"Cold Blood" is a Donnie Purnell and Taylor Rhodes song from Blow My Fuse, the fourth album by American hard rockers Kix, which Atlantic released on September 6, 1988. Tom Werman produced it with Duane Baron and John Purdell, and Baron and Purdell mixed it, with Baron engineering too.
Steve Whiteman sings lead, Brian Forsythe and Ronnie Younkins play guitars, Purnell handles bass and keyboards and Jimmy Chalfant drums, with those two adding backing vocals. The record's big moment came elsewhere, in the power ballad "Don't Close Your Eyes", the band's only hit, which went to No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.
