BULLET TREATMENT

About Me

Like every true hardcore/punk band, BULLET TREATMENT play by their own rules, but it's safe to say they have a formula unlike any other. Since their inception over six years ago, they've had a revolving door for a lineup, consisting of over 20 different members, which has included members of:
-VULTURES UNITED
-THE VOIDS
-INSTED
-THE ALLIGATORS
-ROCK KILLS KID
-SPIDER
-THE BRONX
-CIVET
-SUICIDAL TENDENCIES
-DEATH IN ME
-THE ICARUS LINE
-JEFFRIES FAN CLUB
-& more...........
This is the secret recipe that is BULLET TREATMENT. "Everyone's in other serious bands doing their own thing with their own bands, so that's what's cool about doing this, everyone comes in and out whenever they can as their schedules permit". "How many bands do you actually know that still have all of their original members? Literally, none of them do. So we just figured if it's going to happen anyway, then we might as well do it on purpose." With this mentality, BULLET TREATMENT has managed to consistently put out an array of flawless ep's, splits, covers, and compilation tracks.

Review Excerpts:
"The overall sound of "The Mistake" is that of people running into each other with scissors. It's the sound The Mistake that used to have people branding punk rock as dangerous music." - Pastepunk.com

"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. Bullet Treatment proves there's simply no mistake to be found." - Mean Street Magazine

"The spirit of 1980 lives on in Bullet Treatment, fast angry short blasts that I hope will wake up the punk world." - Greg Hetson (Bad Religion)

"What More Do You Want?" is one of the Top 10 records of 2004." - Amp Magazine

"Bullet Treatment reminds me when music was still dangerous and fun. No fancy crap or multiple takes. Rock !!!" - Volcom

"Who are these guys anyway? And why the hell aren't these guys headlining the Warped Tour instead of all that radio friendly fodder all the young punks are being force fed? By and large, this is a gift from the punk gods above, proving there is still hope for us yet." - Skratch Magazine

"Fast, Loud, and Hard, the way that Punk Rock was meant to be. Combines elements of the Minor Threat/DC scene with LA sensibilities. Play this loud and watch the old folks scatter!" - Kimm Gardener (Channel 3)

"There's the incredible highspeed-drumming, churning guitars and a vocalist shouting like there won't be a tomorrow. All of these things are working in favor of Bullet Treatment and make them a great listen!" - Punk Rock Theory

"Bullet Treatment play straight-up hardcore punk that's fast and belligerent and you can't keep track of these guys- it's unpredictable and impulsive and the more I hear, the more I wanna hear. It's got the assertion of Minor Threat and the Circle Jerks and a more assertive 7 Seconds. I can't back this shit enough, it just excites me. It's back to basics and it's where we should be heading. Sick." - No Front Teeth Magazine

"A bottle of Advil is required for listening." - Slug Magazine

"This is no bullshit, in your face thrash that would fit in with bands like Jerry's Kids, Articles Of Faith or Negative Approach. And those are names that I don't use lightly." - Loud, Fast, Rules! Magazine

"Fast thrashing hardcore - with feet planting firmly in punk. They've got this classic SoCal hardcore feel to them - think early Adolescents and Circle Jerks." - Maximum Rock n' Roll Magazine
