Taste of Chaos 2008 (Bullet For My Valentine, Avenged Sevenfold, and Atreyu)

Comments Off on Taste of Chaos 2008 (Bullet For My Valentine, Avenged Sevenfold, and Atreyu)

With the title track from their upcoming album, “Scream Aim Fire,” already blazing at Rock Radio, the Welsh metal-core band BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE announces that they will join forces with Avenged Sevenfold and Atreyu on the Main Stage for “Taste of Chaos,” 2008. The tour kicks off Friday, February 29 in Denver, CO, and will play more than 40 cities in the U.S. and Canada through to late April. The UK’s Kerrang! magazine recently cited a Bullet show at London’s Brixton Academy as one of the “100 Greatest Gigs Ever,” so U.S. fans should be in for a string of sensational performances.

The “Taste of Chaos” dates will be the first North American tour for Bullet For My Valentine since early 2007 when they sold out their first headline tour this side of “the Pond.” Just prior to “Taste of Chaos,” B4MV will play three weeks-worth of headline dates in the UK and Europe, including a kick-off concert in their native Wales.

Bullet For My Valentine – Matthew “Matt” Tuck/vocals, Michael “Padge” Paget/Guitar, Michael “Moose” Thomas/drums, and Jason “Jay” James/Bass – saw their 2006 debut album, “The Poison” – dubbed “One of the finest debut albums in rock history” by a major UK daily – sail past the million sales mark, selling 350,000 in the U.S. alone.

“Scream Aim Fire” was produced by Colin Richardson (Machinehead, Funeral For A Friend) who also produced “The Poison,” and was recorded at Sonic Ranch near El Paso, TX earlier this year. The eleven new songs are, according to frontman Tuck, “really melodic heavy metal…catchy, hooky choruses and full-on vocals, with the music being very in-your-face and heavy…it’s a lot more uptempo [than ‘The Poison’], a lot more aggressive.” Still a week away from the official U.S. radio “add” date, the album’s title track has been the #1 Most Added track at CMJ’s Loud Rock chart, and #1 Most Added at FMQB’s Metal Detector chart.

ARTIST OF THE DAY
Inhale Exhale

Hometown: Canton, OH
Genre: Hard Rock, Metal, Progressive
Sounds like: Atreyu, A Static Lullaby, Haste The Day
Current Album: The Lost the Sick the Sacred
Myspace: myspace.com/inhaleexhale
Official Site: inhaleexhalerock.com

Inhale Exhale’s debut album is phenomenal. A strong mixture of hard rock and shattering screams. They’re music will definitely get your blood pulsing. If you’re not moving any part of your body after listening to their music, I suggest you check your pulse. Inhale Exhale definitely brings “it” to the table. Favorite tracks of mine include By Grace and Touch of Deception. So stop what you’re doing, inhale, exhale, and buy their album above.
