SCREAM, AIM AND FIRE THE BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE

Are Bullet for My Valentine the future of metal? They’re certainly one of those bands – like Trivium and Avenged Sevenfold – that seem to have captured the attention of the metal community in record time; I mean, I thought they were pretty big here in the States, where they’ve done opening stints for Guns N’ Roses and Rob Zombie, but when Vince and I saw ’em at Download last year – well, paint me green and call me Gumby, they’re HUGE.

Their first full length release, The Poison, has sold over a million copies worldwide, and now their follow-up offering, Scream Aim Fire, is set to drop January 29 and cement their status as one of the most important, can’t-be-ignored metal acts of their generation. If that news makes you feel all tingly, then this should really get your heart pumping: you can stream the band’s new single, also entitled “Scream Aim Fire,” right now in both Real and Windows Media formats. You can also hear it on the Bullet for My Valentine’s MySpace page, natch.

Scream Aim Fire drops January 29 on Trustkill.
