSBY - bass/vocals, NATHAN BANE - guitar/keys, and RICKO MORTIS - drums) have already released several independent albums, and have toured extensively throughout the US, Europe, and South America. The release of the Apparitional album on People Like You / Century Media Records marks the first time that the band have worked with an international record label.

The unsuspecting world may never be the same again...

On Apparitional the band has returned to the crypts of their punk rock roots, and the results are a collection of songs that will ignite countless moshpits and audience sing-alongs. Fans of the Misfits, old-school AFI, and Alkaline Trio will undoubtedly be hooked by the album's overall direct, take-no prisoners energy.

Also as a bonus to fans in 2011, People Like You / Century Media Records will re-release select titles from the band's back catalog of independently released albums. (Release dates TBC.)

BLITZKID has always aimed to create something meaningful for themselves and others through songs that stand the test of time. And with Apparitional they may have created the best album of their career. And they're only just getting started!
LONG LIVE THE HORROR!!!
