Update – February 18th 11:37am:
Sykes has since stated that he wasn’t targeting Coldplay, read what he had to say about his actions here.
Original Story:
Poor Coldplay, outshined at the ‘Super Bowl‘, proclaimed “the most boring music in the world” by Deftones frontman Chino Moreno and now this. Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes jumped on Coldplay‘s table at tonight’s NME Awards and proceeded to trash it during his band’s performance of “Happy Song“. Footage of that can be found below. Bring Me The Horizon themselves picked up the ‘NME Innovation Award‘ at the event.
