Re: Bullet For My Valentine

I've listened to this band on and off. They fell off my radar probably more than a few months ago. But I have a few favorites that I listen to from time to time:




The Fever release wasn't all too bad either, I liked a few songs from it, but could've been better as well.

Re: Bullet For My Valentine

I really like this band. I remember when Poison came out, I was not overly impressed with that album.......even though the critics were giving it high ratings. But when Scream, Aim, Fire came out.......I loved it! They definitely matured into better songwriters :)

Take It Out On Me



5:50 of awesome riffage!

Re: Bullet For My Valentine

@Riff: Very nice :grinthumb I think the Poison album is their top album imo. With Scream Aim Fire following 2nd. And Fever in 3rd. Tears Don't Fall was probably the first song I heard from them, so I rank Poison pretty high for that as well.

Re: Bullet For My Valentine

Poison is good but it seemed in some patches rather repetitive. Maybe its just me.

Re: Bullet For My Valentine

I agree with you on that actually. Though, I don't really think too much of it, since it was their first release as a band, so I give them a bit of slack for it. But you're right, the album is pretty repetitive.

Re: Bullet For My Valentine

Scream Aim And Fire is a JAM!!

Like the Offspring...they have melodies that harken back to a swedish metal band I loved from the 80's called Heavy Load!

In BFMV's case they would be a combination of Heavy Load, Offspring and Metallica IMO :heheh: :grinthumb

Re: Bullet For My Valentine

One of the better metalcore bands around, IMO.
They have got quite a bit more spotlight than quite a lot of other metalcore bands and I think its evident due to some of the variety that they provide.
Matthew Tuck has great vocals! Jumping from a harsh scream to a heartfelt murmur.
Favourite album is Scream Aim Fire! Just fantastic!! :D



Oh!

2, 3, 4

Helpless,
My eyes are bleeding from the fear that's inside,
You sealed your demise when you took what was mine,
Don't try to stop me from avenging this world,
No voice to be heard

Waking The Demon,
Where'd you run to?
Walk in the shadows,
Watch the blood flow,
There's not much longer, so don't try and fight,
Your bodie's weakening, Walk to the light,
Those painful times so alone so ashamed,
I'm not coming back there's nothing to gain

Caution,
There's just no limits to the boundaries you push
I warned you but still you just f**k with my mind,
There's no escape from this rage that I feel,
Nothing is real,

Waking The Demon,
Where'd you run to?
Walk in the shadows,
Watch the blood flow,
There's not much longer, so don't try and fight,
Your bodies weakening, Walk to the light,
Those painful times so alone so ashamed,
I'm not coming back there's nothing to gain

Breathe on me
Don't wake me from this slumber.
Stay With me
Possession taking over

Breathe on me
Don't wake me from this slumber.
Stay With me
Possession taking over

Whoa!
Tread!

Breathe for me
Don't wake me from this slumber.
Stay With me
Possession taking over

Waking The Demon!

Re: Bullet For My Valentine

Fever



It's hot as hell in here
Everybody wants to lose control
The music's turned up loud, the lights
We'll turn them low

Wound up like a hurricane
And my head's about to explode
Can't wait to self-destruct
Can't wait to let it go

(Woah-oh)She hits the stage
(Woah-oh)She makes me crave
So come and get my money(Woah-oh-oh-oh)

I can feel your fever, taking over
Can you see your fever, taking over me
I can feel your fever, taking over
Got a dirty feeling, and you're the remedy

Woah Come on!

So I'm looking for a spark
I've got a body to re-ignite
Don't worry you won't get burned
So don't don't put up a fight

Push hard to breaking point
And I'm ready to overload
No limits and no regrets
It's time to sell my soul

(Woah-oh)You're all I want
(Woah-oh)You're all I need
So come and take my money(Woah-oh-oh-oh)

I can feel your fever, taking over
Can you see your fever, taking over me
I can feel your fever, taking over
Got a dirty feeling, and you're the remedy
And you're the remedy

Come here you naughty girl you're such a tease
You look so beautiful down on your knees
Keep on those high heel shoes rip off all your clothes
You smell so ****ing good it makes me lose control!

Losing control! (You're all I want)
Selling my soul! (You're all I need)
Losing control! (You're all I want)
I can't let you go!
Woah-oh-oh-oh

I can feel your fever, taking over
Can you see your fever, taking over me
I can feel your fever, taking over
Got a dirty feeling, and you're the remedy
And you're the remedy
You are the remedy!
