Bring Me the Horizon have shard the new song “LosT,” the latest track in their ongoing Post Human series.
The band’s sound has certainly evolved from its deathcore beginnings, with “LosT” being a feisty blast of anthemic pop-punk — perhaps a nod to Bmth’s upcoming tourmates in Fall Out Boy. The bands are set to hit the road together for a summer North American tour in June, and you can get tickets via StubHub, where your purchase is 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s Fan Protect program.
The single is accompanied by a cinematic music video starring a gored-up and bandaged Bmth frontman Oli Sykes, and featuring an appearance by actor Thomas Ian Nicholas (“Kevin” from American Pie). Jensen Noen directed the clip, which runs with the theme of Oli’s chorus refrain: “Stupid medicine not doing anything!”
Bring Me the Horizon have taken an alternative approach to new music since 2019’s Amo.

Brillante Mendoza has come under much scrutiny during the last few years, due to his closeness to President Duterte. “Amo”, a series that focuses on the government’s crackdown on narcotics that has cost the lives of thousands since 2016, did not do much to help the veteran director. Calls for the cancellation of the first Philippine series to stream on Netflix have become more intense with time, while a mother, whose son was killed by unknown assailants after he was accused of peddling drugs, recently started a Change.org petition for the same purpose. Let us see, however, what is hidden beneath all this controversy.
The series follows a number of the members of an extended family, with the person of focus changing every few episodes. In that fashion, the story begins with Joseph, a high school student who lives partially with his mother and handicapped father and partially with his sister and brother-in-law,...

The Cranberries lead singer Dolores O’Riordan tragically died in January 2018 at age 46 — accidental drowning due to alcohol intoxication. But the rock band released one final album more than a year later, “In the End,” which is now nominated for a Grammy for Best Rock Album. Will the recording academy pay tribute to them with a win this year? Other rockers have recently won posthumous Grammys, perhaps surprisingly, The Cranberries had never earned a single nomination before this, so they’re long overdue.
The Irish rock band had their heyday in the mid-1990s, when their first three albums — “Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We?,” “No Need to Argue” and “To the Faithful Departed” — all had multi-platinum sales and produced a few enduring hits including “Dreams,” “Linger” and “Zombie.” “Argue” was their most successful release, certified seven-times platinum, and “Zombie” topped Billboard’s Alternative Rock chart, but...
