Bleed the Dream is an American rock band from Southern California. They broke up in 2007 after releasing their new album "Killer Inside" with a new line-up.

Keith Thompson had left Baltimore for Los Angeles a year earlier to follow his musical career. A month into 2003, Brandon Thomas left Baltimore to after speaking with Keith. Bleed the Dream had been formed by spring of that year.[citation needed]

They went to LA. For the next year, the band polished their sound and piled in a van, touring their way from city to city. They garnered them a spot on the Warped Tour without even an album under their belts. They were asked back to join Warped Tour officially in 2004 and 2005.[citation needed]

In 2004, Bleed The Dreams's guitarist, Dave Aguilera, created his own label, Maphia Records. It subsequently released of the band's 2 EPs: the rock-driven "Awake" on Noize Pollution and the unplugged and acoustic "Asleep". They followed with a DVD "No Apologies" reminiscent of the CKY videos. The DVD was edited by Scott Gottlieb from pieces of tour footage and behind the scene fan cameras.

Their success and rapid-growing fan base was noted by Warped Tour creator, Kevin Lyman. Realizing that Bleed the Dream was onto something, Lyman created his own label, WARCON Enterprises LLC, signed the band, and released their first full-length album, "Built By Blood" in May 2005.

Spring of 2005 landed Bleed the Dream on the Taste of Chaos tour featuring The Used and My Chemical Romance. Unfortunately, as their star was rising, Scott became sick and weak, unable to handle the rough life on the road. A year earlier, he fell down during a performance while on a national tour. The band cut their set short to rush him to the hospital. Scott was diagnosed as having leukemia. He lost his short battle with cancer on April 10, 2005, only two weeks before the band released "Built by Blood". Their CD release party at the Ottobar in Baltimore, Maryland on April 23, was tearful and triumphant in the same breath. Friends and family came out to pay their respects to Scott and support the band in the next phase of their life without him.

Bleed the Dream finished out 2005 by joining Taste Of Chaos Europe with headliners The Used and Story of the Year. In December, the band took some time off to write and audition new drummers. They now have a permanent drummer, Tom, who has recently entered the band. Brandon Thomas was soon let go from the band and replaced by Mark Holmes, former lead singer of the now-defunct band Like Yesterday.

In July 2006, the band recorded a new album in Canada with producers Garth Richardson and Ben Kaplan. The 13 new tracks recorded became the highly anticipated second record, "Killer Inside." In late 2006, the band finished filming a music video for the song "Closer," the first single off their new album, "Killer Inside". The video shows band members playing grim reaper type stalkers to the lead singer, and finishes with the band playing paramedics to their bloody lead singer. The album also features tracks "It Takes A Fall," "Tell Someone Who Cares," and "Vampires Don't Kill For the Money."
