In 2004 a group of musicians came together in Sheffield that would become known as Bring Me the Horizon. Stealing a line from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise to find its name, this group has found some success, releasing two albums and touring in the UK and the US. Bring Me the Horizon tickets have sold for headlining tours before and will again.

The band earned a following with a heavy tour schedule. They went on the road with a number of groups that simply could not make it. Bring Me the Horizon did, releasing a debut album, Count Your Blessings in 2006. The next year they sold Bring Me the Horizon tickets for a headlining tour in the UK and a small set of concert dates in the U.S.

While other groups completely disintegrated, this band remained remarkably intact. Lead singer Olivier Sykes, lead guitarist Lee Malia, bass guitarist Matt Kean, and drummer Matt Nicholas have been with the group from the beginning. Rhythm guitarist Curtis Ward left in 2009, and Bring Me the Horizon replaced him with Jona Weinhofen. Before Ward left, the group released its second album, Suicide Season.
