The Kerrang! staff’s top albums of 2024
You’ve seen the Kerrang! albums of 2024. Now check out what the staff were all listening to this year…
‘Such a sucker for an execution…’ Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes has unveiled a snippet of the song Kool-Aid, from the band’s upcoming POST HUMAN: NeX Gen album.
While we still don’t yet have a release date for Bring Me The Horizon’s delayed album POST HUMAN: NeX Gen, the band are clearly working hard on music behind the scenes, with Oli Sykes sharing a heavy snippet of new music.
The singer took to Instagram stories to unveil not one, not two but three NeX Gen track details, along with the news that the second song – Kool-Aid – is complete. As such, he also teased how it sounded, and you can hear Oli screaming the lyrics, ‘Such a sucker for an execution…’ over monstrous-sounding instrumentals. Oooft!
He also revealed that NeX GEn’s opening song has the working title ScREam, and there’s still some bits left to sort on that one (including new verse and chorus melodies) while track three is apparently called toP 10 STatUes THAT CRiED BLood.
Check out Oli’s Insta post – via @bmthstan4lyfe on Twitter – below.
Previously announcing POST HUMAN: NeX Gen’s delay back in August, Oli wrote that “unforeseen circumstances rendered us unable to complete the record to the standard we’d be happy with. I was hoping despite the setbacks we could pull it off in time for you guys but there’s still so many little details I want to be perfect and until it’s nailed I’m just not willing to give to you guys. We can’t give it a new date just yet but just know it’s close…”
