The Bled is a metalcore/post-hardcore band from Tucson, Arizona. Formed in 2001, they soon established a name for themselves in their home town, playing many shows and often to sold out audiences. Eventually they signed to Fiddler Records and released one album through them - Pass The Flask. The band toured extensively in support of this album. However, before recording started for their second album, original bass player, Mike Celi, left the band. He was replaced by Darren Simoes. The band is currently signed to Vagrant Records and through them, released their second album, Found In The Flood in 2005. They have toured alongside such bands as Slipknot, Alexisonfire, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Thrice, Midtown, The Used, My Chemical Romance, Underoath, Senses Fail, and AFI. The Bled’s very first headlining tour was shared with Protest the Hero of Canada. The Bled consists of:

James Muñoz - vocals
Jeremy Talley - guitar
Ross Ott - guitar
Darren Simoes - bass
Mike Pedicone - drums

Bands usually seek to do one of two things: define their genre, or defy their genre. However, since bursting out of Tucson, AZ in 2001 with their unique mix of hardcore brutality and an eclectic musical palette, The Bled have done both. Taking cues from their peers in the burgeoning hardcore scene of the time—bands like Refused and The Dillinger Escape Plan — The Bled quickly became one of a handful of bands who set the standard for the genre. But with the release of the Found in the Flood— the band’s second full-length and first for Vagrant Records — The Bled have set themselves apart from the hordes of bands joining the hardcore fray, in the process forging their own place in the musical spectrum.

the new stuff owns everything else. this band grows with each album, and Silent Treatment is pure evidence of that.

They should've continued progressing instead of going backwards. Lost interest in them now, really.

All the albums are good but Pass The Flask has something unique and in my opinion, superior to the other albums.

its a step back because they cant play half the shit they play on found in the flood live every night. plain and simple. silent treatment is more of a this is what we want to play live album.

well, been hearing them for a while now, and uh i don´t find all of Silent Treatment 'awesome' but i certainly like most of it, and the same goes with their previous albums. The Bled is a great band, and every album has something different to offer. in my opinion.

it doesn't matter how good 'silent treatment' is (and it's good), after 'found in the flood' it still feels like a step back, like it was made to appease current fans and not to move forward musically. 'pass the flask' was a masterpiece and i doubt they'll ever write another song as good as 'sound of sulfur'...but 'found in the flood' was a step forward creatively. 'silent treatment' isn't.
