Avenger of Blood moved operations from San Jose, California to Las Vegas, Nevada to better suit the band personally and professionally. The band found a strong following of fans and the onslaught continued as the band went on to play the 1st installment of Minneapolis Mayhem and various other shows proving to new fans that Avenger of Blood was a force to be reckoned with.
In March 2005, the debut album "Complete Annihilation" was released on now defunct JCM Records, and received excellent reviews worldwide. The album was recorded at Maurotone Studios in Las Vegas between the end of 2004 and into February 2005. Following the release of the album, Avenger of Blood played Northwest Deathfest 2, Minneapolis Mayhem 2, Millennium Music Conference 8, Monsters of Metal and more. Avenger of Blood continued to show fans that they were one of the best Thrash bands around.
After returning from a few shows in the Bay Area, the band went back to Minneapolis to perform at Minneapolis Mayhem 3 and Avenger of Blood went on to record two new songs for the "Speed Kills...Again" compilation CD, which was released on Heavy Artillery Records in May 2007. This recording showed progression and maturity, giving a preview of the things that were to come. Avenger of Blood was signed to Heavy Artillery Records and recorded their second full-length release at Sound Vision Production Studios, and "Death Brigade", was released worldwide on CD and Vinyl in January 2008.
In 2008, a few line-up changes occurred when both Eric Greaney and Shawn Loureiro exited the group for various reasons. New members were brought in to finalize the new lineup. Avenger of Blood managed to get a new song written and recorded for the Relapse Records "Speed N' Spikes 7" series Vol 5 entitled Hell Patrol.
Shortly after the release of the split 7" with Witchaven, Avenger of Blood was put on hold because a break was definitely needed due to unreliable members and their drama as well as the band being very unhappy with the song and the direction the band was headed.
After a 3 year break, the band is reorganizing and preparing for its next assault that will be harsher, angrier, and more insane all around! The band's music has developed into a more death/thrash hybrid as new guitarist Brandon Gulling has taken the lead and rhythm guitar role, Jeremy Hamilton on bass, R.A. Carnage on vocals, while Marc Flores, and Shannon Frye round out the line-up!.
A new EP has been recorded and is called "Spawn of Evil" and is available for download for free. If you'd like a copy, let us know!
