BULLET TREATMENT
"The Mistake"
12" Clear Vinyl
(br-042)
CD available on THINK
FAST! RECORDS
Bullet Treatment have finally
completed the recording for their first full length
album "The Mistake". The reason this is considered the
first full length is because this is the first record
to actually exceed the 20 minute mark. Even then, these
16 brand new songs barely go over 20 minutes. The tracks
"Grindstone" & "Already Dead" are available
for streaming on Bullet Treatment's page. Do yourself
a favor and check these songs out and get psyched for
"The Mistake" which hits stores on Oct. 17th. This version
of Bullet Treatment features the return of vocal duties
by Matt Caughthran from The BRONX. Other members have
taken part in everyone from The DRIPS to SUICIDAL TENDENCIES.
For fans of Descendents, Minor Threat, and Adolescents.

REVIEW:
"Pretty much all you
need to know about BULLET TREATMENT is that tey
are ultra fast hardcore/punk like they made it 20 something
years ago, with Matt Caughthran from THE BRONX
handling lead vocal duties. Half of the album's 16 songs
are played at a clip just under grind speeds, while
the remaining songs follow through with a more bombastic,
swagger-dragging beat. "Grindstone," dabbles in both,
starting off with bar rock sensibilities, and then igniting
into a clusterfuck of ludicrous speed guitars and drumming.
This Mistake is the audio equivalent of watching a power
washer destroy grime and dirt particles from a piece
of decking. Songs like "Touch Us," "Trapped Inside,"
and "Already Dead" are the epitome of punk and hardcore
at its most caustic ceiling. Caughthran's vocal style
consists mainly of agonized howling and the type of
screaming usually associated with self-performed surgery,
with brief interludes of mild-tempered singing. At only
22 minutes in length, This Mistake is ruthlessly efficient
and shreds without interruption. Give your music collection
a kick in the pants - This Mistake is a jaw-dislocating
kind of release."
