Bring Me the Horizon

Bring Me the Horizon Biography

Fronted by a floppy-haired clothing designer who looks quite a bit like an emo version of Saturday Night Live's Andy Samberg and sings in an unusually high-pitched vocal style suggesting that the Darkness' Justin Hawkins was a key unacknowledged influence, Bring Me the Horizon aren't the average deathcore band. The group was formed in Sheffield, England, during 2004; singer Oliver Sykes, guitarists Lee Malia and Curtis Ward, bassist Matt Kean, and drummer Matt Nicholls originally established their own label, Thirty Days of Night, to release their debut EP, This Is What the Edge of Your Seat Was Made For, in 2005. Upon signing to the higher-profile label Visible Noise (Lostprophets, etc.), the EP was reissued the following year. Bring Me the Horizon's full-length debut, Count Your Blessings, was released in October 2006. ~ Stewart Mason, All Music Guide
