Bring Me The Horizon had an in-studio performance and interview air on BBC Radio 1‘s ‘Future Sounds With Annie Mac‘ today, January 23rd. During their performance, the band played their new tracks “Mantra” and “Medicine” as well as “Follow You” and a cover of Billie Eilish‘s “When The Party’s Over“. You can find footage of that below.
Speaking in the accompanying below interview on where the band are at now and what they hope to become with their latest stylistic changes, frontman Oli Sykes commented:
“I like the fact that we have a catalog where, you get a lot of people that get into maybe, “That’s The Spirit” or “Sempiternal“, or some of the new songs and then they go back; it’s almost like a little breadcrumb trail where people will maybe start off with “Medicine“, before they know it they like “Mantra“, “It’s A Wonderful Life” and then they go back and they start to really get into the vibe of the band and it’s not just about how poppy it is or how accessible it is.
They really feed into the lyrics and what we stand for and stuff like that. So, we’re not ashamed to be like… We want to be that band. We want to be that gateway band for people to get into rock music and stuff and keep it going.”
