The wait is finally over! After a series of delays, Bring Me The Horizon has surprised fans by releasing their eagerly awaited full-length album, NeX GEn. Their latest offering marks the next chapter in the POST HUMAN: anthology and follows the release of 2020’s POST HUMAN: Survival Horror.
Across the 55-minute, 16-track opus, featuring previously released singles “Kool Aid,” “LosT,” “DiE4u,” “AmEN!” and “DArkSide,” frontman Oli Sykes shares that the album took “ages to write.”
“It’s a real concept album, with a full narrative that connects to the first record, but the concept is hidden and buried,” he adds. “Some people aren’t going to be interested, but for some people it could be like a self-help book. There’s a lot of things in there, some of it’s quite clear, but a lot of it cryptic and hidden. People are gonna have to work it out.”
Bring Me The Horizon is preparing to enter a massive run across the festival circuit this summer, which includes stops at Mystic Festival, Greenfield Festival, Rock for the People Festival, and more. You can check out their current touring schedule below and purchase tickets here.
