Metal Hammer - 8/10 - The Addiction - Currently riding a wave of hype for their previous 3 EPs F.A.T.E are undoubtedly talented. Satisfyingly crunchy while maintaining melodic sensibilities, these boys know their way around a beatdown! Already compared to Killswitch F.A.T.E are definatly ones to watch. 29/08/07
Metal Hammer – 8/10 – Survive This - This young quintet pack a punch like Killswitch or even the Agony Scene. As the tracks get going, the core breakdowns subside and the metal juggernaut hammers on through like a wrecking ball. The tracks are great and have the power to stick. This could well get interesting.
Big Cheese – 4/5 – Live Review - April 09
Matt Tuck – Bullet for my Valentine – “There was riffs and there’s a difference between riffs and good riffs, and they were good riffs. It’s cool, it’s catchy, but it wasn’t too extreme, and it had a groove.”
Dan Lane Deputy Editor Kerrang! - Wow! Best demo I’ve heard in a long time!
Kerrang (Dom Lawson)–
“New ‘Core kids on the block’ show great promise.”
“HUGE, HULKING metalcore riffs and soaring radio-friendly choruses”
“This quartet’s potential is obvious”
Still Blind - Video - Directed Recorded and produced by Chris Phillips
