DESCRIPTION:
2x12" Clear Vinyl On This Alternative Rock LP From Sheffield Natives - 6th Studio LP.
Bring Me The Horizon have some balls on them. They didn’t have to release an album like ‘amo’, they could have just repeated what they did on 2015’s ‘That’s The Spirit’ and channelled the essence of ‘Hybrid Theory’, whacking big stadium rock banger after big stadium rock banger to cement their reputation as the biggest band in metal.
But BMTH have never been a band content to be the biggest in their own field, not when there are far greater territorial gains to be made over in the nebulous mainstream where Imagine Dragons are considered a rock act. If you’ve read any interviews with frontman Oli Sykes or keyboardist Jordan Fish over the last few years then this album’s content will not surprise you. They’ve been gleefully running their mouths about modern rock, describing the whole genre as “mostly shite” and claiming that they themselves prefer the forward-thinking pop of acts like Banks, serpentwithfeet and Twenty One Pilots.
So ‘amo’ seems to be their attempt at making an album they would like to listen to themselves if you are a member of the band Bring Me The Horizon, you will love this record. If you aren’t, well then your enjoyment of this wildly inconsistent album will depend on your tendency to value uncritical self-belief above all other considerations (up to and including basic listenability

Bring Me the Horizon is a British rock band formed in Sheffield, England, in 2004. The group currently consists of lead vocalist Oli Sykes, drummer Matt Nicholls, guitarist Lee Malia, and bassist Matt Kean. They are signed to RCA Records globally and to Columbia Records in the United States.
The band released its debut album "Count Your Blessings" in 2006. The album featured a deathcore style that received mixed reactions and generally unfavorable reviews from critics. In 2008, the band released its second album, "Suicide Season," marking a shift in musical direction. This release is often viewed as a significant point in the band's development, receiving more positive critical and commercial attention.
Their third album, "There Is a Hell Believe Me I've Seen It. There Is a Heaven Let's Keep It a Secret." was released in 2010 and expanded the band's sound by incorporating elements of classical music, electronica, and pop. The band's major label debut, "Sempiternal," released in 2013, achieved commercial success, earning Gold certification in Australia and Silver in the United Kingdom.
In 2015, "That's the Spirit" debuted at number two on both the UK Albums Chart and the US Billboard 200. Their sixth studio album, "Amo," released in 2019, became their first album to reach number one in the UK. That same year, they released "Music to Listen To..." followed by "Post Human: Survival Horror" in 2020. "Post Human: Nex Gen," the second release in the planned "Post Human" series, was issued as their seventh studio album in May 2024.
The band has also released two extended plays and two live albums. They have received multiple accolades, including seven Kerrang! Awards, a BRIT Award for Best Rock/Alternative Act, and two Grammy Award nominations. Bring Me the Horizon has sold over 5 million records worldwide and has reached the top of the UK Rock & Metal Singles Chart with songs such as "Throne," "Drown," "Mantra," "Parasite Eve," "Teardrops," and "Kool-Aid."
Their early musical style, exemplified by "Count Your Blessings," is often categorized as deathcore. Over time, the band's sound has evolved, incorporating elements of metalcore, electronica, pop, and hip hop.
