Philipshalle, Düsseldorf, Germany21st November 2008
Bullet for my Valentine, Lacuna Coil, Bleeding Through, Black Tide
They excite old Heavy Metal fans as well as a young, growing generation of listeners of hard music. The Welsh four-piece BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE is unstoppable since the release of their debut ‘The Poison’ in 2005. Over 1 Mio sold copies, world tours with big names like METALLICA, IRON MAIDEN and GUNS’N’ROSES as well as various awards prove the success of the Welshmen The British ‘Q’ even speaks of “The best British Metal band since decades.” Since the release of their second album ‘Scream Aim Fire’ in January, the band is on world tour which will also lead them to Düsseldorf, Munich, Wiesbaden and Berlin between 21st and 29th November 2008. Extraordinary Metal music from England rather carves out a niche existence for many years. Since Britpop and the still up to date wave of Nu Wave bands, most young British musicians to the Indie, rather than to the sounds of slicing guitars and brutal double-bass drum gallops.
In spite of endless tours the band managed to pull out various EPs with new and unreleased material. After a forced break during which singer Matthew Tuck had to undergo a tonsil surgery, the recordings for the second album ‘Scream Aim Fire’ followed. Again produced by metal master Colin Richardson (Machine Head, Funeral for a Friend) this work shows a harder, faster and more uncompromising face of BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE. Their talents are the precision of velocity and powerful dynamics, combined with razor-sharp riffs and extraordinary catchy melodies giving the elemental force the needed harmonic kick, so ‘Scream Aim Fire’ could even surpass the success of their debut. The CD entered the English as well as the German and American Top 5 of the music charts. Since the beginning of the year, the bands on a 2 years world tour, during which they’ll also enter 4 German concert halls with their violent rock.
