Wales’ finest metal act – Bullet For My Valentine – return to the scene with new single Scream, Aim, Fire. This is my first experience of the band but…damn! After a gutfull of pop music recently, it’s satisfying to hear good old-school metal like this: heavy, intense, brutal.

I’m actually stoked that the UK is still putting out metal acts with this ferocity. Matt Tuck’s throat-ripping screams are awesome. If what I’m reading is correct, he’s not even at full strength due to an illness.

Extra credit to the amazing drumming from Michael Thomas – that guy knows how to pound the skins. Unfortunately, I can only point you to the Scream, Aim, Fire video since YouTube doesn’t allow embeds on this one.
