2015, Bleeding was founded in 2011 in Hamburg on a gig of prog's finest Psychotic Waltz. The members already knew each other from former bands in the area of Stade, near Hamburg. Bleeding's music features different influences from prog to thrash metal, leading to both catchy and intricate songs, bringing out all the qualities of modern heavy rock. Bleeding start with bold riffs and quirky vocals and then embark on a real rollercoaster of a journey. There's utterly offbeat and mellow, direct and pulsating, and some odd gems as this progresses. If you think what System Of A Down did to metalcore and punk, Bleeding are doing the same to progressive music. It's got simple yet cool artwork, layers and intriguing arrangements, and a crisp clear sound. If you want to have your prog tastebuds challenged, grab this immediately.
