BIOHAZARD Declares War on Nostalgia with 'Divided We Fall'

In a recent raw and unfiltered chat with Remzi "Jam Man" Yates of Rocking With Jam Man, BIOHAZARD's bassist/vocalist Evan Seinfeld opened up about the band's thunderous new album, "Divided We Fall," born from a relentless two-year world tour. Contrary to the fears of self-replication that often plague bands reuniting after a long hiatus, Seinfeld boldly declared, "No, absolutely not. We were intentionally copying ourselves." With the guiding hand of producer Matt Hyde, the band embraced their legacy, diving headfirst into a sonic resurgence that echoes their iconic sound.

Seinfeld reflected on the sheer adrenaline of the last couple of years, sharing tales of blood, sweat, and metal as they tore through 150 shows across continents, sharing stages with titans like MEGADETH, IRON MAIDEN, and METALLICA. "It was fucking awesome," he proclaimed, recounting how they resurrected the fiery spirit of their original lineup by exclusively performing tracks from their foundational years. "This was the sweet spot of BIOHAZARD," he asserted, a testament to the band’s undying bond with their roots.

Meanwhile, guitarist/vocalist Billy Graziadei chimed in during an appearance on the Vulgar Display Of Podcast, asserting that the record encapsulated their essence perfectly. With Hyde at the helm, he was reminded to channel the raw energy of their 1993 selves rather than the polished version of today’s musicians. "It’s like telling Mike Tyson to forget everything he learned and just be that dude from the '80s," Graziadei mused, revealing the initial shock of being asked to regress musically but ultimately acknowledging that the producer’s vision sparked a fire they hadn’t felt in years.

"I went in like it was 1993 and delivered what I needed to deliver," he stated, resonating with fans of old while shaking off the cobwebs of modernity. Graziadei emphasized that bands often mistakenly claim they’re returning to their roots, when really, the roots are just buried under layers of fluff. "Matt helped us clear away the bullshit," he said, igniting a revitalization that reveals the true BIOHAZARD spirit, the very essence that has kept their fans in a chokehold for decades.

In an industry rife with self-indulgent evolution, BIOHAZARD's unabashedly nostalgic approach with "Divided We Fall" is a defiant middle finger to the mainstream. As Seinfeld and Graziadei gear up for the album's full launch, they stand united, ready to unleash their most potent weapon yet: authenticity. Buckle up, metalheads—BIOHAZARD is back, and they mean business.
