Blood for Blood defines themselves as a white trash hardcore punk band from Charlestown, Massachusetts, USA. The band formed in 1995. They are regarded as an extremely nihilistic and aggressive band.

The bands iconic logo of a sketchy skull and crossbones with a teardrop of blood was drawn by Sean Bonner in 1997 when the band was signed to Victory Records. The logo has provided a very popular tattoo design for any number of hardcore punk fans.

In mid-2006, Blood for Blood's song "Ain't Like You (Wasted Youth II)" was used as backing music for a trailer for the pro-war documentary, "Young Americans", made by Pat Dollard and U.S. Marines in Iraq. The trailer featured numerous images of anti-war protesters and icons, at which the song's aggressive message seemed targeted. It is unclear whether Pat Dollard had sought permission from the band for the use of the song; likely not, since Rob Lind's side-project band, Ramallah, has a very anti-war attitude. Members of the band were not consulted by Pat Dollard as to the use of their product in his project, and that quite possibly puts Dollard in a actionable position as licensed and copyrighted material must be discussed with producers of said content before content is transferred to another medium. The band had eschewed politics while a performing entity and would not agree to something like this unless an amicable consensus had been reached between all members, especially concerning presentation and marketing of their likenesses and public image.
