Bring Me the Horizon posted a photo on Instagram earlier (Feb. 10) from a Grammy party with the Backstreet Boys. Singer Oli Sykes wore a Cannibal Corpse shirt, and the band captioned the photo, "We weren't the heaviest band at the party." See the post below.

Is Sykes trying to make a statement? Bring Me the Horizon has been receiving a lot of backlash for their latest album amo due to its experimental nature. Some of the songs featured pop artists and beatboxers, bringing a whole new dynamic to the metal band's sound. "Heavy Metal" specifically addresses metalheads who are disappointed with the change with the lyrics, "I'm afraid you don't love me anymore / 'Cause a kid on the 'gram in a Black Dahlia tank says it ain't heavy metal.amo sold roughly 16,000 copies in the United States in its first week, debuting at No. 14 on the Billboard 200 chart.
