  • New track on Kill Yout Idols tribute.

    Press Release.....


    V/A� EPILOGUE, A Tribute to KILL YOUR IDOLS (Coming soon on State of Mind Recordings)

    A number of Kill Your Idols inspired friends and fans gathered together to pay tribute.� This is a 4 part series titled “Epilogue” with all KYI cover tracks.� Each volume is going to be strictly limited to one pressing.�� This is going to be unique and every volume will include something extra in the packaging.� Each cover will be a section of the skull, collect all 4 to put the big picture together.


    You can’t imagine how much doing this release means to us.� Listening to and seeing KYI was a large part of growing up and still inspires us to this very day.�� There is a diverse bunch of bands compiled on this as we thought that made sense since KYI had played with a diverse number of bands them selves. These bands aren’t just doing this to be on a seven inch comp, they legitimately love KYI (most have a member with the Skull tattoo).� If you see any of them playing there is a good chance they will play the song they covered.� So put on some Kill Your Idols and get pumped!

  • New Years Eve Show! 2010-2011

    Current mood:cold

    We will be playing on New Years Eve this year in Calgary Alberta, Canada at The Distillery. More info soon. This will be "The Mistake" lineup that we have played the last couple shows with.

    Here's to Bret "The Hitman" Hart, Molson Beer and Freeze'n our asses off in 2011.
  • "The Mistake" review on punknews.org

    Current mood:sweaty

    There's a great review on punknews.org about "The Mistake" album.

    Take the reckless intensity of Black Flag, the breakneck speed of Minor Threat and the brilliant musical structures of early Adolescents. Now throw it all in a pot, set that shit on fire and let it explode in a blaze of glory. Your end result would be The Mistake by a little-known band called Bullet Treatment. If you aren't already familiar, Bullet Treatment is the brainchild of mainstay guitarist Chuck “D.C.” Dietrich. The rest of the band consists of over 20 rotating members from acts including Rise Against, Suicidal Tendencies and the Bronx. Clocking in at 23 minutes, Bullet Treatment packs quite a punch with its second studio album.

    The sound embodies everything you want and more in a hardcore punk album. Momentum bursts into fury as opening track “Illustrations” sets the stage for what’s to follow. Rollicking drumbeats and thrashing guitars fill your ears with thoughts that can only be described as violent. The songs don’t only sound unique--they are also infectious. “Pointless Conversation” and standout track “Grindstone” make use of catchy choruses that exceed expectations and make an impression on the listener, all the while maintaining a beat worthy of punching floors, walls, small children, etc...

    I also can’t forget to mention the talents of Bronx singer Matt Caughthran who provided his voice for The Mistake. Caughthran is what makes this album stand out from other punk records. His throat rips through each song with a level of frustration that rivals Damaged-era Henry Rollins. “I WANT, TO FEEL, EVERY-THIINGG!” he painfully screams on “Coke Nose," giving just a taste of his manic vocal style. Speaking of the Flag, the last track “The Mistake” is kind of reminiscent of “Damaged I,” full of random shouts and screams being played to distorted music, which is a nice throwback to the '80s classic.

    The sound quality, while not the best, is certainly the most well-produced effort Bullet Treatment has released prior to the Designated Vol. 1 7". It displays that raw energy feel that comes standard with any great hardcore album.

    All in all, I would say that this album is a MUST-LISTEN. I was actually surprised that there was no review for this album on the Org considering how genuinely crafted and...and... Fuck, this album is just fantastic. Not only is this one of my favorite albums, I’d say that this is one of the definitive hardcore records of the 2000s. It’s sad to see that this album did not receive enough attention because Bullet Treatment has great potential, and The Mistake really proves their craftsmanship as musicians.
  • The Dudesons In America...

    Just wanted to give a shout out to THE DUDESONS, the 1st season of their show on MTV "The Dudesons In America" on MTV was awesome, and we're stoked on how many Bullet Treatment songs they used throughout the season. Hoping the 2nd season is just a crazy and has some more BT on the way.
    Check it out!
