Ok so for context I discovered and got into BMTH 13 years ago with Sempiternal, it was the first heavy-ish album I got into. At that point they were my favourite band and that was my all time favourite album that I listened to every single day, I was also quite into There is a hell and I'd listen to the odd track from the first 2 albums.

When That's the spirit came out I tried really hard to like it but it was just too different for me, I can respect the songwriting and performance etc but it's just not for me, funnily enough my wife (gf at the time) got really unto this album and she didn't like any of the music before this one. I then didn't pay much attention to any new releases and my wife heard a couple of Amo songs and didn't like it, she then stopped listening to new releases too.

About 3-4 years ago and she got really into Survival Horror because our friend kept saying we should listen to it, I also quite liked it too but I'm not crazy about it but Dear Diary goes really hard. She alao really likes the latest album and I enjoy a good 6-7 songs on it.

Fast forward to today, we just saw them live again last Sunday (my third time, her second) and I've been blasting Dehumized non stop since it came out, it's become one of my favourite songs by them and I'm very onboard with the vegan lyrics. I think that track made me want to revisit the the first album properly and holy shit I think Count Your Blessings is an absolute masterpiece now!?

It's so strange to me to have known this album fairly well for so long and it didn't fully click until now, I've listened to it everyday for like a week and can't get enough. I just love the amazing melodic riffs, the drumming and Oli's crazy possessed vocals. It's basically a perfect album and it seems so innovative for the time. I've never really liked any Deathcore despite trying so many times so I don't know if this just an exception or I haven't found the right kind of bands yet but I might see what else is out there. I also tried Suicide Season again and I enjoyed some tracks more than other but that one hasn't fully clicked still.

Anyway, I know this is such random long-ass post but I kept thinking how stange my relationship is with this band and how it keeps changing over the years, I might not like all their music but it's amazing how they've managed to shift styles so much and be successful. Sempiternal will always be a very special album to me and it's very nostalgic, but CYB might well be my current favourite right now. Starting to wish I got tickets to see them in Manchester now to hear the album in full live!

Have any of you had odd relationship with the band like this or is it just me?

If you had to make a record of theirs using a song from every release what would yours be?

Mine is

6. Doomed

7. Heavy Metal

8. A Devastating Liberation

9. Parasite Eve

10. Dig it

11. Dehumanized

Will Ramos posts about them every now and then and I swear every time it's a banger. In my case I'm talking about "Follow you" and "Avalanche" (amongst other songs). I like it so much that he's very open about other bands.

How many other of you come from the same place as me?

Final thought, BMTH x Lorna Shore would be such a banger

I travelled to the UK for about 2 weeks recently (1+ week in Glasgow, 2 days in London) and I had one day in each place to go crate digging at record shops to find BMTH CDs. In Glasgow I went to Monorail Music, in London I visited Reckless Records, Sister Ray and Rough Trade, but I couldn't find any CDs. There were vinyls sure, but sadly I don't have a turntable at home and carrying vinyls on in my luggage is somewhat inconvenient. I also didn't manage to find any Bad Omens stuff at all FWIW.

Just wanted to ask how common are BMTH CDs in such record resale stores, or am I just not checking out enough stores or looking at the wrong place?

I've been listening to BMTH since 2022-2021 , but I recently got back into them in 2025-2026, and they are so GOOD!! . I missed out on a lot of good songs 😔. I LOVE the death core era though!! It's one of my favs I love the metal core era too!! That's all I have to say

Does anyone have a rip of the BBC Radio 1 session the band did in 2005 (maybe 2006) prior to 'Count Your Blessings' coming out where they performed 'Medusa', 'Off The Heezay' and 'Dragon Slaying'?

They're the ones that were taken and then put onto the fan-made compilation 'The Bedroom Sessions'. I know each of the tracks are out there and fairly easy to find, but I think there was an accompanying Q&A which I'd love to hear too. Pretty sure it was at Maida Vale too.

I can't even find reference of it using the Wayback Machine or anything, but I definitely know it happened.
