SEPTEMBER 20TH 2007 - US TOUR OVER, UK TOUR SOON BEGINS!
The band have not long finished their first headlining US tour, and are now preparing themselves for their final UK headlining tour for the year. If you still haven't got tickets for any of the UK dates then there's still time, as not all of their dates have sold out yet. Just go to our live page and follow the relevant links to their online ticket box office.
SEPTEMBER 5TH 2007 - OLI'S COURT CASE DROPPEDIf anyone took any photos of the band while they were touring the US then please send them in to nailthecasket@mail.com and if they're of a decent enough quality then we'll gladly stick them up into our media section.
Oli Sykes' court case was dropped the other day by the Crown Prosecution Service. The case that has been going on for a few months now was brought up with the fact that the front man was accused of urinating on a 26 year old female fan at Nottingham Rock City.
SEPTEMBER 3RD 2007 - AUTUMN APPROACHESThis is the statement that was provided by the band's label Visible Noise: A charge of Common Assault against Bring Me The Horizon front man Oli Sykes has been dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service on grounds of not enough evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction. The 20 year old singer was charged with Common Assault on the 8th of April this year after a 26 year old woman he met at Rock City, Nottingham, accused him of splashing urine on her dress whilst she was present on their tour bus. The band are currently in the USA, tearing up venues, 3 weeks into a 10 week tour. They are back in the UK for their headline tour beginning 22nd November. 2008 follows up with a European headline tour in January and a six week USA headline in February and March. >> DISCUSS IT HERE!
To start off, sorry for the lack of updates in the past month. Over the summer holidays I've been far too busy with other things in my life to come onto here and keep everything up to date as possible, but now summer is over and autumn is on it's way that'll change.
AUGUST 1ST 2007 - BMTH NEWS & DROP DEAD SALE!Drop Dead Clothing have recently added a whole new range of stock to their store, including a full-printed hoodie which is available for £60.

The album will be availble from music stores across America on August 21st. In small band related news, many of you who visit the band's MySpace page will notice the change in layout. It's now of a sky blue and white colour. They've also put up some new photos for you to look at of them having a good time in Italy. And good news within the Drop Dead Clothing camp, the website is currently holding a sale right now. The following items have been reduced from their original prices to these prices. Get them while they're cheap! Boys & Girls Pants = £5 Red & Green Short Shorts = £6 Tote Bag = £5 Gym Bag (3 Colours) = £7.50
Okay guys, so I've finally got around to fixing the problems with the navbar and the page headers. But I guess most of you have already found that one out for yourselves.
JULY 21ST 2007 - FANSITE MESS-UPSI've also re-done the layout of the live dates page, and for the UK dates I have put links to purchase tickets from the band's very own ticket store! Yes, they have one. On the fansite forum, members will now notice that the banner/header has been editted and changed. And I think we can all agree that it looks a lot better on the forum than the previous one did. Expect to see more updates on the fansite during the next few weeks, including more photos, more tabs, etc.
Some of you may notice when looking around the site that there a few things that are messed-up or look out of place. This is mainly evident with the new navbars and tables of contents which I'm trying to change around a bit and make the site look a bit more fresh.

JUNE 18TH 2007 - COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS US RELEASESadly MP3 downloads have been taken off the site PERMANENTLY. This is due to legal reason, and I can't be doing with any form of law suit right now.

Good news for all you American fans out there. BMTH have recently planned to make an official US release of the debut full-length album 'Count Your Blessings'. This will save fans of the band over in America from ordering the album overseas and having it transported to them that way.

JUNE 5TH 2007 - APOLOGIESWatch and enjoy!
Sorry for the lack of site updates for the past few weeks. Due to technical problems and other personal troubles I haven't been able to access the site host for a while to make updates on the site. It's still not quite sorted out yet, but as soon as it is I'll update you with more news.
MAY 11TH 2007 - BRING ME THE SUMMER!For now I only have a few updates. The new promo video for 'Pray For Plagues' is in the very end stages of completion, and is due to be shown first on YouTube, thanks to the band's record label Visible Noise. If you have an account on the site please subscribe to their account to be one of the first few people to view the video. Shots of the video have been posted up on our forums, and will soon be posted on the fansite once a few problems have been resolved. In other news, the official band forums have been taken offline recently. I've no idea when and why this happened, but if I hear of any updates I will inform you as soon as possible. Thank you.
This was an e-mail sent out to me by the band on their mailing list...
MAY 11TH 2007 - UPDATE WITH OLI'S TRIAL"Visible Noise Presents... BRING ME THE HORIZON European festivals, an awesome promo video for 'Pray for Plagues', US tour dates, and a slot at the mighty Download festival! Bring Me The Summer! 2006 and 2007 have been the years of the 'Horizon. Some people would have you believe that they were the Years of the Dog and the Boar, but how many Kerrang awards, Readers Polls, Radio One Sessions, and MASSIVE debut albums have a mutt and a pig won? None. BMTH 1, Animal Kingdom 0. The Sheffield Metalcore mob continue to rip up the UK in style, selling out venues all over the country, both on headline tours and supporting massive acts like Lostprophets and Killswitch Engage. This Summer, the lads set their sights further afield, and head off to Germany, Belgium, Poland, Holland and Italy in June for the European festival circuit. See www.myspace.com/bmth for full Euro dates. Earlier this year, the band filmed their first promo video for the track 'Pray for Plagues'. The footage was then produced by Swedish demon animators Popcore into a dark, twisted beast of a video, ready to drop in late May 07. That bird coming out of the well in The Ring? She called to say she had nightmares after watching 'Pray for Plagues'. And who could forget Download, home of circle pits, walls of death and most importantly, headbanging, ear bleeding, METAL! BMTH return this year after a much talked about 2006 set, to show the granddads how it's done UK style. The band are also in talks about releasing debut album 'Count Your Blessings' (4/5 Kerrang, 9/10 Rock Sound) in the US late this year, followed by an American tour. More info to come..." All Europeon dates have been added to the live page of the site, and almost all of the dates have a link with them to lead you where you can find futher information and where you can purchase tickets. News on the new promo video will be added on the site as more news arrives.
Last Thursday Oliver Sykes attended the magistrates court in Nottingham with the allegations made against him over urinating and bottling a female fan. He denied all accusations and pleaded guilty to all allegations that were made. The case has been adjourned once again to September later this year.
APRIL 23RD 2007 - VOTE FOR BMTH!And in other news, a few changes have been made onto the fansite over the past week or two. We have titles all of the pages now in the same style of writing as Bring Me The Horizon. Although there is one for each page these are not the final ones. We've now added a link to the site affilates in the navigation bar now, so you can go and visit some of our partner sites with more ease. We also have a few more guitar tabs added to the database with hopefully more to come, but sadly we still don't have any bass or drum tabs at all. If you do have any then please send them into us. Thank you.
Bring Me The Horizon are up for this years Golden God Awards by Metal Hammer magazine. They are up for the category of best UK band.
APRIL 19TH 2007 - FANSITE CONTENT CHANGESYou can vote for them by clicking here. There is also a guitar tab for the song 'Who Wants Flowers When You're Dead? Nobody.' that has been added to the site's tablature database. >> DISCUSS IT HERE!
A few changes have been made, along with a few more in the near future to the fansite. Due to the popularity of the fansite certain people have noticed it, and for legal reasons I have had to remove all downloadable MP3 files for the time being. Hopefully sometime soon we will have MP3s back up for download, but for now they have to stay removed.
APRIL 16TH 2007 - BIG EASTER UPDATEAlso Tom Barnes, friend and photographer of Bring Me The Horizon has a large load of his photos of the band up on the fansite, so all of his photos will have a creditting link written on them within the next few days. And while we're on the subject of new content, a few more articles, reviews and interviews have been added to the site database, and the music video for Traitors Never Play Hangman will be up for download soon too. Also, links to the forum have been taken down as I've tried to edit its appearance and it all went a bit bad. Sorry about that guys. But I've put in a request for a new skin, so hopefully that'll be back up in a matter of a few days.
First of all Happy Easter! Apologies for the lack of updates over the past two weeks or so. I was unable to access the website's host so I haven't been able to get on here to inform you of anything new.
MARCH 27TH 2007 - SLIPKNOT COVERIn updated news, Bring Me The Horizon's support band for their current UK headlining tour which is almost at an end have announced that they are to break up shortly. I Killed The Prom Queen are choosing to call it a day after the band announced on their MySpace page that a member is joining the band Bleeding Through. The fansite has now reached over 10,000 unique hits since it first opened in November 2006. Thanks to everyone who has visited the site and uses its forums to make this achievement possible. And finally there has been a rumour of band frontman Oliver Sykes allegedly urinating on a female fan in their tour bus, and then bottling her after the Nottingham gig of the tour. Oli Sykes appeared before Nottingham Magistrates court on Friday 13th April and strongly denies causing any offence at all. This is what is posted in a blog on the band's official MySpace music profile: "As many of you will already have heard there was an incident concerning the band on and around their tour bus in Nottingham in the early hours of Sunday Morning (8th April). As to be expected, in the age of the internet and web boards, numerous versions of the alleged incident have been posted online - Bring me the Horizon and Visible Noise would like to clarify the situation. Oli Sykes was arrested and will appear in court on Friday charged with allegedly urinating on a female fan inside the tour bus, which he strongly denies. Oli has not been charged, nor has ever been questioned or been under any suspicion of attacking the aforementioned female fan. The alleged incident is being dealt with by the relevant authorities currently and a formal statement will be issued once Oli has attended his court appearance on Friday." More news on this will be updated on the website as it arrives.
BMTH are planning to record a Slipknot cover for a new CD for Kerrang! in the near future. The band are covering the song 'Eyeless' taken from Slipknot's debut full-length album for a new CD full of covers from different bands for Kerrang!, and have been playing the song live on their current UK headlining tour.
MARCH 26TH 2007 - NEW DROP DEAD STUFF>> DISCUSS IT HERE!
Some new stuff has just been added to the drop dead clothing site. This also includes the old Mosh & Roll design which now has a completely new look, along with many other new designs. The website appearance has also been updated.
MARCH 22ND 2007 - NEW MUSIC VIDEO!
The band have confirmed that they've not long finished filming for their new music video. The video for the song 'Pray For Plagues', taken from the album Count Your Blessings, will be up for view on music channels and the fansite in a few more weeks to come. Word on the street is that the video features some animation.
MARCH 7TH 2007 - MEDIA SECTION COMPLETE>> DISCUSS IT HERE!
After quite a bit of work and time I have got the layout and look of all the pages in the media section complete. All the photos in the database have been added which right now is over 300. You can see how many in total are on the site by looking at the Site Info section on the left of each page under the navigation bar. Downloads are also up, including the Passe Compose video which is for free download. If you have any stuff you want adding to the media sections send it in, just make sure we don't already have it.
MARCH 2ND 2007 - FANSITE UPDATE
As some of you may have noticed, some of the media pages have changed in their look quite a bit. I have yet to finish the others but they should be done fairly soon. Hope you like the new layout of that section of the site.
FEBRUARY 20TH 2007 - BRING ME THE HORIZON AT DOWNLOAD 2007!We're after more affiliates for the site, so if you have a site of your own then apply to be an affiliate via e-mail and we'll see if your site is good enough to be added with the rest of them already on there. Also, due to the popularity of this site the bandwidth is going pretty quickly, hence the advertisements before you're directed to the site. So we're hoping to get a better host and fan-sites.org and that will hopefully come with a better domain name of .com or .co.uk or .org. If this is the case then co.nr won't work anymore, so keep note of that. Once we get it we will keep co.nr still operational for a week or two so that people can still find us okay.
Bring Me The Horizon have recently been added to the line-up of the UK's biggest annual metal festival. This will be the second time the band will be playing at Download Donnington, along with other bands signed up such as Killswitch Engage, Marilyn Manson, Iron Maiden, Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance and Wolfmother. Check the Download Donnington 2007 website to find out more information.
FEBRUARY 10TH 2007 - PETA/DROP DEAD SHIRT!
Oli Sykes' clothing company, Drop Dead Clothing, placed a new shirt onto their website yesterday for the animal rights organisation PETA. Being a strong vegetarian, Oli created the shirt to help demonstrate his beliefs on eating meat. They're now on sale and all income from shirt sales are donated to PETA. Visit the Drop Dead Clothing Website to order yours now.
FEBRUARY 8TH 2007 - NEW UK HEADLINING TOUR ANNOUNCED!
The band have announced a new UK headlining tour during March and April. The dates provided by Matt Nicholls have been added to the live page of the site. I haven't managed to get a link for all the dates to purchase tickets for the gig, but they will be added as soon as I can find them. Go check them out!
JANUARY 31st 2007 - FANSITE & FORUMS UPDATE
There are some updates about the fansite and the forums to be posted here.
JANUARY 26th 2007 - PROBLEMS WITH IMAGESFANSITE: - Most of the picture files that were posted were hosted by the image hosting site Photobucket. As the bandwidth has exceeded the limit I have then most of the time these images are not viewable. To view these imags all you need to do is right-click on the image and choose the option Properties. Once the new window appears copy and paste the URL from that into the address bar and go there. You should then have no trouble viewing the pictures. - Bandwidth on the fansite server itself is pretty low itself right now so there won't be anything more added to the site until about mid February. - We're after a new place to host the site. As it's on a co.nr domain name we're not getting as many hits as we could be getting. If anyone is willing to host the site under one of their domain names then let me know. - There is a video that we want to put up for public download of the Passe Compose live show which can be seen on the video link. Until the server bandwidth is down this won't be up. But keep a look out for that. - We've got ourselves a few affiliates for the site, but we could always use some more. Check out the affiliate sites we already have, and if you have any sites of your own then let us know. You can never have too many affiliates. FORUMS: - Seeing as though I can't update the main website for a while due to the low bandwidth, the forums will have quite a few updates until the bandwidth is back. Not that the forums aren't important, but I'd rather get the main site done and out of the way. - As you may have already noticed, the forums have the same matching background appearance as the main fansite. Hope you guys like it. - Some emoticons have been added to the database for you to use in your posts. Just click on the Show All link below the default forum emoticons and have a look at what there is on offer. - If you have any emoticons that you wish to add to the site then send me a link to them preferably in a PM. If I like them then I'll add them to the forums database. - Avatar sizes have increased to 185x250 now. So re-upload your current avatar for it to fit into the new size a little more. The size will probably change again sometime in the next few days, but until then it's changed from 64x64 to 185x250. - If you can, try to advertise both the fansite and these forums to anyone else and anywhere else where you think someone will be interested. The more members we have the more lively and interesting this place will be. - The arrangment of the seperate forum area may be changing again soon. I'm still not too happy with it and I'll try and make things a bit more organised and easier to find for everyone. - The member titles for posting so many times have changed, as well as the appearance of the pips/markers underneath your avatar. >> DISCUSS IT HERE!
Sometimes images on the site will say that the bandwidth of them being hosted onto Photobucket has been exceeded. Apparently this should clear up in a few days. Until then if you want to look at any of the images then just right click on properties and take its URL. Then stick that in the address bar and then you should be able to see it.
JANUARY 24th 2007 - APRIL HEADLINING TOURSorry for any inconvience this may cause, we'll be sticking some images onto the website server shortly.
Good news British fans! According to an e-mail sent out yesterday by Visible Noise, the band's record label, Bring Me The Horizon plan to have another headlining UK tour in April with dates all across the country after they have returned from their current tour with Killswitch Engage and The Haunted.
JANUARY 14th 2007 - LARGE IMAGE UPDATELook on this site nearer to April to find out the dates of the tour and if they'll be playing at a venue near you.
We have just had a pretty big update with photos/pics within the media section. Almost every section has had some new stuff added to its database. So have a look at those.
JANUARY 7th 2007 - FORUMS OPENEDMight be some things there that you haven't seen before. Also, the Official BMTH Forums have a new address. So anyone who was a member of those forums might want to go and sign-up as a member there again. The link to those forums has been updated in the links section. Look out for the tabs section for some new tab updates in the weeks, as we've been having some problems with that page of the fansite.
The new fansite forums are up and running. They can be accessed via the Forums link on the top of the page in the navigation bar. You have to register as a member before you have permission to post in the forum, but registration is free of charge.
JANUARY 5th 2007 - BITS AND BOBSAnd the MP3 downloads in the media section has been fixed and song files can now be downloaded again.
Happy new year! A few things to mention here. The layout and look of some areas of the site will be changing like the links at the top of the page that you might have already seen. Members of the Official BMTH Forums will have noticed that it is currently down right now. I don't know why that is myself but hopefully it'll be back up and running soon.
DECEMBER 22nd 2006 - MP3 TROUBLEAnd you may have noticed a link at the top of the page which isn't available yet called Forums. This will be linking to a forum for this fansite which is currently under construction. It'll mainly be another way of submitting stuff you have for the site with a small discussion section. If you want to talk about the band more then your best bet is visiting the Official BMTH Forums. Also, dates for the bands tour of Europe supporting Killswitch Engage have been posted up on the live page of the site.
Sorry guys, but unfortunatley the MP3 downloads section is currently down. We'll get it back up and running as soon as we can for you.
DECEMBER 17th 2006 - FANSITE NEWS
The fansite has had a few changes and additions brought into place. A few more photos and fan artwork have been added to the pictures database in the media section. There are now MP3 files for you to download on the media section, but these are available elsewhere and are permitted by the band themselves for download. The site will also have slight changes with it's look within the next couple of weeks or so, and we're trying to get affiliates from other band fansites so we get more hits on the visitor counter. They'll be displayed in the Links section.
NOVEMBER 16th 2006 - NEW PROMO BANNERSo keep your eyes peeled and keep visiting.
Fansite update! If you look on the media page you'll see it has been completely updated with lots of new photos for you lot to have a gander at. It could still use many more photos so keep sending them in through the usual address. We have a few tabs which will be added to the database through the next couple of weeks. And more news for the media section, there'll be a few MP3 files added for you guys to download, but nothing that you wouldn't be able to find elsewhere on the Internet.
NOVEMBER 9th 2006 - GRAND OPENINGWe have something new that you guys can use to help us with the site. On the LINKS page, there is a banner which you can add to your websites to link back to this page. The code to add it to your websites is on the page so if you would be kind enough to add it we'd really appreciate it. That's about it for now. Thanks a lot!
Hey guys! The Bring Me The Horizon fansite is now open for you guys to have a look around. This the page where site announcments will be made (ie. updates, faults, etc.) and also where there will be new announcments concerning the band (ie. new live dates, releases, media, etc.) so look here first for any news.
As for the rest of the site, there are still a few things that need sorting out but other than that the main part of the site is done. The header buttons are a bit dodgy right now but we're going to get them sorted soon. The media page needs some more things adding to it and I need to wait about another week before I am able to put any MP3 files up. But other than that it is more or less done. If there are any questions, comments or things you think need correcting, or if you want to submit anything that you want added to the site then just send it to the relevant e-mail address which you'll find on the LINKS page. So have a look around, and enjoy!
