BRING ME THE HORIZON PREMIERE NEW SINGLE ‘SHADOW MOSES’


Bring Me the Horizon continue to evolve with each album and the band is ready to kick off 2013 by showing a bit of their musical growth with the new song ‘Shadow Moses.’ The group debuted the track Friday (Jan. 4) on BBC Radio 1, giving fans their first taste of the forthcoming album, ‘Sempiternal.’

The song provides a haunting opening before kicking in with singer Oli Sykes delivering the key line, “Can you tell from the look in our eyes / We’re going nowhere / We live our lives and we’re ready to die / We’re going nowhere.” The “We’re going nowhere” line has already worked masterfully as an audience call-and-response in the band’s recent live performances.

In addition, the group has managed to work in the album title into the tune, with Sykes screaming on a couple of occasions, “This is sempiternal.” For those wondering what the title means, it’s definition is “eternal and unchanging” or “everlasting,” thus making the concept of “going nowhere” in the track a rather dreary thought. Along with the brutal subject matter, the song comes with the requisite force, aggression and driving guitar work that one would expect from Bring Me the Horizon, along with a chorus that’s incredibly infectious.

Sykes recently said of the band’s forthcoming disc, “I’ve never been so confident about an album. It makes our last record just sound s—. We’re doing stuff we could never dreamed of doing before.” A firm release date for the ‘Sempiternal’ album has not been revealed, but given the fact that the song has now debuted, an early 2013 street date is likely to follow.
