"Drown" is a song by British rock band Bring Me the Horizon released on 21 October 2014. Originally released as a stand-alone single, a remixed version features on the band's fifth studio album That's the Spirit and was released as the lead single.[citation needed] The track, musically, marks a shift away from the band's previously established metalcore sound. Rather, it was described by critics as a pop punk-leaning[2] emo[3] and rock song,[4] being the later showcased as arena rock.[5] It is available to play in the music video game Guitar Hero Live, added on 12 January 2016.

It reached No. 17 in the UK, becoming the band's first top-20 single in their home country.
