Formed in 2017, The
Bloody Hell has gotten dirtier and more polished at the
same time, with the band infecting fans with their pop-cultural hooks and
concepts, while the guitars keep getting louder and the vocals becoming uglier. The Bloody Hell is
pretty much what would happen if George Thorogood sang for the Misfits, but all
the songs were written by Tom Petty.
Super catchy horror rock songs about drinking and heartache are
played at punk rock speed with a lineup that features vocalist/guitarist Ian
Kean (guitar, vocals), guitarist and pianist James Densley also known from
Bubbles and The Shit Rockers, the band fronted by the character Bubbles from
the hit TV show The Trailer Park Boys, drummer Kyle Cantfell (Elektric
Mistress), and bassist Joe Woods (Root Cellar).
Fast forward now to 2022, and these Canadian punk rockers from
Halifax, Nova Scotia return in 2022 to finally release their long-awaited
follow-up to their 2018 debut self-titled album. Entitled "Nobody Cares",
the sophomore full-length is out now as of November 10th. Over the last two
years during the Covid pandemic, the band shared two singles and music
videos, "Nobody
Cares About America Anymore" and "When You're Gone" off
the record to a great reception from fans.
"The album took about 3 years to complete due to Covid
restrictions, lockdown, and all the madness that was the pandemic. With this
album, we feel our sound has evolved nicely from the previous record released
in 2018. We have worked hard to shape our songwriting and storytelling
abilities and that is thoroughly displayed over the nine tracks on this album.
We are hoping that fans who loved our first album will be super excited to hear
this one to see how our songwriting has progressed. And we hope that people
hearing us for the first time will find something in our sound to relate to or
sing along with." adds vocalist/guitarist Ian
Kean.
"Nobody Cares" features The Bloody Hell's
signature sound of raspy aggressive, catchy horror, and politically charged
antics over nine tracks that clock in at just over 28 minutes. From tracks like
"Hide Away" with its fast punky driving riff and slick earworm guitar
lead to "Barbra" a cover of an old Canadian punk song by Vancouver
legends Modernettes to even having saxophone on "G" along with added
piano on "As Above" and "So Below", punk fans will find it
to be an energetic and passionate sonic experience that conveys stories from
lived experiences that many can relate to.
"It's a true story and we mean every word, hook, and note
on it. We give an emotional rollercoaster for your eyes and mind with twists
and turns, ups and downs. Just as life is. All the lyrics come from personal
experiences whether it be a relationship failure or success, a wild story of
substance abuse, or just an observation about world events. I write what I know
and try to be truthful in my lyrics." says Kean.
With a big emphasis on storytelling, so are the two music videos
they released to support the album, which can be viewed below.

fun and dirty romp with a bull horn of grungy vocals.

Cares" is available on all digital platforms and
