"" Formed in 1992 and comprised of members Scott Angelacos (vocals), Matt Easley (guitar), Art Legre (bass), and John Stewart Jr. (drums), Bloodlet specializes in a form of hardcore that's even more angst ridden and brutal than most of their counterparts. Issuing several singles straight away, Bloodlet signed on with the renowned hardcore label Victory not long after their formation, resulting in a trio of releases during the mid to late ‘90s -- 1995's Eclectic (a compilation of their aforementioned early singles), 1996's Entheogen, and 1998's Seraphim Fall, before splitting up. Little was heard from Bloodlet's former members, as most dispersed to other locales. But during their retirement, several up and coming hardcore groups began name checking Bloodlet as an important influence (especially Eighteen Visions, among others), and by late 2001, Bloodlet had reunited and was rehearsing once more. Hooking up with renowned indie producer Steve Albini, Bloodlet issued their fourth release overall in 2002, the hard hitting Three Humid Nights in the Cypress Trees -- picking up exactly where they'd left off several years earlier.

Bloodlet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
the need to inflict suckle my faith strike with fluid precision twine to wrap life all militia prophesized inside the voice bellowed your screams are not but whispers outside your eyes attempt to break the tower trying to move the sun now bask in your glory so profound it no longer warms me there is no fault here there is no shame nursing the burns laughing as I bleed long cast from your cult waning memories of your love I found myself in your conviction there is pain in your insecurity my eyes sewn shut all scriptures are written in the blood of the defeated damn your sinless grins and your hallowed existence propaganda has no emotion
The lyrics of the song "Something Wicked" by Bloodlet are dark, intense, and full of imagery related to morality, conformity, and rebellion. The first lines, "My eyes sewn shut collaboration in the shadows armed with forked tongues damn your sinless grins and your hallowed existence," suggest a feeling of being trapped and silenced by the expectations of the world, and the desire to rebel and reject them. The imagery of "forked tongues" and "sinless grins" highlights the hypocrisy and superficiality of those who pretend to follow moral codes without really understanding or believing in them.
The next lines express a sense of disillusionment and disgust with the state of society: "I witnessed the charred remains of moralities grip propaganda has no emotion chaotic voices beckon from a burning pedestal perception dulls to apathy as you sleep." Here, the singer describes the destruction of morality as something that has already happened, leaving chaos and emptiness in its wake. The idea that "propaganda has no emotion" suggests that the messages we receive from the media and those in power are often empty and manipulative, designed to control us rather than inspire us.
As the song progresses, the lyrics become more violent and aggressive: "my eyes are bleeding but my grin is stained as I ready myself for the killing time," "where you see beauty I see decay your virgin my slut the freaks is my reflection," "suckle my faith strike with fluid precision twine to wrap life all militia prophesized inside." These lines suggest a desire to lash out against the world and break free from its constraints, using violence and rebellion as a means to do so.
Overall, the lyrics of "Something Wicked" paint a picture of a world that is corrupt and oppressive, and the desire of the singer to reject it and find freedom through violence and rebellion.
