Is Oliver Sykes Christian

Answer 1

Not Christian but not Atheist I do not think. There is an interview in the March Alternative Press magazine about it.

He says he can understand why Christians believe in God.

---

My take: I can not say for sure but in his music with BMTH there are often times where it seems he is crying out to God but doesn't really believe he's there.

"But if I don't believe in him, why would he believe in me?"

After that line it goes into a less heavy synth solo repeating "why would he believe in me?" and you can almost hear sorrow in his voice. It then concludes with a heavy breakdown [[which is insanely sick]] and gives me the impression that he kinda gives up wondering for the time and is moving on.

He also makes reference to The Bible in their new album "There is a Hell, believe me I've seen it. There is a Heaven let's keep it a secret."

The cover itself represents the dark and light and the rest I'm trying to figure out.

I still have yet to spend time in their new album and read into it but that's what I have so far.

Answer 2

No, and, inverted crosses don't mean anything.

He hasn't really said anything directly about his religion.

In some of BMTH's songs, some of the lyrics about him not understanding god and why he should believe in him.

I don't think he's atheist though.

Answer 3

He said, "I don't believe in the Christian God, but I guess I do believe in something higher."
