I've never been a fan of Bring Me the Horizon. I'm not a scene kid and I know Oli Sykes pissed on a girl, but I actually listen to bands because of the music, not the image.
The new album "There Is a Hell, Believe Me I've Seen It. There Is a Heaven, Let's Keep It a Secret" has been on repeat on my iTunes for the past week and the my verdict is that it is nothing short of impressive. Now if you are a BMTH fan you may disagree with me, but I prefer this new sound as oppose to "Count Your Blessings" (the first album - one which I never really liked). The second album "Suicide Season" was different and much more metalcore than the first album, but "There Is a Hell..." takes the genre to a new level.
With interesting featured performances from artists such as Lights and Josh Francheschi (Singer from 'You Me At Six'), the album's sound varies between songs. Despite this musical variety, the overall style is not lost and the musical quality is consistent throughout. This isn't an album review so I won't babble on about it but I would highly recommend giving it a listen, especially if you were never keen on BMTH's earlier stuff.
The song featuring Josh Francheschi, titled "Fuck" is possibly one of the best songs on the album. Listen to it here
