Bring Me The Horizon Clarify Guitarist Situation

Bleeding Through man Jona Weinhofen is a temporary fix as the band get closer to a full time replacement for Curtis Ward.

Bring Me The Horizon drummer Matt Nicholls has told Rock Sound that former Bleeding Through guitarist Jona Weinhofen is just a temporary solution for the Sheffield based metal band:

''We needed someone to fill in and Jonah popped up in conversation, we knew he would be good so we asked him,'' the drummer noted recently. ''He was up for it and we are all excited to have him out for some shows but he is not the new guitarist for Bring Me The Horizon.''

However the band are beginning to look at long term replacements for the recently departed Curtis Ward:

''We are just getting friends to help us out at the minute but we have got people in mind for the job full time,'' Nicholls admitted while remaining tight-lipped about the details. ''The people we are thinking about know who they are, but we are just going to have to wait and see what happens.''

So there you have it. Bring Me The Horizon play at Download Festival on Friday, June 12.
