In other BMTH-related news, guitarist Lee Malia recently praised Oli for his part in the band's incredible evolution.
“I think we’ve been ahead of some of the other bands," Lee says in an interview with MusicRadar. "To Oli’s credit, he’s quite good at that. He has ideas before anyone else; he’ll come up with something and you’ll think that sounds like it’s just going to be mental, like having a choir all chopped up on a CD, but then we did that and then everyone started having choirs on their CDs, the whole metalcore scene – but a year later than us. Do you know what I mean? Or having strings. Even though, of course, Metallica did it years before, we modernised it.
“I always think we have been a year ahead of bands who are kind of just seeing what’s cool and then copying it. I think we always thought ahead, and thought about what we were doing, rather than just doing the same thing again. We’ve always thought what we could do next to make it better.”
