A piercing screech arouses a demanding, throbbing bass line that struts forward at an aching crawl as Concrete Blonde's Bloodletting (Vampire Song) begins. The soft build awakens light, focused strokes of guitar and selective drum hits. From behind, the deep, seductive tones of Johnette Napolitano's impassioned voice enter the stage, stringing us along into her dark tale of primal interactions in the night. All of this is woven into the first minute. From the start the song pounds you into submission and ensures you forget everything but your desire.
