Bring Me The Horizon Rewrite Their Own History. Debut Album 'Count Your Blessings' Returns in a Heavier New Form

Twenty years after releasing the album that divided listeners while laying the foundations for one of modern rock's biggest bands, Bring Me The Horizon are returning to their roots. This time, however, it is neither a simple reissue nor a nostalgic trip down memory lane. On July 10, 2026, the band will release Count Your Blessings | Repented, a completely re-recorded version of their groundbreaking 2006 debut.

The band has made it clear that this project is about far more than celebrating a twentieth anniversary. Frontman Oli Sykes has openly admitted that the group was never fully satisfied with the production of the original record. Their goal was to preserve the raw intensity and uncompromising spirit of the songs while rebuilding them with a modern production, heavier guitars, thunderous rhythms, and a sound that reflects where the band stands today.

The first taste of the album came with Black & Blue (2026 Repented), proving that this is much more than a cosmetic update. The new version sounds heavier, sharper, and more confident, while remaining faithful to the record that launched Bring Me The Horizon on their journey toward becoming one of the world's most influential heavy bands.

To mark the release, Bring Me The Horizon will perform a special concert in Manchester on July 10, where Count Your Blessings | Repented will be played live in its entirety. For longtime fans, it will be a unique opportunity to relive the band's earliest chapter. For newer listeners, it offers the chance to experience one of the defining albums of the band's early years in a form that matches the standards of 2026.

If Bring Me The Horizon have proven anything throughout their career, it is their willingness to challenge expectations. Rather than simply celebrating their past, they have chosen to rewrite it. And if the first single is any indication, Count Your Blessings | Repented could become one of the most talked-about metal releases of the summer.
