Bullet For My Valentine (or Bullet as they are sometimes called) are a emo band from Wales(lolol) in the United Kingdom. Formed in 1998 under the name 'Jeff Killed John', they originally played Metallica and Nirvana covers. They initially stuggled to find success because they were absolutely talentless, and tensions arose when other Welsh bands such as Lostprophets and Funeral For A Friend were getting noticed and became more and more popular. When it came to the band recording a demo, things didn't go as well as planned because they forgot their guitars. When I say guitars, I mean talent. The band couldn't get it together to record a demo, and subsequently split up. But despite this, they did get back together and they found a new bassist in the shape of Maher Michel. They changed their name from 'Jeff Killed John' first to 'Opportunity In Chigago' then to the now familar 'Bullet For My Valentine'. The band later signed a deal with Shit Records via John Underwood in October 2004.
