Bring me the Horizon

  Bring me the Horizon is from Sheffield, Yorkshire. They are a Brittish metalcore band formed in 2004. Bring me the Horizon is, Oliver Sykes as lead singer, Lee Malia as lead guitarist, Matt Kean as bassist, and Matt Nicholls as drummer and Jordan Fish as keyboardist.
  They currently have four albums already realeased and one they are coming out with on April 29, 2013 called, Sempiternal. Their first album, Count Your Blessings, was released on October 30, 2006. Then in 2008, thier album, Suicide Season was released and Suicide Season: Cut up! was released a year later. The last album, There is a hell, believe me I've seen it. There is a heaven, let's keep it a secret, which was released in October 4, 2010.
  The single, Shadow Moses has been released in January, and a lot of people seem to like it. I watched an interview with lead singer, Oli Sykes, and he said he was really stoked for this album and he's more confident with this album than any of BMTH's other albums. He said, in the past he would always second guess himself with the songs and albums, but he feels this one is perfect.
  Bring me the Horizon has been influenced by emo, death metal, and grind core, with bands like, The Dillenger Escape Plan, Everytime I die, and Poisen the Well. The more they started making music the more their influence started to change to some heavy metal bands like, At The Gates, Pantera, Orange Goblin and some progressive rock bands like, Pink Floyd, and Dire Straits.
  This year already, Jona Weinhofen, ex rythm guitarist and backing vocalist for Bring me the Horizon left for unknown reasons. No one released why he left or who's idea it was because they didn't want drama, but he didn't even say if he left on good terms or not, but he is still with his other band, I Killed the Prom Queen.
  Bring me the Horizon got their name from the last line of the movie Pirates of the Carribean: Curse of the Black Pearl, when Jack Sparrow says, "Now bring me that horizon.". Also, Oli sykes his own clothing line called Drop Dead Clothing.
