History

Bullet for My Valentine came out of Bridgend in South Wales in the mid-2000s with a version of metalcore that owed as much to British heavy metal of the early 1980s as to the American hardcore side of the genre. The guitars work in harmonised twin leads and fast alternate-picked riffs, the solos are long and written out rather than improvised, and the drumming alternates double kick with straight rock beats. On top of that sits the split vocal approach the band became known for: Matt Tuck moving between a clean, high, melodic chorus voice and a shredded scream on the verses, sometimes within a single line. The Poison established the formula, Tears Don't Fall in particular, and the later records pushed it in both directions, heavier on Scream Aim Fire and more polished on Fever. They spent the following years as one of the few British bands of that wave to hold a regular main-stage slot at European metal festivals.
