Biography:
Bullet for My Valentine are a Welsh heavy metal band from Bridgend, formed in 1998.

Jeff Killed John recorded six songs which were not released; two of these tracks were reworked later in their career as Bullet for My Valentine. Financial difficulties dictated the name change, which was followed by a change in music direction. In 2002, the band secured a five-album deal with Sony BMG.
