BIO:
Now here's a band that's a little bit different from
everyone else. There are no permanent members, no main
vocalist, no big shot rock star, no egos, just a bunch
of guys who get together and have fun. The line-up changes
on just about every release, and there's never the same
guys on stage. Whoever is available at that time is
in the band. Bullet Treatment has included members of
CUT SHALLOW, THE VOIDS, GRAVE FOR THE FIREFLIES, CIVET,
RF7, SPIDER, ROCK KILLS KID, THE DRIPS, THE BRONX, DAREDEVILS
& more. In no way do they pretend to be "original",
or do they try to be some "new" style of punk. They
pretty much sound exactly like all the bands that they
like.... THE RAMONES, BAD RELIGION, MISFITS, 7 SECONDS,
CIRCLE JERKS, ANGRY SAMOANS, TSOL, MINOR THREAT, & BAD
BRAINS !!!!
ALSO AVAILABLE:
"Dead Are Walking" 7"
"The Bigger, The Better"
7"
"Split 7" w/ The Nipples" 7"
"What More Do You Want?" cd
"Furious World 4-way split" cd
REVIEWS:
"THE
MISTAKE" 12" - "The Dischord
and SST Records hardcore ethos collide via savage synchronicity
on East L.A.-based Bullet Treatment's latest effort.
A fabulously furious assault of both East and West Coast
punchy punk adolescence, Bullet Treatment isn't just
a mere throwback to the halcyon days of circle pits
at CBGB. Sporting an experienced roster - including
Bronx vocalist Matt Caughthran - and an album that tears
through its track listing at a largely blistering pace
("Hand in Hand"), Bullet Treatment proves there's simply
no mistake to be found." - MEAN
STREET MAGAZINE
"DEAD
ARE WALKING" 7" - "The
hardcore juggernaut that is Bullet Treatment is back!
This time Liza Graves from Civet is featured on vocals
& the result is kind of like a modern day Sin 34. This
is true old school thrash, back to the days before hardcore
became another term for bad metal. $ songs here in just
under seven minutes, this is the kind of stuff that
will stick in your head for days! Buy this now! - LOUD
FAST RULES MAGAZINE
"THE
BIGGER, THE BETTER" 7" - "The
latest release from the ever-changing BULLLET TREATMENT
brings you more of what you have come to expect from
these guys - loud, fast, serious fucking hardcore punk
rock. You'd be hard pressed to find a band who does
it better than these guys, On this latest release, a
limited edition 7", they've got more new members (they're
up to 20+ members now), including a new drummer, bass
player, and lead vocalist - yet they don't lose a thing.
Think MINOR THREAT meets BAD RELIGION, but a whole lot
faster. It might just be 4 songs, but they're 4 of the
best songs you can ask for, and when this shit gets
inside your head, it ain't coming out." - AMP
MAGAZINE
"SPLIT
7" W/ THE NIPPLES 7" - "BULLET
TREATMENT and THE NIPPLES are the kind of bands that
get labelled as being of the rare, true punk rock breed;
bands that are 25 times "punker than you", etc. I'm
not going to argue with that fact. these guys could
no doubt out shout, out drink, out piss me, and thats
just fine. Because the world needs bands like this:
fast, angry, unpleasant bands who don't give a shit
who they offend and why. It's a raw punk racket inspired
by the ever-restless spirits of MINOR THREAT, 7 SECONDS
al., and you'll have a fairly certain idea by now whether
it's going to be up your street or not, which makes
my job a little easier. BULLET TREATMENT come across
as the slightly wiser older brother, but no less aggressive
in their approach. these guys are the original punk
oddballs, with a makeshift line-up that is forever changing
- they've gone through so many members (including 6
singers) it leaves even the band confused these days.
Their first contribution easily steals the show, a suprisingly
melodic and substantial effort in a driving, BAD RELIGION
way. A decent DESCENDENTS cover follows (the band itself
started out as a covers band), before a very raw (and
brief) live recording." - KILLTHENOISE.NET
"WHAT
MORE DO YOU WANT?"
- One of the 10 best records of 2004" -
AMP MAGAZINE
"All the songs on this CD bare
this same classic punk touch with incredible speed-drumming,
fierce and churning guitars and raw-shouting yet clear
vocals that altogether reminded me of long-time classic
acts like M.D.C. or 7 SECONDS and the likes. You'll
have to be open for some heavy shit when you buy it,
but if you like your bands fast and furious without
a degree of metal or growling voices, I'm sure you'll
love it as much as I do. This sound is the soil that
bands like GOOD RIDDANCE and their adepts are still
weeding from. I will always like bands that manage to
reproduce this sound in the way BULLET TREATMENT does
it, no matter how generic it might be to some." -
PUNKNEWS.ORG
"FURIOUS
WORLD" -
"Finally a four way comp with balls and diversity.
Four bands chugging out old school hardcore the old
fashioned way. With integrity and differentiating styles.
The problem with the new school is they rehash speed
metal riffs over hardcore drumbeats. All bands here
do their own take on the genre with great outcomes.
BULLET TREATMENT is California's best kept secret churning
out classic punk on past releases and this time out
showing hardcore who the real deal actually is. By and
large, this release keeps the faith and proves that
hardcore doesn't have to be metal to be brutal." - SKRATCH
