“I Give You My Word” is the song that will dig you out of a hole every time you listen to it. A spirited punk rock mantra focused on one thing only: staying true to oneself.
On a gray day, we all need a reminder that prevents us from doubting ourselves, encouraging us to persevere. “I Give You My Word” serves as that sign — a reminder in the form of a classic punk rock hymn. A mid-tempo bouncing track that evokes the highlights of the 90s genre, reminiscent of bands like The Offspring or Descendents. Blowfuse’s third single from their new album, “The 4th Wall,” is a heartfelt tribute to the efforts we put into our everyday lives.
Nowadays, Blowfuse is one of the most known and active punk rock bands of their country, Spain. The band, hailing from Barcelona, was founded around 2008 and began playing shows under the name Godfarts. While gaining renown as Godfarts they released their first album “Messed Up Minds” in 2010. The band was renamed to Blowfuse in 2013. The same year they released “Into The Spiral”, which was recorded, produced and mixed by Darian Rundall, who also worked with bands like Pennywise, TSOL, Suicidal Tendencies and U.S. Bombs.
Influenced by 80’s and 90’s punk rock waves and the skateboard lifestyle, Blowfuse crafts a style of its own, mixing the aggressiveness of hardcore punk, the catchy melodies of 90’s punk rock, the powerful classic rock riffs, and their acid and paranoiac lyrics.
They have toured with bands like Pennywise, 7 Seconds, and played all over Europe. Sometimes even for a length of more than two months. Blowfuse also played with bands such as Adolescents, Face to Face, Authority Zero, A Wilhelm Scream, Youth Brigade, The Casualties, The Unseen and many others. In 2013 they even played the mainstage at the prominent Resurrection Fest, sharing the stage with Bad Religion, Millencolin and Biohazard.
Being as young as they are, living one of their best moments, working on new projects, touring, filming their peculiar videos… And of course, totally committed to what they loved, and still love, music.
