What is Bring Me The Horizon teasing?

Author Benedetta Baldin - 12.4.2026

An all-black banner with the capitalized phrase “PRAY FOR PLAGUES” was spotted in Manchester, approximately an hour and a half’s drive from the band’s hometown of Sheffield. It appears to be promoting a potential anniversary event related to Bring Me The Horizon and the 20th anniversary of their debut album, “Count Your Blessings”, as per MetalInjection. To be more precise, “Pray For Plagues” is the opening song off the album. Fans have been speculating that there may be a reissue of “Count Your Blessings”, with some even hoping for a reinvention more in line with Bring Me The Horizon‘s current approach. However, there is no indication on whether this is an album reissue, a new festival slot, or an anniversary tour.

However, this is not the first time the subject has come up. Frontman Oli Sykes uploaded a video to his Instagram stories approximately two months ago, as mentioned on the r/Metalcore forum, where he can be seen performing vocals for “Pray For Plagues.” Fans were excited about what Bring Me The Horizon may do for the anniversary of their debut, even though it’s unclear if he was re-recording them, practicing them, or what he intended to do with the song.
