Transviolet redefine epic with dance-infused pop belter "Bloodstream"

26 August 2015, 15:00 | Written by Laurence Day

L.A.'s Transviolet have shared their second track "Bloodstream", and it's more proof that the outfit have got big things ahead of them.

Their debut track "Girls Your Age" appeared last month to massive applause.

Like Halsey's easy-on-the-ears pop, "Bloodstream" fuses chunky synths and dubstep-plod beats with dreamy vocal lines. It's got a clear dance edge that'll keep you shimmying, but with the cinematic lurches and climactic drops, it's easy to imagine this playing over the end of the world.

Speaking about the track, the band say: "being in love is knowing someone could completely destroy you. It’s a reckless vulnerability."

Listen to "Bloodstream" below. The band's North American dates with Mikky Ekko can be found afterwards.
