    Ah. There's that tingly feeling again. The only type of tingly feeling that comes when one hears some really, really good slamming groovetacular metal. That's right. I said "groovetacular". How groovetacular? Faithbomb's Bleed, in my humble opinion, ranks up there with Eternal Decision, Oil, Eloi and Godsmack. Heavy, heavy, heavy. The production is superb, the playing is tight, and the sonics of this disc just grab you by the Adam's apple and won't let go. Now, the lyrics are quite Christian, and in that I mean intelligent and uplifting at times, and then dark yet spiritual at other times. I do want to point out, though, that it seems the entire lyrics weren't printed in the sleeve of the CD liner, and a quick surf to the faithbomb website (www.faithbomb.net) uncovered nothing in the likes of fully printed lyrics. The vocals, however, are growly yet easy to decipher for those who're particular about their lyrical intake. Bottom line, a worthy addition to your metal collection. Enjoy.

Bleed by Faithbomb is a great disk. I am not trying to sound biased on D's behalf whatsoever, this disk was great. I loved its groove metal riffs with the tough guy hardcore vocals and amazing drums will make you beg for more. I really…
