The band's music
The name Brodequin was originally chosen by Jamie Bailey to sum up the group and their content. In Bailey's own words, "The brodequin was an instrument of torture designed to destroy the victim's legs by hammering wedges of wood or metal between the legs and boards tied tightly around them. In some cases the damage was so severe the marrow of the bones would flow freely from the wounds." http://www.lordsofmetal.nl/showinterview.php? id=64& lang=en Interview on Lords of Metal website, accessed 20 Feb 2008 The group's lyrical content holds close to its name, often referring to torture devices through time. Their lyrics are typical for the death metal scene overall, with the frequent references to death, dismemberment, torture, murder and sexual abuse that characterize the genre. The group would intend, however, to give far more of a historical basis for its lyrics than other bands. Jamie Bailey is himself a history graduate, http://www.vampire-magazine.com/interviews/brodequin/39062 "It isn't supposed to sound like a Madonna". Interview in Vampire Magazine website, accessed 20 Feb 2008 and most of his lyrics are based upon real historical events and implements.
