Bring Me The Horizon Accuses Coldplay of Stealing Their Album Artwork

The British rock band - Bring Me the Horizon, stepped up and made themselves semi-interesting as they fired upon fellow Brit musician - Coldplay, regarding their new album cover.

Many fans of the band pointed out that the cover of Coldplay's upcoming album, entitled 'A Head Full of Dreams,' which had a random bunch of circles, looks the same to the 2013 album Sempiternal of Bring Me the Horizon, which is also just a bunch of random circles.

The English musician who is famous as the lead vocalist of the rock band Bring Me the Horizon - Oli Sykes, addressed the controversy, saying that Chris Martin (the lead vocalist and co-founder of the band Coldplay) and crew were "jackin our steez." Oh hell yeah, baby. We got ourselves a Brit fight!"

Oli Sykes stated that whether Coldplay did it intentionally or not, the frontman Sykes did not believe that Coldplay wouldn't have noticed the similarities of the album covers.

Definitely, the 38 year old lead singer Chris Martin totally seems like the kind of a person who stays up on all the recent Hot Topic bands and this was unquestionably a deliberate act of malice.

Oli Sykes, who also founded the apparel company Drop Dead Clothing, stated, "I've no idea, at the end of the day, it's not our symbol, it's a very old symbol," Sykes also said, "Coldplay band might not have known at first, but obviously if you happen to google 'flower of life' the first thing that shows up is 'Bring Me The Horizon - Sempiternal', it's like, if you Google the images, someone's gonna have said something to them, so whether it was intentional or not, it is the same."

Oli Sykes stated on what the symbol on the album cover means, "It represents everything... For me, it was something that I'd never seen before, I'd never even heard about it and as soon as I did I saw it everywhere, in weird things and weird places and weird times."
