Bloodspattered by The Cherry Point: A Weird, Wild Ride You Won’t Forget
Alright, let’s talk about Bloodspattered. Yeah, that’s the album. It came out in 2004 under Body Count, and it’s one of those things where you’re not sure if you should laugh, cry, or just sit there staring into space. The genre says “Non-Music,” but honestly? That label doesn’t even begin to cover what this thing is. It’s like someone took a blender, threw in some industrial noise, broken dreams, and maybe a haunted VHS tape, and hit puree.
Now, I gotta mention this track called Untitled. And yeah, no name—just vibes. This song hits you right in the gut from the first second. It’s got these jagged, screeching sounds that feel like your headphones are fighting back. There’s something raw about it, almost like it’s spitting in your face while whispering secrets in your ear at the same time. You remember it because it’s messy—but intentional messy, like when you spill coffee on your shirt but somehow look cooler for it.
Then there’s another track—I won’t say which one—that starts off all quiet and eerie, like walking through an abandoned house late at night. But then BAM! Outta nowhere, it drops this wall of sound so heavy it feels like your skull’s vibrating. Like…dude, what did I just listen to? Was that a guitar? Or was it Satan tuning his lawnmower? Who knows. All I know is my heart rate spiked, and I kinda loved it.
I mean, this whole album feels like America in 2004—chaotic, loud, unpredictable. Post-9/11 tension mixed with early internet weirdness. Listening to it now makes me feel nostalgic for a time I didn’t even live through properly. Does that make sense? Probably not, but neither does Bloodspattered, so we’re even.
Here’s the kicker though—after listening to this chaos soup, I started thinking: What if music doesn’t need rules? What if art isn’t supposed to be pretty or perfect? Maybe it’s meant to be ugly, confusing, and kinda brilliant in its own messed-up way. Kinda like life itself.
Oh, and fun fact—the band's from the US, but after hearing this, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were from Mars. Just saying.
