  • Fever (2010)
Bullet for My Valentine provides examples of the following tropes:
  • Album Title Drop - Scream Aim Fire and Fever
  • Badass Beard - Padge
  • Badass Long Hair - Matt and Padge
  • Emo - The band have been accused of being emo in the past due to pensieve lyrics and Matt Tuck's appearance during the Hand of Blood/Self titled EP.
  • Genki Girl - Jay is known for being rather hyperactive during shows or interviews
  • Mr. Fanservice: A fair share of Bullet's fans are female due to Matt's appearance.
  • Metal Scream - All 3 types.
  • Mohs Scale of Rock and Metal Hardness - 7 to 8, with their softer songs in the 4-6 range.
  • New Sound Album - Fever has more '80s Hard Rock influences than the previous albums
  • Rearrange the Song - Bullet have reworked several of their songs from Jeff Killed John into material for their debut album "The Poison" and their first EP.
  • Signature Song - Either Tears Don't Fall or Hearts Burst Into Fire.
  • The Pete Best - Original bassist Nick Crandle left when the band renamed themselves Bullet For My Valentine and shifted to Metalcore, feeling the band would get nowhere.
  • Your Cheating Heart - Room 409 is about a man walking in on his partner giving oral sex to another man. Tears Don't Fall appears to tell a story of a man cheating on his partner and feeling guilty about it.
