My Heart Bleeds the Darkest Blood is a song from the metalcore band Shai Hulud off of their debut album Hearts Once Nourished with Hope and Compassion. It is considered one of their most recognizable song, and in almost every show it's played. The song was written in one night. The opening guitar riff was a direct result of the sadness everyone felt due to Oliver Chapoy's mother passing away.

The sample played before the song starts (on Solely Concentrating on the Negative Aspects of Life) is Bill Murray saying "It's gonna be cold. It's gonna be gray. And it's gonna last you for the rest of your life." in Groundhog Day. (1993)

A music video was made for the song in 1997. [1]

Brian Fair of Overcast appears in the video while moshing on the circle pit.
