Bullet For My Valentine's debut era began with the explosive Hand of Blood EP, setting the stage for their breakthrough album The Poison, which quickly established the band as leaders of modern British metal. In 2024, to celebrate the release's 20th anniversary, the album was remastered and released in an expansive boxset featuring 4LPs, new artwork, collectibles, and the first-ever vinyl pressing of Live at Brixton. Now, the Hand of Blood EP returns as a standalone release, giving both longtime fans and new collectors the chance to own the recording that sparked Bullet For My Valentine's legacy.
