Makes My Blood Dance Announce USA, UK, and Ireland Tour Supporting Debut Album

Leave a comment

Electro-goth fused with disco-metal, New York’s Makes My Blood Dance gear up to intensify stages stateside and across the Atlantic.

New York-based Makes My Blood Dance have dropped their debut full-length #Z3R0 2 LGHT $P33D! via Metropolis Records in early June. The album, now available on CD and digital, with vinyl due before their upcoming tour, marks a formidable statement from the electro-goth and disco-metal hybrid act.

Extending the Outbreak: Tour, Sound, and Impact

After completing a robust U.S. run alongside Powerman 5000 and 12 Stones, followed by support dates with Mickey Avalon, Makes My Blood Dance return in late July to headline their own shows. Mid-August sees them rejoining Powerman 5000 before they launch their UK and Ireland debut as support to Genitorturers in September. Their live reputation for transforming venues into kinetic industrial rock discos underlines their commitment to bridging nightclub energy with metal grit.

#Z3R0 2 LGHT $P33D! propels jagged guitars and pulsating synths into a frenetic collision, layering operatic vocal dynamics against bass-heavy foundations fit for both club and arena contexts. Tracks like an industrial funk reimagining of Macy Gray’s “Lately” — featuring Gray herself — alongside “Heavy Metal Armour,” “Time And A Place,” “Your Little Hand In Mine,” and “Black Summer,” have already together accumulated over two million streams and views, underpinning the album’s momentum.

Cutting Edge Culture Updates, Metropolis, New Music Release

Makes My Blood Dance unveil “Lately (feat. Macy Gray)” single as industrial and soul collide


The collision hits with intent—Makes My Blood Dance return with “Lately (feat. Macy Gray)”, a bold reinterpretation that bridges worlds that were never meant to meet.

A Dark Rebuild of a Soul Classic

Released May 1 via Metropolis Records, the new single flips a familiar foundation into something colder, sharper, and far more volatile. Originally appearing as a sleek disco track on Macy Gray’s 2010 album The Sellout, “Lately” is reimagined here through an industrial lens—pulling the groove into darker territory before snapping it back into focus with tension and control.

Gray’s unmistakable voice doesn’t just revisit the track—it transforms it. Her smoky, textured delivery cuts straight through the mechanical pulse, elevating the reinterpretation into something unpredictable. As the band describes it, this is “two worlds that shouldn’t meet, colliding in the same room.”

A Defining Crossover Moment

This release marks a pivotal moment for Makes My Blood Dance. Bringing a Grammy Award-winning, multi-platinum voice into the industrial and electro-goth space doesn’t dilute the sound—it amplifies it.

Instead of softening the edges, Gray’s presence adds contrast and weight, reinforcing the emotional core while the band reconstructs the track through calculated builds and releases. It’s not nostalgia—it’s reinvention with purpose.

Momentum Builds Toward “Z3r0 2 LGHT $p33d!”

“Lately (feat. Macy Gray)” lands as the band continues a major U.S. tour alongside Powerman 5000 and 12 Stones, running through the end of May. The timing isn’t accidental—it’s a strategic ramp-up toward their debut album, “Z3r0 2 LGHT $p33d!”, arriving June 5 on CD and digital platforms, with vinyl pressing scheduled for August.

The album pulls together a growing arsenal of singles including “Heavy Metal Armour,” “Time And A Place,” “Your Little Hand In Mine,” and “Black Summer,” forming a project that positions the band squarely at the intersection of industrial rock, darkwave, and electronic nightlife.

Produced by Mikal Blue and Bret Mazur, the record is engineered for crossover impact—designed to hit just as hard in a club as it does on a festival stage.

Reprogramming the Dancefloor

Makes My Blood Dance have built their reputation on more than just recordings. Their live performances blur the lines between metal crowds, club culture, and alternative scenes—creating an environment where genres don’t compete, they merge.

This isn’t just performance. It’s recalibration.
