Blackhole - Scared To Change - Dead Hearts

Fast forward 2 years and 2009 finds the same 5 friends fresh from the studio with a debut album with Colin Richardson's (Slipknot/Machine Head/Fear Factory producer/mixer) name on the box. 'Recording our debut album was an amazing experience,' smiles Carter. 'Working with both Colin and with Jeff and Ginge (Bullet For My Valentine)... to have these people be into what we are doing enough to want to work with us gave us a lot of confidence.' The guitarist chips back in, 'It taught us a lot of lessons about recording, and the professional attitude that you have to maintain throughout. Jeff and Ginge were great to work with and really captured the best of our sound in the studio. I honestly don't think that we could have written and recorded a better album.'

The debut release from the record is lead track Don't Cry; 1 minute 32 seconds of pure by-the-balls introduction which the band insisted went up for free download from their website as a thanks to fans who have followed and supported the band through 2 years of life on the road. 'We had a song called I Am which was never recorded and I was pretty low when I wrote the lyrics,' explains Carter. Don't Cry is musically very similar; short and to the point... it's basically I Am part 2. It's about finally being at a point where I can say I'm in control.'
