Delete - So far as I can tell, this article is a hoax; it appears to be based on Bring Me The Horizon. The various links to people, albums, etc, relate to a variety of acts which don't mention this band. Quite a bit of work has gone into it and I'm not an expert on this genre so I thought I'd bring it here rather than class it as a blatant hoax, in case I'm missing something.

Delete: I don't know if it's a deliberate hoax or not, but it's definitely the work of some confusion – not just Bring Me the Horizon, but also records by Blink 182 and My Chemical Romance mixed in among others in the discography. This edit suggests the article's creator did base it on BMTH's article, but I'm hesitant to call it a deliberate hoax... but whatever the reaasons, it's not a genuine band and the article should go.
