The four members of Blameshift have been blazing their independent path across the nation over the better part of 5 years, logging well over 150,000 miles of touring terrain. During that time the band could easily have taught a collegiate level course on band survival. With a high powered list of sponsors, their music as a full time job and a tour bus, (a literal bus), powered by vegetable oil, the band headed across the country to Los Angles in the late summer 2010 to record with Erik Ron, (VersaEmerge, Good Charlotte, Panic at the Disco). What resulted was the full commercially driven sound that Blameshift has been envisioning since their inception.

The album, The Black Rose, was fully funded by the bands loyal fans through a site called kickstarter.com. In early FEB 2011 the band decided to return the favor with a free EP download in exchange for a facebook "like." Over 75 related music media outlets supported the bands giveaway, landing them thousands of new facebook "likes" and spreading the music further than they thought possible.

Soon after the release the band shot a music video with director Jay Sansone for their single "Ghost" off the Black Rose. As timing would have it Hot Topic coined the band Unsigned Band of the Month for August 2011 along with premiering the new music video. Within a matter of days the video had nearly 8000 hits as sites like BlankTV begans pushing it as well. As "Ghost" became ever so popular it began climbing the charts into the top 10 at both alternative addiction radio & Ourstage.com Rock charts.

After just returning from a month long tour around the states, MTV featured two of the bands songs on MTV's "The Real World." Blameshift is back on the road for their fall tour, Zombies Die! Rock Survives Tour! Go see them live.
