"Throne" landed on 23 July 2015, premiered as Annie Mac's Hottest Record on BBC Radio 1 the same day the single and its video came out, as the third taste of That's the Spirit, Bring Me the Horizon's fifth album. It's big-riff rock slicked with electronic gloss: Jordan Fish's electronics and backing vocals, Lee Malia's guitar, Matt Kean and Matt Nicholls hammering away underneath, strings from William Harvey and Maddie Cutter, and Oliver Sykes bellowing his own words into a chorus built for a stadium. Fish and Sykes produced it, and Dan Lancaster mixed it.

It topped both the UK Rock & Metal Singles Chart and Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart. The band played it at Maida Vale for Radio 1's Live Lounge, and that October it and "Happy Song" served as theme songs for the wrestling show NXT TakeOver: Respect.
