"The Bleeder Project is Scott's best work to date. Who would have
thought that such disparate influences as Prince, New Order and
Skinny Puppy could be meshed together so well. Scott's new sound
is one of a kind, a new genre is born."
- William York, music reviewer
"Gabriel Scott's new band, The Bleeder Project, ushers in a caustic
wave of alt/electronic rock that ignites the mind and washes truth
over the soul."
- Paul Jamison, alt. music reviewer
"Didn't I hear these guys on the Warped Tour last year?"
- A confused fan

"Burning Orange delivers an aggressive CD that's highlighted by Scott's impressive vocals. Instead of yelling, screaming or growling, this guy actually sings."
- Gavin Report (Rock Picks)
“The drum machine dominates, but can’t compete with Scott’s tortured
vocal’s” –

Bio
The Bleeder Project
From out of the seedy sex clubs, gay dive bars, and the harsh realities of life in San Franciscos Tenderloin district, crawls Gabriel Scotts new bastard brainchild, the Bleeder Project. Blending social, spiritual and sexual themes with Scotts own unique style of electronic rock, this new music (which effectively eliminates the lines between DJ culture and Rock & Roll) is dynamic, evocative and speaks to a broad and diverse audience with modern sensibility. The Bleeder Project ushers in a caustic wave of alt/electronic rock that ignites the mind and washes truth over the soul.
With the forthcoming release of their new album, Fear and Insecurity, Co-Produced by Scott and former band mate and collaborator, Mike Smith (Limp Bizkit, Snot), The Bleeder Project has already begun touring in support with live performances that have been described by fans as being like a protest march at a rave with BT, Prince, and NIN on the main stage at once! Early promotion for the new CD has seen the group in recent TV appearances and performances such as the Bay Areas S.F. Sound as well as radio programs like KDVSs radical show the Fringe.
The Bleeder Project includes Gabriel Scott, former front man of the internationally acclaimed underground metal stars Burning Orange, with whom he released the 2 most commercially successful of his various sonic explorations of the last 10 years. Frustrated by the limitations of pandering to commercial audiences, Gabriel began work on an experimental noise release with rCostelloe of Iinnion, followed by 2 solo acoustic Eps, which included several spoken word pieces, and his 3rd full-length release which continued his stylistic explorations by mixing acoustics, a new found lust for electronics and ambient noise with bitingly honest and personal lyricism. However, with his steadily increasing return to heavier guitars, and a life changing experience during a tour in Japan, when Gabriel visited the Peace Memorial Museum in Hiroshima, all of the many seeds that would soon become The Bleeder Project suddenly aligned to clearly point the way toward the future. Upon Gabriels return to the states he set out with a new found direction and sense of purpose and immediately began assembling his new band.
The Bleeder Project also features Gabriels former band mate from the early years; bassist Rev. R.K. Kräh (an actual ordained minister). One of the true road warriors of the music industry Rev. Kräh has been on the road, literally, his whole life. His music career has seen him working on numerous live and studio projects all over the country including the East Coast indie band Toy Oyster (with Scott). And guitarist William Y, who is probably best known from his work with the Tokyo based digi-rock band Japanese Babies helped form the fundamental core of the live band. With the inclusion of frequent appearances by a mysterious DJ persona, running a varied array of electronic gadgetry, the addition of all these talented performers allows Gabriel the freedom to do a little bit of everything on stage that he does on the recordings and then some. This makes for an amazingly visual and entertaining live performance.
Combining a captivatingly amazing live show with an undeniably infectious sound, the Bleeder Project is an electronic rock party experience that is as fun as it is sexy and as intelligent as it is talented. KDVSs DJ Cariad said it best, great songs, amazing live, definitely, definitely see this band!
