Bring Me The Horizon - Suicide Season

Anyone who has listened to Bring Me The Horizon's earlier work will tell you Suicide Season is very different, It has a much more mature sound to it and has defiantly progressed from the E.P. and In my opinion the new sound is 100 times better than before.

Bring Me The Horizon's fanbase has been growing ever since the release of the bands debut E.P "This Is What The Edge Of Your Seat Is Made For" and although most of the admirer's aren't very reputable characters this doesn't stop the band being brilliant.

The Comedown is the opening track and is the first single which is hard to understand as it isn't the strongest track but nonetheless it shows you how the band have progressed, Next is Chelsea Smile which in my opinion is the best track on the album. The riffs are simple but relentless with plenty of machine gun picking to keep you happy, this combined with Oli Syke's new vocal approach and the oddly fitting electronic drum breakdown gives you 5 unforgettable 5 minutes.

Other highlights from Suicide Season Include Diamonds Aren't Forever which  features catchy chants from the band and lyrics that you will muttering for days. If you hadn't heard about it Oli's was accused of urinating on a groupie's face and she later took him to court where he was denied all charges, Oli has reacted to this by releasing a minutes worth of anger in the brilliantly titled "Now Need Introductions, I Have Read About Girls Like You On The Back Of Toilet Doors" Which features the line "And After Everything You Put Me Through, I Should Have Fucking Pissed On You"... You can hear the anger in his voice, Its terrifying.

I expected alot from Suicide Season and it has delivered, Truly a great album from a band that are only just coming into their own.

P.S Brilliant artwork aswell.
