6人乐队 Bleeding Through 于 2000 年在加洲的 Orange County 成立。成员分别是主唱 Brandon Schieppati ，吉他 Brian Leppke 和 Scott Danough ，贝司 Ryan Wombacher ，鼓手 Derek Youngsma ，键盘 Marta 。也许与 Orange County 最不相称的就是乐队不玩 pop, ska, hardcore,甚至 punk ，而是 death metal 。他们的灵感是来自 At the Gates 和 Soilwork 这种欧洲乐队，玩的像早期的 Lamb of God 和 Killswitch Engage 。
Orange County, CA, sextet Bleeding Through formed in the year 2000 and features vocalist Brandan Schieppati, guitarists Brian Leppke and Scott Danough, bassist Ryan Wombacher, drummer Derek Youngsma, and keyboardist Marta Peterson. Probably the county's biggest misfits, Bleeding Through doesn't play pop, ska, hardcore, or even punk (though they sure look like the latter), but rather crushing aggro-death-core popular among many American post-screamo bands of the mid-2000s. Bleeding Through has ties to other area bands Eighteen Visions and Throwdown, as some members (past and present, like Schieppati and Marc Jackson) have logged time between acts. After debuting with 2002's Portrait of the Goddess, Schieppati choose to focus completely on Bleeding Through and the group signed with New Jersey-based Trustkill Records, unleashing two well-regarded albums in 2004's This Is Love, This Is Murderous and 2006's The Truth. As Bleeding Through worked on material for their next album, the first member change in three years occurred in spring 2007 when Danough was replaced by ex-I Killed the Prom Queen guitarist Jona Weinhofen.
