Bullet for my Valentine????

[Halie]

I've noticed that no one has ever made a thread about these before, so I thought not a lot of people on TFF must like them, or they might not have heard of them before. So I started one to ask people, who likes this band?

Well, I like them a lot. They're probably one of my favourite bands, I'd say my second or third favourite band. My favourite song from them is Tears don't fall, but I also really really like:
All these things I hate
Hit the floor
The end
Four words

It's also great that they're welsh, because I'm welsh too.

So yeah, I love this band, do you?

Or haven't you even heard of them?

What's your favourite song of theirs?

What's your least favourite song of theirs?

[Georgiet]

not really a big fan of theirs but like a few songs of them. tears don't fall i love that song and the video just love the whole song and words it says and their is another song that i don't know the name to it but there was a viedo made for it, it had the fans in line getting ready to see the band perform

[Itachi Uchiha]

Well to answer you questions in order:

1) Yes, i also love this band. Although emo, there are very good and usual there music suits my moods when i'm depressed.

2) Oh course i have heard of them or i would be praising there good music.

3) I don't have a favorite song by them since all the ones i have listened to are good.

4) Like my previous answer, i don't have a least favorite by them either.

I've been listening to this band for awhile and they are very good. Songs like tears don't fall, suffocating under words of sorrow, four words to choke upon etc. There all good so i can't choose one.

[Musashiden]

Well, all I can honestly say in their defense is that their use of double harmonies is nothing short of brilliant. It's just a shame they chose the emo route because it's obvious that they're very talented.

[Bryan 2.0]

I actually really like Bullet For My Valentine. I've known about them for quite some time. They're not emo, either. A few of their songs have emo-ish lyrical content, but that's about it.

I don't consider them emo in the least bit.

[Sir Kenneth]

They sound to me like a watered down and less exciting version of their American counterparts which aren't very good either. My sixteen year old panda face-painted cousin seems to love crap like this though.

[Hyzenthlay]

NOT EMO AT ALL!

I love them!

Favorite songs:
Suffocating under
Tears dont fall
Hand of blood

I love them, my second favorite band. I can never accept anything bad about them at all, love love love love love love love!

Been to see them 6 times:
Apollo (manchester)
Academy 2 (manchester)
MEN Arena (manchester)
Wembly (London)
The Jukebox (Bangor)
Crown and sixpence (London)

Thanks Aimee.

[Leroy]

They're not emo. They're one of the most generic metalcore bands I've ever listened to.

[Daddy]

They're not emo. They're one of the most generic metalcore bands I've ever listened to.

Seconded.

You guys REALLY need to get your definition of 'emo' fixed up. Emos bands are bands such as Straylight Run, Circle Takes The Square, Avalon Drive, The Rites of Spring and early At The Drive-In.

It's as pathetic as people thinking Avenged Sevenfold are emo. wtf?

[Lethal Seraphim]

They're not emo, either. A few of their songs have emo-ish lyrical content, but that's about it.

I don't consider them emo in the least bit.

Agreed.

I like this band a lot as well. I heard about them about 7 or 8 months ago and got The Poison from my buddy. I've never been into metal and that type of thing much, but I do like this band. The double bass pedal in some of their songs makes me a bit randy in the panties. Personally it reminded me of a Metallica-type band, what with the ballads and intros and such. Although, that would be the only comparison between them and Metallica that I would dare make.

Yeah, I like the whole CD more or less. Tears Don't Fall is a great song. I dunno if it's my favorite but it's the one I'm hearing in my head right now cuz other people mentioned it.

[Tiny]

i like the band but so far i have only heard tears don't fall i love the song and video is just great. haven't heard anythoing besides that song so i guess i am not a fan of their music but still love that song.

[LostUtopian]

Seconded.

I totally agree. Even though I just started listening to them not too long ago, they're definitely NOT emo

[Echo Zel]

I love them, my second favorite band. I can never accept anything bad about them at all, love love love love love love love!

Aimee! I knew you'd be in here! How do sis!?

So anyway, I like them, but not as much as that psycho I quoted, my favorite song is "Suffocating under (Words of sorrow)"

The new songs are shit and needs burning. So does alot of their old stuff actually, I only like a few songs and thats cos I have been subjected to them for 6 months by my darling little sister.

But yea, EMOOO (In the lyrical content, the people arnt, nor are the guitar riffs. Just so people get the **** offof my back).

Laters.

[Leroy]

Seconded.

And Joshua Fit For Battle, Moss Icon and Bucket Full of Teeth. Emo is shithouse music anyways, I hate it. But seriously, BFMV isn't remotely emo

[Chez Daja]

I don't think they're emo, but I still hate them.

Funny how two of their songs have Linkin Park titles. OSHIT.

What else? I'm not greatly keen on the Welsh accent despite the fact you can't really hear it in his singing...

What upsets me is the fact I actually know people that listen to this and they rant and rave on and on about it... Some music is impossible for me to enjoy, but I put up with my annoying friends anyway.

[Kinney]

I love them!
I nused to be a big fan from them but later on I stopped for no real reason, or maybe it was because I started liking other bands.
But still I think they're pretty awesome
They're still on my top favourite bands though
No doubt about that

[MiwaMiwa]

Ugh, I dislike this band, greatly.
My boyfriend's younger sister loves them...well, it's not like she's that young, she's about 8 months younger than me...a little over a year younger than her brother (my boyfriend). Anyways, this seems like weird emo music, horrible voices, and it's the same type of generic pop-rock music that most of the other warped tour-esque bands are doing.

[Chez Daja]

I know how you mean there.

Ugh, I hate the voice they all use, it's the same! And the look! It's always the same!

Bullet For My Valentine is another one of those bands that you'll see on the olides channel is years in the future... and think "...they're still shit now."

[Slick]

When BFMV started hitting demo tracks on bonus c.d.s from Roadrunner Records and with Hard Rock magazines, they seemed really promising. Then when The Poison came out, it was freaking great. My favorite song from them is All These Things I Hate (Revolve Around Me). And when someone says they stay the same vocal wise and instrumental wise, they can say that to their new c.d. Scream Air Fire for the most part. Yes it was pretty repetitive, with the whole trying to make every song uptempo. But with The Poison, I would have to say that you apparently need your ears checked if you think they had no change in their style. Tears Don't Fall...can you honestly tell me that song didn't change, or All These Thing's I Hate (Revolve Around Me)...
I just think that when people criticize someone's music, maybe they should try listening to the whole c.d. and maybe a bit more than the first 20 seconds of a song....

OH! AND PLEASE STOP LABELING THE ****ING MUSIC PEOPLE. ITS GODDAMN MUSIC!

[ChloChloAriadne]

Um. No, they're not emo.

But they are -

-Sadly generic
-Overrated
-The buzz of every emokid in town that thinks they're emo.
-Really, not all that good.

They're not -bad-, they just aren't good. Unoriginal, generic, just not that interesting, and they just don't sound that much different from any other teen-oriented metal band in the world =/

[ZantetsukeN]

They are definitely not emo.

I love them by the way. I have seen them live before, and they totally killed, they were amazing! However, their new album doesn't compare to 'The Poison'.

[You]

Agreed, definatly not emo, that phrase gets tossed around so much nowadays that everything is emo.

BFMV are ok, a bit generic but quite fun none the less and good at what they do. Not the best band in the world but they have some staying power. The Poison was quite ok but Scream. Aim. Fire. was a bit of a mess with too many different sounds and styles trying to come accross imo.

[Sean]

whatever genre you want to label these guys - I don't listen to. Anything that sounds like them will never be on my playlist, alongside any band with a lead singer who screams or bands who can only play three chords over and over to make a song.


So, no. I don't like them. =)

[legend]

I like them. Their music isn't bad. My dad listened to them and said he didn't like them, but you like what you like...

erm and they're not emo

[Raider]

I love this band

my faves are

--Tears Don't Fall
--room 409 (live versions is best)
--waking the demon
--all these things i hate

[some guy]

So yeah, I love this band, do you?
This band is pretty cool, they do some pretty cool songs and pretty cool covers like, Sanitarium, and No Easy Way Out.

What's your favourite song of theirs?
I would have to say my favorite song by them would be Deliver Us From Evil

What's your least favourite song of theirs?[/B]
And as for least favorite would be Last To Know, there's no real explanation behind this, I just don't like it.

As I would also like to confess, they toured Australia with Atreyu and Avenged Sevenfold, and I deeply regret not going, and I sure hope they come back!!

[ChaosXxXWeapon]

I happen to think they are quite good, especially musician wise.
My personal favorite is "Hand of Blood".
There are some songs though, where I have no clue why they put them on the record, but hey, whatever works.

Has anyone heard the bonus edition of Scream Aim Fire?
It has four new tracks...they're pretty good...

[Myst]

I like them! i could even give links to downloads but im sure i'd get in trouble xD <- lol im a tease.

but i could give links to youtube vids for my favourite songs!

YouTube - Bullet For My Valentine- Hit The Floor

i dont know why people say their emo. emo isn't a music type its a fashion thing. This is metal fools! well not even really really metal, but punk metal/scream-o <- and im not even sure im right about that.

thats about all i got to say about them, i like em and thats all.

Although the new album is a bit more punk then metal now.

[some guy]

BM4V....Twas a good band for me at one stage, it was my rage music, but I have grown "over it" and now it just makes me think of the past and tears start a-flowing. That's just my personal experience, but they still are an alright band, and I deeply regret not going to see them live with A7X and Atreyu...

[ChaosXxXWeapon]

I feel they write certain songs that I just relate to, in times of a personal crisis. And In the end, isn't that what it's all about, writing something that people can relate to?
