Chris Jericho and Terry Bulter among artists announced for metal supergroup - EP out later this month

Fozzy frontman Chris Jericho, Obituary bassist Terry Butler and Nasty Savage guitarist Dave Austin are among the artists featuring in new supergroup Blood Divisions.

They’ll release their self-titled digital covers EP on August 28 via Metal Blade Records, with a portion of the proceeds going towards the Rock & Rescue charity.

Jericho says: “Blood Divisions is an all-star collection of some of the most talented musicians to ever come from the legendary southern Florida metal scene.

“I’m so honoured and proud to be a part of the project and very excited with the results. Trust me, it’s going to tear all of your fuckin’ heads off, in the best possible way.”
