Purple Reign in Blood is the third album released by the pop punk band Fenix TX. The album is a live recording and it marks their first performance together in almost four years.

Release

"Katie W." and "Phoebe Cates" were made available for streaming on November 2, 2005.[2] On the same day, it was announced that Prince was going to sue the band in regards to the album artwork.[3] The album was released on November 8 through Adrenaline.[4] From November 18 onwards, the version with the original artwork was replaced with a version with altered artwork.[3]

The show's encore was cut from the CD, which is evident as the end of the CD fades out while the crowd chants the phrase "One more song!".
