Bring Me the Horizon - There Is a Hell Believe Me I've Seen It. There Is a Heaven Let's Keep It A Secret [2LP Eco Vinyl]

Bring Me the Horizon's third album is where the Sheffield band first tore up their own rulebook, and this 2LP edition presses the 2010 record on eco vinyl.

Recorded in Gothenburg with producer Fredrik Nordström, the album pushed far beyond the band's deathcore beginnings. Choirs, strings, electronics and soaring clean vocals crash into Oliver Sykes' raw screams, and the lyrics turn inward, darker and more personal than anything they had written before. It was widely seen as a turning point in how the heavy music world viewed them.

"Crucify Me" opens with a choir and a slow, menacing build before Canadian singer Lights adds an ethereal counterpoint. "It Never Ends" pairs a sweeping orchestral arrangement with crushing breakdowns, while "Blessed with a Curse" slows the pulse for one of their most melodic and wounded moments.

"Visions" brings glitchy programming from Skrillex into the chaos, an early hint of the electronic direction that would shape their later albums. Across the whole record, the band balances brutality and beauty with a confidence that few metalcore acts of the era could match.

For fans who came aboard with Sempiternal or the albums since, this is the missing link, the record where the band's ambition first outgrew the genre that raised them.
