In the photo, the BMTH vocalist was wearing a Cannibal Corpse t-shirt.

Bring Me The Horizon shared a photo on their social media that they took during a Grammy Awards party, while having fun with the Backstreet Boys .

In the photo, vocalist Oli Sykes is wearing a Cannibal Corpse and the caption reads: “We weren’t the heaviest band at the party.” Many fans interpreted the message as a response to the negative comments the group has received after the release of the album amo , which has a more pop-oriented sound.

Was this a prank by Sykes and company? See the photo below.
