Fist Full of Bees by Bride

Fist Full Of Bees is the tenth album by the band Bride. It is the band's attempt to make an album within the nu metal genre of the early 2000s. It was the first and last album with Absolute Records, as the singer Dale Thompson stated in an interview in 2003: "Nothing happened and that was the problem. The record company was not answering questions, not moving and had no real plan for the record, so it died. I got us out of the contract by discussing my personal beliefs and philosophies with the head of the label. He and I did not see eye to eye, so he released us." The album was heavily criticized by both Bride fans and reviewers who did not know what to make of the album. The album mixed in rap-core metal which was uniquely different from their entire musical catalog.
