About:
Started as a recording project in the late 90’s, it wasn’t until 2001 that the work ethic that produced a slew of underground releases drove Fuck The Facts towards full band status and into the live arena. Since then, the Ottawa-based unit has barely stopped for a breath of reconsideration, associating themselves with some of the biggest labels in underground extreme music, as well as continuing a steady output of DIY releases. Having toured hundreds of thousands of kilometers throughout North America and Europe, guitarist/founder Topon Das, vocalist Mel Mongeon, drummer Mathieu Vilandré, bassist/vocalist Marc Bourgon, and guitarist Johnny Ibay have performed at some of the biggest festivals and sweated it out in some of the smallest basements. From 2006-2011 Fuck The Facts released three albums via underground powerhouse label, Relapse Records. Upon the completion of their contract, the quintet decided it was time to put the finishing touches on the proverbial full-circle, returning to the world of fierce independence and creative control. Their most recent releases were produced entirely at their own studio, self-released, and shows Fuck The Facts efforts as an entity continuing to grow musically and personally while developing a deeper understanding of what significance their art holds to them. As one of the longest running and most recognizable names in Canadian Grindcore, FUCK THE FACTS continue to deliver their brand of “Bastardized Grindcore” with no end in sight.

“explosive and ferocious” – Metal Sucks
“Fuck The Facts aren’t your average grindcore band.” – No Clean Singing

“The Hatred Inside looks like it will be one of Edmonton’s next big albums, helping to push not only this city’s scene further, but also Alberta’s scene as a whole further into the global metal consciousness. Fans of Devildriver, Pantera, and Jungle Rot that have not heard Bleed, I recommend you check them out.” Crown of Viserys
“Bleed are by all accounts a very theatrical band, in the tradition of Gwar or White Zombie, but all this would mean nothing if they didn’t have the tunes. Thankfully they do. Their songs are both heavy and catchy, coming on at times as a cross between Alice Cooper and classic Overkill. In fact, this album has some of the best bass and drums playing since Overkill’s Taking Over (1987), Under The Influence (1988) and The Years of Decay (1989). The guitars are superb as well, always serving the song with some great solos, and excellently named vocalist Robert Kreed has a powerful original voice. It’s criminal these fellows aren’t signed to a label. If this album had come out in the days when people bought their music, Bleed would be up there with the Panteras of the world.” – Hellbound
“The vocals were hardcore, the guitars were heavy in every sense of the word, and the drums had a nice, solid beat throughout “The Hatred Inside”. Another cool tid bit about this album is that according to the vocalist, Robert Kreed, “Each song is told by the perspective of the victim or the victimizer with one common theme of misery.” That’s pretty neat if you ask me….“The Hatred Inside” is an interesting album that should be checked out by anyone looking for intensity with a different theme.” – Metal Addicts
“The Hatred Inside’ is a nice throwback and a perfect combination of horror and thrash metal. This quartet already proved that they can put up a convincing live show so there’s little to stop them now from rising to the upper regions of today’s metal scene. There they will have to compete with bands with a more modern style but Bleed shouldn’t worry. Talent always prevails…” – Merchants of Air
“BLËED was the big attraction of the night. The crowd of eager metal heads was treated to a stage show that would leave anyone impressed. Fake blood, multiple costume changes and horror props all make BLËED shows absolutely insane. Especially when backed by loud and furious death metal, complete with blasphemous themes and zombie babies spewing Jägermeister to the crowd. This is a band that puts a tremendous amount of effort into their stage presence and the results are such that I could see BLËED live time and time again without ever getting bored.” – Random Metal Musings
“Tough, loud, and proud of their sound Bleed are here to make your ears well… bleed with music that is brash and crude, the kind of thing that will punish you until you genuflect in acknowledgement of the awesomeness that is this band.” – Two Guys Metal Reviews
“a legit slab of in-your-face metal that would make for a fine addition to any one’s personal collection!” – Heavy Metal Time Machine
“Bleed knows the horror genre very well…solid and modern thrash metal” – Lords of Metal
“The songs on this album are precisely the sort of collected anarchistic insanity you would expect from a Thrash Metal band. Songs like ‘Blood Ashes’ and ‘Conquer’ are all over the place and yet perfectly aligned – it’s all mad, savage raiding and mindless destruction that is well thought out and cleverly planned and executed.” 925 Rebellion
“An impressive release that needs to be sought out and an act that deserves support. This is thrash and yet so much more!” -Thy Demons Be Scribblin
“A bit thrash, a pinch of power metal, and some good ol classic metal.” – WORT 89.9FM (Madison, WI) Mosh Pit Radio

Track by Track: The meaning behind the album and the songs described by vocalist Robert Kreed.
The front and back cover is a picture of a person tearing themselves open with their own hands. Opening the CD is essentially tearing the person open to reveal what lies within. The Hatred Inside.
“The Hatred Inside” is a look inside, an autopsy, of a vile and very disturbed being. Inside there are horrific stories of torture, mutilation, genocide, and blasphemy. Each song is told by the perspective of the victim or the victimizer with one common theme of misery.
Track 1. “The Hatred Inside” is an intro and the beginning of the autopsy where the listen delves into the madness about to be unleashed.
Track 2. “Deceiver” Is a battle of religious view points and whether to embrace or denounce God.
Track 3. “Committed” is a tale of love gone wrong where everything a person once admired eventually is destroyed by the same person.
Track 4. “Blood Ashes” describes a battle of demonic evil waging genocide upon every living mortal leaving nothing to thrive.
Track 5. “Suffocate” is from the perspective of a Priest who is also a child killer. The Priest ends up being killed only yo return from the grave and continue his heinous act of murder.
Track 6. “Murder Baby” A token them song for us and a crowd favorite is a song about how one bad decision leads to another. The unfortunate results spiral out of control, claiming lives and one’s own sanity.
Track 7. “Xombimind” is told from the perspective of someone who is slowly being turned into a zombie and reflects how their life was as the painful reality of decay sets in.
Track 8. “Beginnings” tells of savagery lets loose among civilization. People cannibalizing each other and committing violent acts without thought.
Track 9. “Obelisk” depicts the return of a demonic lord who crushes all who oppose and proceeds to burn their planet to ash and destroying the embodiment of God.
Track 10. “Conquer” is a story from the view point of an invading viking army who simply lay waste to their enemies and claim the land as their own.
Track 11. “Hate March Kill” is the final destruction of everything alive. No one survives as religion is eradicated, civilizations are left in ruin, and the inescapable realization that your time too has come. The outro of this song are also the final seconds of the disturbed individual from “The Hatred Inside.” Death claims yet another.

BLEED is an Edmonton based band bringing horror, mayhem, and pain through a medium that brushes on brutal death metal. Their live show combines costumed performances with crushing, groovy thrash peppered with blood. The band pays homage to theatrical metal kings, GWAR, through their own original material and costume design. They guarantee that fans will be chanting along with their grotesque lyrics from such songs as ‘Murder Baby’ complete with appropriate props to accompany much of the material they write.
The blood covered four piece is composed of Ron (guitarist), Rob (vocalist), Mike (Bass) who also plays bass in Samandriel, and Chuck (Drums) who also plays in Idolatry and Ivardensphere. They draw inspiration from many bands; Slayer for their in your face delivery and lyrical content, GWAR for their stage show and lyrical content, Strapping Young Lad for their chaotic sound and comedic entertainment, Zimmer’s Hole for their stage show and variety of song style, and DevilDriver for their overall heavy/borderline death metal sound.
Their song writing strategy is simple: start with a guitar riff, structure it, and map it out, from there they add bass and drums, rehearse liberally, and continue to craft the instrumentals until they are completely ‘fleshed’ out. Lyrics are usually written in one sitting by Robert (vocals) once the emotion is found a story begins to unfold, be it about war, demons, death, torture, and other unpleasantries
The band has released a self-titled EP in 2014, and plan to release their debut full-length in Fall 2015, accompanying it will be a booklet with individual band photos, grotesque artistic imagery, and lyrics for the songs. Fans and crowds are guaranteed to be covered in blood by the end of the show with their endless ferocity.
