In 1990, Concrete Foundations named Bleeding Hearts as one of the Top unsigned bands across the U.S. Radio airplay started picking up on stations like 98 Rock and 95 YNF.Band toured with Stranger in 1992 ; they went to Ft.

Additionally the band played a 1,500-2,000 seater opening for Savatage who were great fans of the Bleeding Hearts. The band also played Livestock 1 & 2 in front of 30,000 people.Bleeding Hearts were amongst the best of them when it came to indulging in excessive amounts of Sex and Drugs and Rock n Roll as they tried to score that coveted Recording music contract.The Bleeding Hearts, like all other rock bands in the 90's, succumb to the new sound called grunge.
Album:
"Loaded Gun" is a 1992 album by the band Bleeding Hearts.This is the only complete rare album left behind by the American hard rock band Bleeding Hearts.With its characteristic raspy vocals and dry melodies, it embodies the typical sound of American hard rock. The songs are solidly constructed, the musical execution is competent, and although there are no obvious flaws, it's a shame that the album lacks any truly outstanding strengths. Given the time when a disturbing atmosphere began to spread across the hard rock scene, they were among the unfortunate bands that never made it onto the world stage.Sound very similar to Tesla and Mr.Big.
