Out for Blood is the debut solo album from guitarist/vocalist Lita Ford, formerly of the band The Runaways.
The original cover art for this album featured Lita standing in front of a spiderweb holding a broken blood-spurting guitar. It was later replaced with a cover of Lita standing in front of a purple background with her guitar.
The album's artwork saw Ford adopting a very heavy metal-inspired image, an image she would maintain for much of the next decade.
