"Parallels is about the loss of my father when i was 11; it's about dealing with feelings of regret and shame and how he might view me now. It questions how to leave your grief behind and move on rather than allowing it to consume you and define everything you do"
In Case Of Fire and Bullet For My Valentine win at this years Kerrang! Awards.
Raw Power Management have triumphed once again at this years Kerrang! Awards with In Case Of Fire and Bullet For My Valentine taking home the prized K!
Bullet For My Valentine have cemented their position as the UK's biggest metal band by winning 'Best British Band' at the Kerrang! Awards for the second year in a row. As the band are currently on the Mayhem Tour in the US there were unable to collect the award in person, instead recording a video acceptance speech thanking Kerrang! for the nomination and all their fans worldwide for voting for them. With a new album coming early in 2010, let see if we can make it a hat-trick next year!
In Case Of Fire win ‘Best British Newcomer’ beating the likes of Attack! Attack!, My Passion, Young Guns and Fei Comodo. The forthcoming single “Parallels” is released 24th August and is taken from the current debut album “Align The Planets” out now.
