A Match Made In Rock Heaven: ‘My Blood’ By The Amazons And Royal Blood

When The Amazons team up with Royal Blood, you know something epic is about to drop, and ‘My Blood’ doesn’t disappoint. 

This track is a rock powerhouse, blending the fiery energy of The Amazons with the dark, gritty swagger of Royal Blood. Together, they’ve created a single that’s equal parts raw emotion and unrelenting intensity.

This collaboration comes as The Amazons gear up for the release of their new album ‘21st Century Fiction’, set to arrive on May 9th. Described as a record grappling with the complexities of adulthood, the album is already turning heads thanks to the trailblazing nature of ‘My Blood.’ Produced by Mike Kerr of Royal Blood and featuring Ben Thatcher on drums, the track is a full-scale merging of forces, injecting arena-rock heft into The Amazons’ indie-leaning sound.

From the opening bassline, ‘My Blood’ grips you like a vice. Royal Blood bring their signature edge, delivering a deep, pulsating rhythm that feels alive. Layered on top are The Amazons’ anthemic guitars and Matt Thomson’s soaring vocals, which hit like a lightning strike in the track’s massive, arena-ready chorus. It’s the kind of song that demands to be played loud. Preferably with a crowd screaming along.

Lyrically, ‘My Blood’ strikes a balance between vulnerability and strength. The refrain, "I can't give it up 'cause it's in my blood," explores the unshakable drive that comes from believing in something so deeply. ‘My Blood’ is an exploration into why, when you truly believe in something, you can push yourself past the point of pain.

What makes ‘My Blood’ so exciting is how seamlessly both bands’ styles merge. The result? A modern rock anthem that feels timeless, setting a bold tone for The Amazons’ upcoming album.

Whether you’re a die-hard fan of The Amazons or Royal Blood, or just someone who loves unapologetic, hard-hitting rock, ‘My Blood’ is a track you won’t want to miss.
