Born out of frustration and disgust with the current political, economic and social climate, Piss N’ Blood was formed in August 2007 by former Lost Cause vocalist Ron Anger (the Lost Cause album Forgotten Corners was the first Punk Rock record ever distributed by MCA Records), and lead guitar player Cameron Mosavian. The band also features the ferocious and solid rhythm section of drummer Parker Johnston and bass player Mike Betancourt (both former members of The Politicians). Anger and Mosavian met after Anger placed an ad looking for musicians to start a new band. Anger christened the band Piss N' Blood after watching a World War I documentary on television. A veteran being interviewed about the war said that the soldiers in the trenches were up to their ankles in "piss and blood.” The statement stuck with Anger and he knew he had the name of the band. Anger & Mosavian built a rehearsal studio and worked on writing new songs throughout 2008.

As Piss N' Blood started to gig, live show reviews followed like the review in SLAM! from Marcus Solomon; “These four steady rockers from Orange, CA must have been baptized in unholy water blessed by the notorious Johnny Rotten himself. If the U.S. had created the Sex Pistols first it would have sounded like this; pissed-off, anthemic, and scathingly socially-critical. Everything this band does is truly solid, heavy, and infectious.” Piss N’ Blood has also been compared to the Dead Boys, New York Dolls, and The Stooges. The band has shared the stage with such acts as The Casualties, The Business, Agent Orange, The Dickies, C.J. Ramone, Reagan Youth, Duane Peters, Angry Samoans, D.I., Guttermouth, Channel 3, Chuck Dukowski (Black Flag), Ron Emory (T.S.O.L.), Rikk Agnew (Adolescents), Bermondsey Joyriders, and many more.

Piss N’ Blood released the song Treason as their first single in May 2009 with 24 Hour Machine as the B-side track. The single was well received almost over night with an outstanding review from SugarBuzz Magazine editor Lucky, who called it an "Ace back to back smack in the mouth.” The song Old Boring Rebels which was recorded during the Treason single sessions would later show up on the Gasoline Records compilation The Sounds of Gasoline (Vol. 5) in 2011. Piss N’ Blood’s first full length album F.T.W. was released by the band in November 2011. The album was engineered by Jeff Moleski (Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Hole, Motorhead, etc.) and mastered by Howie Weinberg (Nirvana, The Clash, Ramones, Rancid, etc.) Excellent reviews immediately followed. Maximun RockNRoll stated that the album was “done perfectly!” and that the band had “obviously put in the time to be this good!” Ginger Coyote from Punk Globe called Piss N’ Blood “a tight action packed band” and wrote; “the guys deserve all the accolades they are receiving.”

Piss N' Blood has set out to make a reputation for themselves as the most venomous Rock 'n' Roll band in the world. Every time Ron Anger opens his mouth is proof of that as seen in previous interviews with magazines such as TapouT, Punk Globe, SugarBuzz, Skratch Magazine, and numerous radio interviews. Or just read the lyrics! With nihilist charm the band takes great pride in calling themselves the most relevant and important band in existence. Piss N' Blood is just waiting for everyone else to catch up. Called “charismatic” by their peers, Piss N’ Blood have just begun to conquer/destroy the music landscape that exists today.
