Band two under the spotlight for Heat 1 in Swansea is BackIVBlood.
1. Let’s start with introductions. Who is who and what does each person do in the band?
So we're actually a three piece, our members of BackIVBlood consist of Deri - (Vocal & Guitar ) / Dan ( Drums ) / Alex ( Bassist )
2. Where are you from and how long have you been together?
We're all from South Wales & we've been a band just over a year & a half now. We've all known each other a long time. Deri & Dan started to get together not long after the pandemic to have a jam. Decided to try & write some music. Once we did, we decided we needed to get out there & play live. Luckily, not long after, we got Alex on board & started work on our set straight away.
3. Describe your music in five words.

Never even saw it coming ( Blindsided )
4. What prompted you to apply to be part of Metal to the Masses – South Wales?
As we're a fairly new band, we're always looking for some exposure & we'd love to get on that stage at bloodstock. Other than that, we're always looking for the opportunity to get in front of a crowd.
5. If you have played Metal to the Masses before, tell us about your previous experiences and importantly, why you’ve returned!
We have actually played it once before. To tell the truth, it was actually our first show as BackIVBlood, on top of that we suffered technical difficulties, so it didn't go so well for us. We powered through though & just took ourselves back, eliminated what was causing the issues & perfected our set. Since then, we've played multiple shows from London up to Leeds. We're looking forward to some redemption.
6. Bloodstock is a big festival – have you attended the festival in the past? If so, what would you say are the best things about the weekend?
Unfortunately none of us have had the chance to attend the festival in the past but to do so for the first time & also play a stage would be something crazy
7. Apart from Metal to the Masses, what do you have planned for 2024?
For the rest of 2024 we're going to be all around the place. We've currently got shows booked for Bristol, Birmingham & Whitehaven but hopefully more to follow.
8. What can we expect from you in your heat?
You can expect a lot of energy on that stage, a variety of a heavy and diverse setlist. A high intensity performance. A sound that'll make you mosh.
9. And what are you expecting in your heat and journey through the competition?
We're expecting a memorable experience. Crazy, energetic crowds. Hopefully make some new fans along the way. We're also looking to learn from this experience, get the feedback that we can & build off it.
10. Finally, where can people find details of the band – promote your socials here!
We got our own website, which shows all our upcoming shows, which is - BackIVBlood.com. We're also on all streaming services. YouTube, Spotify etc. Check us out as we'll be releasing new music very soon.
