SPILL ALBUM REVIEW: BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE – BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE (DELUXE EDITION)

c

Bullet For My Valentine
Bullet For My Valentine (Deluxe Edition)
Spinefarm Records

Bullet for My Valentine have just released a deluxe edition of their super intense, self-titled album Bullet For My Valentine. It includes the addition of 5 additional tracks, 4 of which are brand new.

“Omen” starts out with some heavy riffs, and vocalist Matt Tuck shows what he can do by switching back and forth between whispers and roars to deliver a hard-hitting melody.

“Stitches”, previously only a Japanese exclusive, will take you back to their The Poison days. The whole track has a mixture of old school and current BFMV with some amazing clean vocals, giving fans every bit of what they love about BFMV all wrapped up into one song.
“No More Tears to Cry” is a dark but interesting song about mental health that is of course very relatable these days.
Taking it down several notches, “Step Out From the Inside” is the mellowest track on the album offering mostly Matt’s clean vocals and guitars, with drums coming in later.

“This Means War” is another badass Matt Tuck battle cry that feels a lot like 2015’s “You Want a Battle? (Here’s a War)”, only this time around the sound is more viscous with the blistering riffs and now we get super talented drummer Jason Bowld’s ferocious drumming and the call out ‘Let the battle commence’. This track comes out of the gate swinging and closes out Bullet’s most brutal album to date

About the Author
Melinda Welsh
Melinda is a music enthusiast from the US who grew up on vinyl in the 70s and 80s. She's a lover of all genres, but rock/metal runs through her veins. Music is always in the background and in her head. Unfortunately, she has to have a "regular 8-5" job since "Professional Concert Go-er" doesn't pay the bills. Her bliss would be to follow more musicians and bands than "People she may know" on social media. Her ultimate long term goal is to be the old lady just enjoying the show down in front at the barricades at live shows. Her favorite quote is "Where words fail, music speaks".
