Where Blood and Fire Bring Rest is the third studio album by American metalcore band Zao on Solid State/Tooth & Nail. It was the first album to feature vocalist Dan Weyandt after the departure of Shawn Jonas along with new bassists/guitarists, Russ Cogdell and Brett Detar. The album contains a sample from the film The Shining at the end of "Lies of Serpents, A River of Tears", as well as a sample from the horror film The Prophecy during the intro to "Ravage Ritual". It is often considered among the greatest metalcore albums ever made.[4][5][6]

The lyrics on Blood & Fire deal with personal issues that vocalist Dan Weyandt was dealing with at the time they were written.[7] The song "To Think Of You Is To Treasure An Absent Memory", deals with the suffering, and untimely deaths of Weyandt's friends and stepbrother.[1][7] "Lies of Serpents" and "Ravage Ritual" both deal with hypocrisy in the Christian church.[1]
