Blessed By A Broken Heart


Blessed By a Broken Heart



         
What happens when you mix the playful taste of the ‘80s with face melting fire of metal? Its ok I’ll give you a minute to think but you have to hurry, time is running out. Ok fine, I’ll tell you. The end result of this insane mix of musical taste is the one and only Blessed by a Broken Heart. Formed in 2003 in Montreal Canada first as a concept band but soon added the sound of “thrash guitar” to the mix  BBABH’s album “Pedal To The Metal” is a prime example that the new genre “dance metal” has some serious ass kicking potential.  I am a huge fan of the cheesy ‘80s hair metal bands and I believe any band who adds a keyboard to metal deserves kudos.  Every song on “Pedal to the Metal” is a compliment to each other but I would have to choose my favorite, I would choose “Don’t Stop”. The intro takes me back to the days of Survivor and Europe ; but don’t get too comfortable with the sound, just as soon as the keyboard is cued, the band unleashes a “trash-induced heavy metal coma” upon the listeners. They are currently in the studio working on their third album so be on the lookout for the release as well as accompanying world tour. Check out their Myspace and Facebook pages for more info and the video link for “Move Your Body”
