“If we can do that, then we can take responsibility for what we’ve done to the planet and become something better than what humans are right now.” “The idea behind ‘Post Human’ is looking at how we’ve stepped out of evolution and the food chain,” he told NME.

Sykes also revealed that Bring Me the Horizon has plans to release FOUR new albums in 2020, a series of releases under the title Post Human. That’s what rock music is about – addressing the dark side and processing it.” You can’t just brush over it and expect life to go back to normal, because it fucking ain’t. The world needs more and needs to think about it and remember. In our music we’ve always wanted to escape, but there’s been too much escapism and ignoring the problems in the world.

The band began recording it in February, but then hit a crossroads: As front man Oli Sykes said in a new NME interview, the song’s inspiration came from Sykes reading about a Japanese superbug resistant to climate change.

Lyrically and thematically relevant and visually bewildering and haunting, the video for the song features lightning-quick editing, jarring colors and bizarre visuals (an eight-armed CGI woman, for example). On Thursday, the shape-shifting English rock/metal/experimental/electronic band premiered a new song, “Parasite Eve,” and it’s quite an adventure. You bring the anxiety, Bring Me the Horizon will bring the soundtrack to the end of the world.
