5.0 out of 5 stars A modern Hardcore Classic, May 30, 2006

I myself first became aquainted with Bane with album "The Note", which might I add is a killer album. After buying that and loving it I bought this masterpiece of a Hardcore album. I had to listen to it a few times before I apreciated the true beauty of this album. With Bane your getting Hardcore at it's finest, not metalcore. Lots of gang vocals and positive lyrics, it's not to fast, really heavy, or full of huge breakdowns, it's just really good hardcore.

5.0 out of 5 stars Priceless, July 14, 2004

Never have I been inspired by an album like this. First, if you don't like old school hardcore, then you shouldn't be reviewing this anyway. THe album is an awesome blend of old school a new styles. Couldn't have been done better. Ali vs. Fraiser is the most inspirational song of our time. Amazing.

It's Bane. It's the return of positive hardcore. In the wake of the metal-emo flood, and riding the crest of the inevitable backlash wave, is Bane from Massachussetts. Complete with numerous singalongs, pile-ons, plenty of opportunities to wave your finger in the air, and even a bit of no-apologies mosh parts thrown in, Give Blood is the next natural step for Bane. What I don't quite understand is the nearly across-the-board panning of this album by Bane fans - particularly when compared with their first outing, "Holding This Moment" (a collection of 7inches and such). The fact of the matter is, there is very little stylistic change from that album to Give Blood. The music - particularly the guitars - is a little thicker and layered. That's it. Everything else remains the same. So if you like Holding This Moment and haven't yet heard Give Blood, don't listen to the words around you. Give this record a good solid try. It won't disappoint. In fact, it just might become your favorite.
