Bullets (Creed song)

"Bullets" is the second single from Creed's third album, Weathered. It is regarded as the heaviest single of the band.

Meaning

"Bullets" departs heavily from the previously established "anthemic rock" sound heard throughout most of Creed's recent singles leading up to Weathered. The song was written during a period of difficulty for the band where they were forced to dismiss Brian Marshall from the band for comments he made on a radio show. There are currently two versions. Some believe that Marshall defended Scott Stapp in response to Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit's criticisms on a radio show. Most, however, believe that Marshall was dismissed due to his criticism of Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder, not Fred Durst. According to Stapp, in a later interview, Marshall left the band on his own wishes.

The song is very aggressive both lyrically and musically; it has a thick distorted sound with heavy palm muted guitar riffs and pounding double kick drums.

Music video

A video was also released with the single which was also aired on MTV as a follow up to Creed's first single, My Sacrifice. Developed by Vision Scape Interactive, the team behind games such as Twisted Metal 4, were responsible for characterizing and developing the storyline in the video with the band. The team spent $473,000, and dedicated 15 employees working more than 18 hours a day to complete the project, according to Matt McDonald, President of Vision Scape.

Bullets (Editors song)

"Bullets" is a song by British post-punk revival band Editors and is featured on their 2005 debut album, The Back Room. It was originally released 24 January 2005 as their first single. The single was mixed by Cenzo Townshend and the video made for the song was directed by Mike Brady. Both editions of the original single were limited to 500 copies. It was then re-released 26 September 2005 as the fourth single from the album (see 2005 in British music). A new single version was re-recorded and produced by Jacknife Lee and a second video was made for the song, directed by Martin de Thurah.

Bullet (disambiguation)

A bullet is a projectile propelled by a firearm, sling, or air gun.

Bullet may also refer to:

Entertainment

Music

Caliber

In guns, particularly firearms, caliber or calibre is the approximate internal diameter of the barrel, or the diameter of the projectile it fires, in hundredths or sometimes thousandths of an inch. For example, a 45 caliber firearm has a barrel diameter of .45 of an inch. Barrel diameters can also be expressed using metric dimensions, as in "9mm pistol." When the barrel diameter is given in inches, the abbreviation "cal" (for "caliber") can be used. For example, a small-bore rifle with a diameter of 0.22 inches can be referred to as .22 or a .22 cal; however, the decimal point is generally dropped when spoken, making it a "twenty-two caliber" or a "two-two caliber rifle".

In a rifled barrel, the distance is measured between opposing lands or grooves; groove measurements are common in cartridge designations originating in the United States, while land measurements are more common elsewhere. Good performance requires a bullet to closely match the groove diameter of a barrel to ensure a good seal.

Calibre (musician)

Calibre, birth name Dominick Martin, is a drum and bass and liquid funk, music producer and DJ hailing from Belfast, Northern Ireland. He started producing at a young age. He is a classically trained musician, playing a variety of musical instruments. Martin started producing Drum and Bass in 1995 and his first signed release was credited under the now defunct Quadrophonic label.

He soon came to the attention of drum and bass DJ Fabio, who signed Calibre to his Creative Source label. While studying Fine Arts at the University of Ulster in Belfast, he became interested in the music of John Cage whose work was influential in titling Martin’s first album release Musique Concrète in 2001. Since his initial releases in 2001, Martin has been known for his consistent signature style and sound.

Short Circuits Magazine refers to him as "one of the quietest people in drum and bass". He shares tracks with only a small circle of friends. Martin has no website or even any blog presence to distribute his tracks online.

Movement (clockwork)

In horology, a movement, also known as a caliber, is the mechanism of a clock or watch, as opposed to the case, which encloses and protects the movement, and the face which displays the time. The term originated with mechanical timepieces, whose clockwork movements are made of many moving parts. It is less frequently applied to modern electronic or quartz timepieces, where the word module is often used instead.

In modern mass-produced clocks and watches, the same movement is often inserted into many different styles of case. When buying a quality pocketwatch from the mid-19th to the mid-20th century, for example, the customer would select movement and case individually. Mechanical movements get dirty and the lubricants dry up, so they must periodically be disassembled, cleaned, and lubricated. One source recommends servicing intervals of: 3–5 years for watches, 15–20 years for grandfather clocks, 10–15 years for wall or mantel clocks, 15–20 years for anniversary clocks, and 7 years for cuckoo clocks, with the longer intervals applying to antique timepieces.
