The best punk-rock band you ever heard but never heard!! BLEEDING HEARTS POLITICS AND LOVE 2006 ALBUM REVIEWS "One of the most original releases I have heard in a long time, combining catchy choruses, melodic vocals and classic rock n roll guitars into an uptempo punky melodic rocksound" (Strutter Magazine, Germany) "I really like these guys! They are masters of their own sound which is something certainly worth attempting to describe. A rock band with well intelligent and inspiring lyrics, the style ranges from quality rock anthems to beautiful folkish ballads. I really like this stuff, its warming and inviting and grows on you more and more with every listen, the songs really get into your head and don’t wanna leave!" (Colony One magazine, Ireland) "This CD really blows me away and is so amazing that I want to hear a new one soon. Everything I review will now have to compare with this CD" (XN Rock USA) "This studio album has all the excitement of a live gig and has a certain charm from the moment you press play - Bleeding Hearts strike a nice balance between folk and rock, taking elements of both to capture the songs in harmony" (Ryan's Gig Guide UK) We say buy it now! It's 'effin great! (Bleeding Hearts, UK) To get your hands on a copy of our stunning album please go to the Bleeding Hearts website.
