Many kids mistake BFMV too be "Heavy metal". This is very very very untrue, although they do perform several Cover songs from Metallica and Ozzy they are still part of the Nu-Metal wave.
Nu-metal being the new wave of music that tries to inmate metal with many bands (but not all) screaming style vocals.
Whatever anyone says, They are considers "metal core" and "Screamo"
And anything "screamo" is usually "emo" and before people freak BFMV has done some emo-core songs.
"Scream aim fire" - that sounds emo enough for me.
Bullet for my valentine should not be confused with other genres. Too help with you knowing what really is metal try using Encyclopedia Metalum

Although it is the name for a popular Screamo band, it can also be used colloquially as a definition for that which is sub-par particularly in the realm of heavy metal and, to a lesser extent, emo/screamo/punk/alternative music. But really, who digs screamo music in the first place? Let this be a lesson to you.
1. Tim: How bad was that gig we checked out last night?
Blake: Pretty shit.
Tim: Yeah, totally "Bullet for my valentine".
Blake: No doubt.

Great Metalcore band. Signed by Trustkill Records in the USA. Currently touring the US. Their lyrics do have an emo side. They however, are NOT emo. And the people who listen to them are definitely NOT emo. Go to their concert, look and see. I saw 1 fat goth guy. No emos. The rest were crazed highschool metalheads.
BFMV Fan: *listening to music*
Asshole: What ya listening to?
BFMV Fan: Bullet for My Valentine
Asshole: Go cut urself emo child.
BFMV Fan: *beats the living shit out of the asshole*
Asshole: *cries in corner*
BFMV Fan: Who's the emo now bitch!?
Asshole: *Takes a gun to his head*

A band from Brigend, Wales. Their main genre is Metalcore, however they do pull from some Emocore. Their guitar is very metalish, and they have some really nice riffs. Their songs contain a lot of screaming, so if you don't like that type of singing, don't listen to them. They are very good live, and put on a great show. They recently released "The Poison", containing their most well-known song "Tears Don't Fall". They have four members, Matthew Tuck, Michael Paget, Jason James and Michael Thomas.
(At a concert...)
Matthew Tuck (frontman of Bullet For My Valentine) : ARE YOU READY FOR SOME BRITISH METAL?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Person 1: HELL YES I AM.
Person 2: ME TOO.
*start moshing*

B4MV is a METALCORE band, it's obviusous and if u don't believe me u should look on the official website, where it clearly says they play metalcore.It ain't emo, not heavy, not even hardcore.It's METALCORE, and it rulz.4 eva, the poison
e.g. -Where did bullet for my valentine start?
- New age metal combined with a hardcore style, => metalcore

One of the best bands I've heard yet. Period. They aren't emo, that's gotta be the most stupid label I've heard for their music yet. This is some of the best music I've heard in years, especially compared to all the other crap people listen to.
