There's something pretty special about seeing an album reach Number 1 in the UK charts, and over the years we've been lucky enough to play a part in quite a few of those moments. Of course, it's not all about Number Ones. We love championing emerging artists, and making records for people we just think are f*cking cool, but we'd be lying if we said working on a chart-topper didn't feel pretty good.This week, Jamie T added another to the list, taking Ghosts (100 Days of Morning) straight to Numbe

It's been a pretty good run for guitar music at Blood Records lately. From familiar favourites to some of the biggest names in alternative rock, we've had no shortage of reasons to turn the volume up.And we're keeping things going with the return of Royal Blood. Mike Kerr and Ben Thatcher are back with their fifth studio album, Dead Company, and we're delighted to be working with the Brighton duo for a fourth time. Our exclusive edition comes pressed on clear vinyl with black and red splatter, l

It's fair to say we're big fans of Fontaines D.C. We've been working with the Dublin band for a few years now, and watching them grow into one of the biggest bands of recent years has been pretty special. Fresh from headlining Reading & Leeds this summer, they're showing no signs of slowing down.Our latest collaboration marks our fourth release together, this time for their fifth studio album, Dopamine Chamber. Following the huge success of 2024's Romance, the new record sees the band pushin

We recently caught up with Fast Company - the New York-based publication covering business, innovation and creativity - to talk all things Blood Records. From how our records are made to why we're always looking for new ways to push the boundaries of vinyl.The team also headed behind the scenes at Press On Vinyl, where they got a closer look at the pressing process, the people behind it, and some of the techniques that go into bringing our records to life.It's a really nice look at what goes on

We've worked with some incredible artists over the years, but this one was a first for us. Our very first video game soundtrack (on Blood Records), created in collaboration with Rockstar Games, and for one of the biggest gaming franchises in the world.Grand Theft Auto has been a huge part of gaming culture for decades, with music playing an equally important role throughout the series. From its iconic radio stations to the soundtracks that accompany its stories, music has always been central to

It's been a pretty good few weeks for pop music at Blood Records. We've had a run of releases from some of our favourite artists, and judging by how quickly they've sold out, we're not the only ones enjoying it.Leading the charge was ADÉLA, whose debut album PRIMA has been one of the most exciting pop releases of the year. With tracks like KGB and Red Bottoms, she's quickly made a name for herself with a sound that's bold, unapologetic and full of personality. For our exclusive edition, we press

We've always had a soft spot for a bit of country music, so announcing three country-inspired releases in quick succession felt rather fitting.First up, Brandon Flowers. Best known as the frontman of The Killers, he's taken a detour into Nashville for his first solo album in over a decade. Recorded at the legendary RCA Studio A, THRASHER draws on country and Americana influences, with pedal steel and harmonica helping bring it to life. Our exclusive edition comes pressed on transparent orange ru

It's been another big few months for pop at Blood Records, and things have been looking particularly bright lately. From rising stars to familiar favourites, we've been busy giving some pretty special releases our own spin.Leading the charge is Zara Larsson, whose Midnight Sun: Girls Trip received one of our most colourful pressings yet. Featuring the original album alongside ten reimagined tracks, including collaborations with PinkPantheress, Shakira, Tyla and Robyn, the special edition came pr

It's not every day you get to work with some of the biggest names in music history. But it's been a pretty special time for Blood Records, with two artists who helped shape rock 'n' roll returning to our turntables.We've recently announced our second collaboration with The Rolling Stones, following our sold-out zoetrope edition of Hackney Diamonds back in 2023. This time, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood return with Foreign Tongues, a new 14-track album pressed exclusively across two
