Mary's Blood (Japanese: メアリーズブラッド , Hepburn: Mearīzu Buraddo) is a Japanese all-female power metal band from Tokyo, formed in 2009 by four former members of Destrose.
After all leaving Destrose on New Year's Eve 2008, vocalist Eye, guitarist Eri, bassist Niboshi (formerly known as "Kayo") and drummer Mari later regrouped and recruited guitarist Chiba to form Mary's Blood in December 2009. The name comes from "Bloody Mary" cocktail. They released their debut single "Save the Queen" on December 20. Their first EP, 0-Zero, was published on June 8, 2011. The single "Last Game" followed on November 28 and placed on Oricon's main chart despite being an independent band. In 2012, Chiba, Niboshi and Eri all left Mary's Blood in quick succession. Another Destrose alumni, Saki, was then recruited as guitarist, and the lineup of Eye, Mari, Saki and bassist Rio was finalized in September.
Mary's Blood performed in Houston, Texas at Anime Matsuri 2013. Their third EP, Azure, was released on July 10 and reached number 17 on the Oricon indies chart. The band signed with major record label Nippon Columbia and released their first album Countdown to Evolution on August 20, 2014. Its song "Marionette" was the ending theme of the TV Kanagawa show Mutoma. They were the opening act for Marty Friedman on September 25.
They performed at 2015's Naon no Yaon festival, a rock festival held by Show-Ya that features only female bands. They also opened for DragonForce in Hong Kong on August 30. The band switched labels to Victor Entertainment, released their second album Bloody Palace on October 7, and began the Invasion of Queen tour on October 17.
Mary's Blood hosted the Grand Cross tour 2016, where they performed with three different acts at each concert. On April 16 they played with thrash metal band Outrage, the following day with singer Nanase Aikawa, and later Show-Ya frontwoman Keiko Terada on May 3. They released their third album Fate on October 26, 2016. It features collaborations with Seikima-II guitarist Luke Takamura, Show-Ya guitarist Miki "Sun-go" Igarashi, Kuroyume bassist Hitoki, and Babymetal producer Yuyoyuppe. The band supported it with the Change the Fate tour that began on October 28, and ended on January 22, 2017 with Sun-go and Hitoki as guests. JPU Records released Bloody Palace and Fate in Europe on August 18, 2017, while Fate (August 29, 2017) and Bloody Palace (October 17, 2017) were released in North America by Sliptrick Records.
