Release Date: 2003 | Tracklist


Guitarmy
shortest song 39 seconds, its just Jordan and Johnny screaming a lot it sounds really cool though, its very hard just like almost every song on this cd 4/5

****ing's Greatest Hits
starts out with a little guitar, and just rips right in your ears. the songs about how people make music for the sole purpose of money, very harsh song. it does have slow parts but most people wouldnt call it slow, i guess this song could kinda pull of as a refused song 5/5


Burn, Piano Island, Burn
Well i should tell you if you dont like a lot of screaming, this cd isnt for you. this song is very good the vocals are just amazing how they can do the **** with there voices is beyond me. this song has jordan and johnny vocals switching off every verse. the instruments are just ear ripping. 4/5

Every Breath Is a Bomb
starts out with some random noise and jordan starts singing queitly, but once johnny comes in your waiting for the song just to go loud. which it does but they make you wiat for about 10 seconds in anticipation. not the hardest song on the album, but you can still call it a hard song 4/5

Ambulance vs. Ambulance
this is my favorite song by BB, this song got me into them. it starts out with them singing not real loud, not even screaming at first. and in the back you can hear a faint fast bass going everywhere on the fretboard. then they start screaming and the chorus just rips open. the chorus is actually very catchy. they use an xylophone in this song. they use a lot of different instruments. 5/5

USA Nails
starts out with some messy, guitar then of course that ear shattering music comes in "1-900- USA" is heard through out most of the song, this song is just really energetic as is most of the other songs is really cool. 5/5

Cecilia and the Silhouette Saloon
wow. this is an amazing song its energetic the harmonics of the song are very catchy the singing is great. it slows down in the middle of the song. and some drums come in, which leads to them just singing with just the drums going. it stays relatively slow, and they all start chanting. which leads to the guitar coming in by itself. thinking the song is almost over the song just rips up again for another 20 seconds, the ending though is a lot of useless noise which is annoying but, the song makes up for all of that 5/5

Six Nightmares at the Pinball Masquerade
Johnny's voice sounds really cool on this too bad the chorus is SIX NIGHTMARES repeated over and over which gets pretty annoying. it gets pretty slow but you know that it will get hard soon. which is true, and its non stop screaming and loud instruments. 3/5

The Salesman, Denver Max
it starts out with an acoustic :o "my name is denver max, i eat heart attacks" is just part of the acoustic part. then it gets a bit harder. not as hard as the other songs though. then it comes back to the acoustic. the acoustic parts are very catchy. but after that is all pure loud harsh music, (the blood brothers trademark) 5/5

I Know Where the Canaries and Crows Go
starts out like a regular blood brothers song. but when the slower part comes the bass in the background is just amazing "where do the hawks go" is part of the verse which leads up to the harsher ****. "i know where the canaries go" gets in your head.its a boring song after awhile 3/5

God Bless You, Blood Thirsty Zeppelins
this is an energetic song, but its an average song you would excpet from the blood brothers 3.5/5

The Shame
longest song on the album. it starts out really slow, like there actually singing not screaming. the instruments are very technical in this song. but then the blood brothers trademark you get to know comes in soon, but it definatly has it slowers parts 4/5

if you like the refused check these guys out

recommended songs:
ambulance vs. ambulance
denver max
****ing's greatest hits

the cd also comes with some extra features if you put it on your computer you get to se guitarmy, and Cecilia and the Silhouette Saloon live. which is real cool

i give this album 5/5 loud, fast,energetic

Six Nightmares, Ambulance vs. Ambulance and Ceclia are so amazing. DL Siamese Gun also. If you like the Blood Brothers you'd really like Vendetta Red. They have similar scream styles.

Not a hint of Screamo in there. Its a lot harsher. One of those albums that shouldnt be classified at all really.

The only thing i don't like is that they have two singers. And according to the "real screamo" definiton, I would call this screamo. Alot of chaos...

I have still yet read the bands you actually like despite my calling you out on the subject. How about here, in front of everyone, you tell us, why do certain bands suck and why are certain goo, and which bands you enjoy listening to.

This is an awesome album. Average review, but a very cool album.

Blood brother's to me, are starting something very good. The music world needs The Blood Brothers.
