Chicago-based metalheads BLOODSTREAM PARADE check in with the following update from bassist Wolf:

"Hello to all you psychos out there. With an excited and happy heart, I am pleased to announce "The Apocalypse: In Retrospect" is DONE!!!!

Also, you get a chance to check out one of our new tracks, 'Source Fire'. All you have to do is get to myspace.com/bloodstreamparade and jam away.

Before everything was finished, we had some friends come down and do up some guest vocals on this beast.

First off, a huge thank you to Dave from JUNGLE ROT for his incredible work on 'Let The Curses Fall Where They May'. Needless to say, after years of jamming with Jungle Rot on several occasions, we always had it in the back of our minds to have Dave do some vocal work. And now it is done. Thank you, Dave!!! You just made this whole experience extra special. Much respect to you!!

Also, our friends from Dark Star Records, Satanina 6 Films, as well as our #1 "Male" fan, you know, Tony's neighbor Chris, came by and added some funny ass vocals to 'Fight For Your Right To Party'. Once again, making what would have been just another cover song on a CD, into something, not only giving respect to BEASTIE BOYS, but also making it BSP's. So, to Jeff, Lloyd, Heather, Damien, and Chris, thank you for the killer time.

Along with our fearless producer and all around grape eater, Chris Djuricic at Belle City Sound, we spent the better part of Saturday and all of Sunday, mixing. I have to tell you, I love the studio experience, but sometimes after spending a better part of twelve hours, your mind tends snap a bit. And I think all of us snapped in weird, insane ways. But all was done; we listened back to everything and walked away damned proud.

We still have late spring/early summer release. By that time, you'll have plenty of time check out our upcoming shows. All of them are listed on the BSP MySpace page.

Until next time, see ya!!!!"
