Not only is REBORN IN DEFIANCE, BIOHAZARD's first original lineup album in 18 years, but it also marks the last album recorded by the band before the departure of bassist and co-vocalist Evan Seinfeld. The effort remains a testament to the four founding members (Billy Graziadei, Bobby Hambel, Evan Seinfeld and Danny Schuler) and their unique chemistry.
Having last recorded and toured as the fundamental lineup with the release of STATE OF THE WORLD ADDRESS back in 1994, BIOHAZARD reformed with all four original members back in 2008 to commemorate the band's 20th anniversary. They went back out on the road together over the next two years, during which time inspiration struck.
The legendary Toby Wright (ALICE IN CHAINS, KORN, SEVENDUST, METALLICA) was brought in to produce the 13-track REBORN IN DEFIANCE, which was recorded in Los Angeles.
Two songs from the CD - COME ALIVE and VENGEANCE IS MINE - are available for streaming on the band's Facebook page ("like" required).
BIOHAZARD has sold over five million albums worldwide since its formation in the late eighties in Brooklyn, New York. They achieved international success with their albums URBAN DISCIPLINE on ROADRUNNER RECORDS in 1992 and 1994's STATE OF THE WORLD ADDRESS on WARNER BROTHERS. Over the years, BIOHAZARD has collaborated with ONYX, CYPRESS HILL, AGNOSTIC FRONT, HATEBREED, PANTERA and TYPE O NEGATIVE, among others. The band has continued to tour nationally and internationally, sharing stages with HOUSE OF PAIN, SLAYER, DANZIG, FEAR FACTORY, SEPULTURA and AGNOSTIC FRONT.
