The band was formed in 2006 in Hampshire, England, with their initial line-up consisting of rhythm guitarist and singer Jason Cameron, drummer Adam Jackson, lead vocalist Daniel Winter-Bates, his brother bassist Davyd Winter-Bates and lead guitarist Mehdi Vismara.

Bury Tomorrow's band members perceived this as an attempt to manipulate them and change them into something they were not by suggesting they should incorporate more electronic elements into their music style.

[8] At Ghostfest, Bury Tomorrow met their future band manager, who suggested that they shelf the album they had been writing.

[8] Bury Tomorrow supported British metalcore band While She Sleeps in October, with a follow-up UK headline tour in December.

[9][10][11] On 6 December, two days before the band started the headline tour, a video was released for their single "Royal Blood", directed by Thomas Welsh.

[16] Two singles were released in 2012 to promote The Union of Crowns: "An Honourable Reign", which was premiered on BBC Radio 1 and "Knight Life".

[19][20] Bury Tomorrow played a single date on 10 July at the Camden Underworld supporting I Killed the Prom Queen on their European tour, before appearing at Hevy Music Festival in early August.

[23][24] In late January 2013, the band announced that lead guitarist Mehdi Vismara had left Bury Tomorrow and that Kristan Dawson would assume his position.

[25] In February, the band supported The Ghost Inside on the "Rock Sound Impericon Exposure Tour" across the United Kingdom.

[26] Vocalist Daniel Winter-Bates made a guest appearance on the song "Broken Lights" from Heart in Hand's album Almost There, which was released on 11 February.

[27][28][29][25] Rock Sound praised their performance at Leeds Festival, writing: "They came as underdogs, but given the reception they're afforded this afternoon, it's safe to say that Bury Tomorrow will be leaving with more than a few new friends.

[citation needed] Later in June, the band announced another European headline tour, set for October, with support from Hands Like Houses, In Hearts Wake and Slaves.

[38] While performing at Slam Dunk North 2015, Bury Tomorrow announced that they had just finished working on their fourth full-length album, but did not reveal when it will be released.

[40][non-primary source needed] At the same time, the band announced that their fourth album, also titled Earthbound, is set for release worldwide on 29 January 2016 through Nuclear Blast.

on 15 April 2017, frontman Daniel confirmed that the band had written some of the follow-up to Earthbound and that they plan on recording at some point later in the year.

[47] On 13 April 2018, the band released the lead single and title track "Black Flame" along with an accompanying music video.

[53] On 29 November 2019, the band released the lead single of their upcoming album titled "The Grey (VIXI)" and its corresponding music video.

[56] On 20 March, presumably due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic concerns, the band announced that they delayed the release of the album to 3 July in a bid to help them properly promote it.

[1][81] AllMusic writer Gregory Heaney wrote: "Offsetting layers of pleasant, atmospheric melody with sudden bursts of chugging heaviness, the band uses its breakdowns to create a brooding, moody effect, as if the songs are lurching into a fit when provoked from their somber ruminations.

[82] This is reinforced through vocal styles, in a manner typical of many metalcore bands; whereas Winter-Bates performs a harsh mix of screaming and growling, guitarist Jason Cameron contrasts this with melodic singing, usually in the chorus of a song.
