Hardcore pioneers BIOHAZARD have roared back to life with “Forsaken,” their first new single in over ten years. Out now via BLKII BLK Records , the track reaffirms the band's place at the top of the hardcore/metal food chain with a punishing blend of old-school grit and modern energy. [Listen here] and [watch here].

Formed in the late 1980s, BIOHAZARD earned a legendary status with their ferocious mix of hardcore, punk, metal, and hip-hop influences. Now, the original lineup— Billy Graziadei (vocals/guitar), Evan Seinfeld (vocals/bass), Bobby Hambel (lead guitar), and Danny Schuler (drums) —returns not just to celebrate the past, but to dominate the present.

“What started as three reunion shows of the OG lineup turned into three unstoppable years of kicking ass on stage night after night!” says Graziadei. “Now we’re back with a new record that hits with all the classic BIOHAZARD energy, louder and harder than ever.”

A fan favorite during their recent European and UK headlining tour, “Forsaken” is a live-wire anthem that showcases the raw aggression and stage chemistry the band is known for. The release is accompanied by a high-octane live video—directed by Graziadei himself—captured during their performance at Amsterdam’s iconic Melkweg venue.

“We shot this video in Amsterdam, at Melkweg, where BIOHAZARD first made our bones in Europe back in the late '80s and ‘90s,” adds Seinfeld. “It’s really organic, and a little sample of the energy of our first new album in fifteen years, performed in a live setting. Make sure you’re strapped in and prepare for some real mayhem when our new album drops!”

After reuniting in 2023 with a show-stealing performance at Milwaukee Metal Fest , BIOHAZARD quickly reignited a global following. From sold-out hometown shows in NYC to festival runs across the UK, Europe, South America, and direct support slots with Megadeth in North America, the band hasn’t let up since.

More than just a reunion, this is a rebirth. Their signing with BLKII BLK Records has opened a new chapter—one full of renewed power, raw energy, and uncompromising intent. With a new full-length album on the horizon, BIOHAZARD are back, and they’re not pulling punches.
