Jeff Killed John (EP)
| Untitled | |
|---|---|
Jeff Killed John is the last EP by Welsh nu metal[1][2][3] band Jeff Killed John, before changing their name to Bullet for My Valentine. This EP also marks the last recorded material with bassist Nick Crandle, before Jason James replaced him.[4] Many song elements from this EP would be reworked into later tracks for Bullet for My Valentine music: "Routine Unhappiness" contains riff elements that would later become "Tears Don't Fall," with lyrical content that would appear on "10 Years Today;" [5] "Nation2Nation" would eventually become the sampler track "Turn to Despair"; and "All These Things I Hate (Revolve Around Me)" is an early demo of the song of the same name that would eventually appear on Bullet for My Valentine's debut album The Poison.[6]
