Review
Bring Me The Horizon's "That's The Spirit" is a fascinating pivot from their earlier, heavier metalcore vibe to a slick alternative rock and metal ensemble. Released in 2015, this album lines up 11 tracks that display a robust transformation. Heavy-hitters like "Doomed" and "Avalanche" ensure the band hasn't forgotten their roots, packing solid guitar riffs and punchy drumming.
The album plays like a team finally hitting its stride after shaking up the roster; tracks such as "Happy Song" and "Throne" have BMTH diving into catchy hooks and memorable choruses. Despite the mixed reviews—some fans might throw the yellow flag for playing it too "safe"—the shift results in a generally solid play. "Oh No" closes the album on a high note, proving the band can blend heavy basics with soaring vocals to create something that feels both fresh and familiar.
**Game Plan:** "That's The Spirit" is ideal for a varied playlist—those with an appreciation for evolved sound over raw edge. Spin this at your next casual hangout or let it fuel a solo deep dive with some good headphones. Either way, you're in for a showcase of versatility and catchy rhythms that might just score big on your music playlist! - Peter
