Seen them live, they can play live very well. The lyrics seem very fabricated I wouldn't even be suprised if they don't write their own lyrics. Other that that I think they have a lot of talent and a good sound...could use overall improvement for sure.

as far as im concerned some bands get unfairly lumped into categories they dont belong to..you can always hear when a band has that thrash influence, for example, hatebreed, shadows fall, etc. bfmv are actually a f***en awesome band with infectious riffs and vocal harmonies. saw them in a small melbourne club couple years back they kicked ass. good song btw.

Since I have friends who have already posted their love for the bullet boys I will keep this short, sweet and to the point. Hopefully they didn't "borrow" anything from legendary metal Gods this time around.

Mr. FearTheReaper...If They Are A Heavy Metal Band Then They Could Be Heavier...It's Called METALundergrond For A Reason. They Don't Have To Sound Like Suicide Silence But They Could Sound Like Heavier Version Of Themselves.

their biggest downfall was probably their name, its misleading and makes them sound like an emo band.

they should change their name to 'bullet for my mother-in-law' lol

Yeah the name put me off from the start I must say. I'd have taken them more seriously if they called themselves Sheep Shaggers With Attitude. But I really can't stand the music either. If I see that Waking The Demon video one more time I'm gonna sell my tv. Plus I saw 'em live and never want to again. Maybe they just had an off night considering what everyone else seems to say about their performances, but I'm not taking that chance.

I can see the name of this band getting confused with MCM and them being linked to them, but 2 completely different bands at the end of the day
^Bg doesnt argue with women...he s a sucker for the felines
^BB i think i remember that arguement, and i gained that respect for you from that grit you showed..hope everything in the UK is well for you
Not a BFMV fan, but not a basher either...especially after seeing them live last year

Indeed, they could go into that direction. But they also could up the intensiy by increasing the complexity of their riffs, refining their soaring melodies, and tieing everything together with intricate song structures. I just dont think BFMV is a good band to become heavier. It seems that with Metalcore acts they either go one way or another in an attempt to branch out. Bullet is fortunate enough to have set themselves apart already in their career, and i hope they can keep their momentum going on this next album.

This is definitely not more thrashy. I have all their albums. However I think one of the main thing holding these guys back is Tuck's voice. Whiny, emo, and sounds like he's 15. They will never lose their image with him singing all the time. Plus........they recycle the same riffs over, and over, and over. Good workout music though.

I like bullet, but for me their problem is not the emo thing, but a complete inability to write or mix bass lines. And too much screaming, but that's just personal taste.

Not a great fan of begging for mercy, but I'll buy the album and see how it turns out ...

#37, too much screaming?? BFMV???? Are you sure you're at the right website dude? LOL j/k I agree with you though on their inability to write lyrics. Pretty terrible IMO. Their sound is good though, they can play...and play well live. I hope their new album is better lyrically this time around.

#37, I love melodeath and a fair bit of death metal, so I'd sat I'm on the right website. But matt tuck's screams never really seem to work that well IMO. Whereas his clean vocals are actually quite good.
