Last week I sat down with British rockers BRING ME THE HORIZON at The Grafton in Hollywood. They discussed their love for Los Angeles, hate for Taco Bell, and excitement about the start of Taste of Chaos!

Ariana: How are you guys today?

BMTH: Alright, cheers!

Ariana: So tomorrows your first day of chaos, excited?

BMTH: Pretty excited. LA is always cool. Itll probably be our biggest show we’ve ever played here, we’re stoked. These are the types of tours we’d always want to go to when we were kids so its exciting that we’re apart of them now.

Ariana: Whats your favourite spot in the us?

BMTH: LA, definitely.

Ariana: Where did you come up with the name Bring Me The Horizon?

BMTH: Pirates of the Carribean stole it off of us.

Ariana: So it’s been 5 years since you formed, did you ever expect this much success?

BMTH: Nope. We were pretty serious about it, no laughs.

Ariana: Your last album was significantly different from this one, why did you change your sound?

BMTH: Our last sound was sh*t! We wanted to do something decent. We knew we wanted to something different, we just didn’t know how our why…and it just turned out the way it did.

Ariana: How did you guys get together?

BMTH: Backyard wrestling.

Ariana: How’d you REALLY get together.

BMTH: We were all mates, a few of us met in college. We just, started a band.

Ariana: Were you music majors?

BMTH: Music and art, yeah.

Ariana: Where would you most like to visit?

BMTH: Space. And Universal studios. No, japan. But we’re going there this year, so…

Ariana: Are you gonna sight see in LA?

BMTH: Well we would of but we’re in this hotel room with you.. Kidding!

Ariana: Who gets on each others nerves the most?

BMTH: Lee, he works out way too much.

Ariana: Whats your most annoying habits?

BMTH:  Oli tries to kiss me.

              Matts really racist.

              Lee thinks he’s donkey kong.

Ariana: Whats coming up for your future?

BMTH: We’re going to release a pop song. Throw in some r&b for our next cd.

Ariana: Whats your favourite track from your recent album?

BMTH: Its too hard, theyre all pretty good!

Ariana: Do you stem your songs from real situations?

BMTH: Theyre all based on comics. No yeah, its from life.

Ariana: What are you most looking forward to seeing on the chaos tour.

BMTH: Canada! Its really nice and we sell a lot of merch there. We made about 15 grand in Toronto last time!

Ariana: Wow. Whats your favourite place to stop for food.

BMTH: Walmart!

Ariana: What?

BMTH: That’s where all the food is! Otherwise, food sucks here. Baja Fresh and Quiznos are good though. Taco bell and things like that are crap.

Ariana: What are you guys all about?

BMTH: ROCKIN IT.

Ariana: Are you ready for the last question?

BMTH: Nope!

Ariana: Whats your favourite skittle flavor and why?

BMTH: purple, red and orange… cause its tasty.  Have you had sours?

Ariana: Yes but I can’t handle that.

BMTH: Vegetarians can’t eat skittles in America, but they can in England.

Ariana: Any last words?

BMTH: SUCK ITTTTT.
