Bring Me the Horizon Bring Back the Heavy With Lil

“AmEN” may be the exclamation some Bring Me the Horizon fans are saying after hearing the chameleonic rockers return to their heavier roots, but it’s also the title of their latest song. It’s true about the heaviness, as Oli Sykes is back in full screaming vocals, even adding some guttural moments, and the song also has a killer breakdown.

Just last month, keyboardist Jordan Fish explained after the release of the band’s electro pop-punk jam “Lost” that the group was forgoing their metal heaviness for the time being, saving it up for a future chapter in their Post Human series of releases.

“We’re on a journey of doing different types of records, which we set ourselves up to do thinking we’d get through it really quickly, and it hasn’t panned out that way, for a number of reasons,” Fish told Kerrang!

He continued, “We’re working on four Post Human records, and we’ve been working on them all at the same time. … Why it’s taken longer is that we’ve done stuff for the third and fourth ones as well.”

Fish added, “The fourth one is where we want to explore the more heavy stuff, so in a way it limits how much we want to go heavy on this one. You don’t want them all to sound the same. And you want to be confident in your conviction of going all-in on a style.”

At present, “AmEN” appears to be a standalone single, though it likely will find its way onto a Post Human release, and given the heaviness of the song, it might just be the fourth album Fish had mentioned.

As for the song itself, Bring Me the Horizon gets a little help, as rapper and noted rock fan Lil Uzi Vert adds a mid-song rap, while post-hardcore vocalist Daryl Palumbo of Glassjaw and Head Automatica fame raises the energy as well. If you like what you hear, the song is available via multiple platforms here.

Bring Me the Horizon, “AmEN” Lyrics

I hope you have fun
Rotting in hell!
Swim the witch
Slay the infidel!
(Suck a dick heretic!)
I hate you!
& I’d like to see you
Burn, burn, burn!

So tell all your friends
This is the end of everything!
Too late to repent
The wicked will reap what
they sow!
We will sanctify!
(Rise my brethren)
Purify!
(Purge out the sin)
Rejoice in their sorrow and sing!
All hail nex gen!
Can I get an amen?

Somebody call the exorcist!
This is Hersey,
The child is possessed!
(Subjugate the apostate!)
Don’t you know
you’re so six six sick!

Yeah,
You fanatics
Prey on me
Hate on me
Patiently waiting
To watch me bleed
Get your head from out of my ass
Got me feeling like a human centipede
Just let me breathe
Stay the fuck away from me
I don’t really want me
As my own enemy

So tell all your friends
This is the end of everything!
Too late to repent
We’ll bathe in the blood of the damned
We will sanctify!
(Rise my brethren)
Purify!
(Purge out the sin)
Rejoice in their sorrow and
sing
All hail nex gen!
Can I get an amen?

Just let me suffer
(Just let me breathe)
Just let me suffer
(Suffer in peace)
Just let me suffer
(Just let me breathe)
Oh Just let me…
Just let me suffer!
Just let me breathe!
Just let me suffer!
Suffer in peace!
(I’m about to lose control)
Fallen from grace
Corrupted our faith
Foul renegade
(I’m about to lose control)
Thou will be done!
Til kingdom come!
No absolution!

So tell all your friends
This is the end of everything
Too late to repent
The wicked will reap what they sow!
We will sanctify!
(Rise my brethren)
Purify!
(Purge out the sin)
Rejoice in their sorrow and sing
All hail nex gen!
Can I get an amen?

I execute judgment on you!
You wicked demon!
You burn in hell!
Youburn in hell!
It’s over!
