i love that every album is so different from the previous. a playlist can be full of bmth yet still feels complete with a huge range of genres and emotions. never gets boring.

I'm so happy Oli came clean.

"That's the spirit" is a masterpiece of an album

Jeez... never thought that a band like "Bring Me the Horizon" would still be putting albums out, after like 20 years. Time comes at you fast...

Not over censoring your video alone has earned my subscription. Good quality stuff man.

Even if I haven’t loved their music as much so bcd Sempiternal, it’s amazing to see their growth and Oli staying clean. So proud to see their success. Great review, keep it up!!!

that warped tour and Suicide Season is what got me in. I was a big parkway drive fan back in the day.
BMTH forever

day 1 fan here, love bmth, love the matts, love curtis most of alll (biased), and ofcourse the main man lee. as a 30 year old dude nothing makes me happier than seeing them evolving and finding happiness within their own band. much love to them and their music. Here is to another 20 years of music

1:12 This is the most 2004-2007 image I’ve ever seen. And I was there.

I hope he didn't become a 12 step cultist. You can get well without 90 year old religious concepts, and subjecting oneself to the passive aggressive bullying that goes on amongst peers in 12 step meetings.

I did learn some things I never knew but why skip over the drop of Suicide Season or his vocal chord issues?

@ultraboy2669 1 year ago

Do you think you can do a video on Sleeping with Sirens?

It still amazes me that these guys made it - I'm from Sheffield and shared some of the same friends etc. Saying Ollie was a poser is a massive understatement. The music always seemed to come second to the lifestyle and the attention. Even then he had a group of followers but he was so stereotypically emo that most people didn't take him seriously.

Sheffield has a pretty good rock scene and I've seen a lot of talented and creative bands here over the years who never took off but there's no real pattern to who does and doesn't.
