They played the FR on the Friday relatively early, they were very good. They put out a banging album this year. Would love to see them early on Main or R1 this year.

I had a chat with Theresa Jarvis (yonaka singer) a couple months ago, she said they haven’t been asked. I don’t know if she could say if they were, but they would be a great early/mid day act

Do we think this is actually like a serious BMTH EP or just them messing around for the holiday season? 

Based on the stuff from Twitter there's a 24 min song, the title of the EP is weird af and the Halsey track is an In The Dark remix.

Wouldn't call it purely messing about but given the lack of promotion etc and how un-commerical it sounds, it must be something to not take too seriously/not intended for the usual audience.

BMTH have said in an interview they want to switch to just EPs so they can release multiple projects in a year, all with different sounds to them. I guess this is the weird experimental one.

FUCKING BMTH HAVE A SONG WITH BEXEY I AM IN LOVE

[Pottsy2913]

4 songs into Bring Me The Horizon's new EP, and it's...quite unsettling. Like, really weird. That being said, the song with Halsey is pretty catchy. Can definitely see her being at Reading and Leeds next year (4:00 slot on the main stage perhaps?), and Bring Me The Horizon bringing her out during their (probably) headline slot.

Yonaka will more than likely make an appearance too. Radio 1 tent?

I'm really loving it, can't take it too seriously as a Bring Me release though but Oli did express that they just wanted to release a bunch of experimental music in the new year and that they didn't really have any interest in making an album at the moment.. can expect them to release a lot of experimental music next year dipping their toes into multiple different genres, can't see them incorporating many of these songs into their setlist though and i wouldn't want them too they wont have the same effect during a headline set when thrown in with songs from Sempiternal and some of their earlier tracks.. the song with Halsey is probably the only one they could play live and seeing as it samples 'In The Dark' they'd probably just play a snippet of this new one during that

What makes the new BMTH release an EP as opposed to an album?

I always regarded an EP as shorter than an album with about 4 or 5 tracks.

This ‘EP’ has 8 tracks and is longer than most album releases.

It's just marketing. They probably don't want to release that as an album.

Officially, an EP is a maximum of 25 minutes, I believe.

Bleanavon’s Ben has just put out an album (made by him alone but still under the Bleanavon umbrella) and it’s jolly good if different to their other two (that are brilliant tbf). Any chance of seeing them even though they cancelled last year??
