Blessed by a Broken Heart - All Is Fair In Love & War

Originally released in 2004 on the Facedown imprint label, Blood & Ink. Brutal Planet Records rescued this incredibly rare and impossible-to-find album from certain obscurity! Hailing from Canada, BBaBH's later albums would be much AOR and melodic in nature. With their debut All Is Fair... The band flirts with the 80's rock/metal vibe, but ultimately smashes us in the face with a full-on death/metalcore assault that would have Chuck Norris wetting his panties. Expect everything you love about Atreyu, Bleeding Through, and yes... The almighty Motley Crue. The guitars are heavy and moshable, especially in the beginning tracks "Another Day/Another War" and "That Knife Ain't For Butter." There is actually some very melodic singing that evens everything out, like in "Some Kind Of Wonderful" and "Courting Mary." Pick this up for one of the most interesting Christian metal albums ever released!
