Modern Life Is War have unleashed “Bloodsport,” the third single from their upcoming record Life On The Moon. It’s been over a decade since the Iowa hardcore legends last delivered a full-length, and this latest track proves their fire still burns.

It’s a fitting nod for a band whose big break came on the 1998 Ozzfest. Back then, Snot left their mark with wild stage antics — none more infamous than the night late frontman Lynn Strait burst out of a giant toilet prop (borrowed from Limp Bizkit) completely naked, leading a woman on a leash and earning himself an arrest for indecent…
