Inspired by groups like Refused and the Mars Volta, Tucson-based post-hardcore quintet the Bled burst onto the national scene with their 2005 Vagrant debut, Found in the Flood. By that point the band's lineup featured vocalist James Munoz, guitarists Ross Ott and Jeremy Talley, and a rhythm section of Darren Simoes (ba**) and Mike Pedicone (drums), though like most bands they'd endured some lineup changes in the past. Previous to the Vagrant deal, the Bled had been on Fiddler, where they issued the 2003 album Pa** the Flask. ~ Johnny Loftus, All Music Guide
