Bring Me the Horizon has been rocking the English and international music scenes since 2004 when the group's members formed in Sheffield. Their fourth album,
Sempiternal
was the first release by a major label and got Silver Certification in the UK and Gold in Australia. Their early sound was described by reviewers as fitting into the deathcore subgenre of metal, but later albums adopted more eclectic tracks. This band continues to perform around the world, bringing audiences the energetic songs they've become known for.

Interestingly, Bring Me the Horizon did not meet with instant critical success. Their first release,
Count Your Blessings
split the fan base and did not receive much positive attention from critics. Many felt the overall sound of this new band was a bit divisive or all over the place. When planning their second album, the band members refined things and were able to achieve both commercial and critical success. Over the years, their primary style has remained mostly metalcore, although later albums and tracks have taken forays into other genres, including both pop and electronic music.

Bring Me the Horizon's concerts have been known to get a little crazy in the past - something that many rock and metalcore fans might appreciate. Band members are usually quite animated and keep the audience engaged and the overall pulse of the show frantic. Moshing is also a common occurrence at BMTH live shows. You will most likely hear popular tracks from their breakthrough album
Sempiternal
such as Shadow Moses.
Suicide Seasons
was inducted into British magazine
Rock Sound
's Hall of Fame, and popular concert tracks from it you may hear include Sleepwalking and Can You Feel My Heart?
''The group's members have spoken at times about how they like to approach the initial writing process for reach album. Although these steps can differ from one recording to the next, the group typically retreats to a secluded location to avoid distractions. Once there, Sykes writes the lyrics while all band members work on the music.'

The band's members credit groups such as
Dillinger Escape Plan
,
Metallica
and
Every Time I Die
. Their style can be rather eclectic, and over the years they've crossed various subgenres of rock. Fans and reviewers have alternately described the sounds of BMTH as metalcore, punk rock, alternative and even pop metal.
