October 30th, 2026 – Los-Angeles – based industrial / metal band, SKUMLOVE, recently announced their signing to Candlepower Records – a subsidiary of Virgin Music. On Halloween, their first single under Candlepower drops – a cover of “Blood And Roses” by the legendary band, THE SMITHEREENS.Says founding member, Skum Love: “The original song really touched my soul. The struggle between mental health and love plays a big part in many of our lives. Pat DiNizio was truly one of the world’s best songwriters. I knew I wanted to do my own version of this song and it took many years to figure out the ideas that were in my head. I did not want to take away what he created, but add upon it without losing the message. I think we did it justice and opened the song to a new generation.” “Blood And Roses was produced & engineered by Kevin Kipnis at BFOK Studios. Drums recorded at Saints in LA studio Co-produced by Michael Ciravolo. Mastering was completed by Grammy-nominated engineer Maor Appelbaum in Los Angeles. “Blood And Roses” will be available on all major digital outlets on October 31st! Follow & Support SKUMLOVE:
