The Bleedin Bleedins set to perform at
The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Research Foundation Benefit
with The Craving, The Gray Davies and Hate Game
Sat 6/17 at the Dover Brickhouse
Don’t let the name fool you – the Bleedin Bleedins, a Brit-bowing trio with ties to Boston and Dublin, deliver gorgeously amped music, with anthemic twists and melodic turns. Their fully charged debut “Life Without Computers” charted for 5 weeks on the CMJ 200 and has been getting glowing nods. Some nice things said so far:
“Affable, danceable, and emotional, and with tunes that stick around, ‘Life Without Computers’ has plenty of heart. A bleedin' one, of course.” - Boston Globe
“Simultaneously upbeat and relaxing, this record raises high expectations for the band’s future.” - Boston magazine
“’Life Without Computers’ is a tour de force of summertime driving-with-the-top-down-singing-at-the-top-your-lungs ditties.” - Blogcritics.org
“Everything you expect from a contemporary rock band is here — the jerky disco rhythms, the bass leads, the affected vocals and the delay turned up to 5 million, but it somehow comes off as — dare I say it — sincere.” - Metro Boston
“Their name makes them sound like a band that might punch you, but they won’t. Fans of super-hooky pop in the vein of the Killers will go ballistic for these boys—not to mention their new CD, ‘Life Without Computers.’” - The Weekly Dig
“They may not be selling out arenas yet, but give 'em time.” - PopMatters
“U2-rooted Brit-poppers from Boston and Dublin, every bit as polite as that description suggests.” - Village Voice
