Emerging Artist:Bullet For My ValentinePublished March 25, 2008 The Welsh metal-core band Bullet For My Valentine has spent most of the past two years taking over the world with massive U.K., European, U.S., and worldwide tours. They've shared the stage with Guns N Roses, Metallica, and Iron Maiden, playing the Main Stage at just about every rock festival on the planet.
Their 2006 debut album The Poison is an album London's daily The Sun called "One of the finest debut albums in rock history." The Poison has sold more than one-million copies worldwide—350,000 in the U.S. alone—a very rare achievement for an emerging band. Scream Aim FireTheir new album Scream Aim Fire, featuring the distinctive and powerful six-string dexterity of Michael "Padge" Padget, the unwavering instrumental groove of bassist Jason "Jay" James and the relentless thundering rhythms of Michael "Moose" Thomas, the musical backbone of Bullet is an intimidating force. With a lifetime of classic metal inspiration behind him, vocalist/guitarist Tuck is a formidable and powerful voice for the ever energetic, young metal generation. Despite the fact that these four musicians are now considered prominent players in the U.K./European metal world, as well as serious up-and-comers here in the U.S., the lads remain grounded (all still living in their native Welsh homeland) and eternally grateful for the position that they now find themselves in.
