"New Blood," released on this day in 1995, includes two of Blood on the Saddle's most popular songs. Do you know what they are?

"Blood on the Saddle fuses bluegrass with hardcore to create a high energy fusion, where rock is doing something new and a half twist different from what has gone before." - SPIN Magazine - December 1985

"The Music Machine. Blood on the Saddle is galloping through one of their most hair-raising songs, 'Car Mechanic Blues.' Greg thrashes this guitar T&A Robert Johnson-inspired killer-thang around so fast and furious you almost fall off the floor."

"Our band is not country punk, cowpunk, punkabilly, cowbilly, rawhide rockabilly, ...we are no kind of 'billy' ....And we're not influenced at all, any shape or form, by heavy metal. What we do is thrash, with country, bluegrass themes." - Greg Davis - October 1984 - LA Weekly
