Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes teases new music ‘in the studio’

Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes has been working in the studio.

The 38-year-old rocker previously made it clear he wants to put out new music with his band at some point in 2025, and now he’s dropped a hint about some potential plans.

Alongside a selfie of himself, he simply wrote: “In’t studio.”

He hasn’t given any more details on what he was in the studio for, or what could be in the pipeline.

Back in December, he revealed there could be new music in the form of a deluxe-style release of 2024’s ‘POST HUMAN: NeX GEn’.

He told “Kerrang!: “We wrote so much for NeX GEn, there’s so many cool songs that are kicking about, and I think the world would love to hear them.

“I would love to get out maybe a ‘director’s cut’ version of the record or something. But I’m trying to put less pressure on myself, and not promise anything!”

However, after the last album took five years to drop following 2019’s ‘Amo’, he wants to temper people’s expectations.

He added: “After the last record it felt like people were gonna start hunting me down and taking me for ransom [laughs].

“But I’m sure there’ll be new music and concerts and all that [in 2025].”

Oli has also pointed out the need to have a “significant amount of time off” so their art doesn’t suffer.

He told NME: “I think so. We need time to recharge our batteries and have that time away, because we haven’t.

“The last time we stopped was when we were forced to for lockdown. Even then, we were still going and making stuff.

“It doesn’t feel like the band has had a significant amount of time off. It’s going to get to a point where it starts to effect the band and its creativity.

“I went off and worked with some producers on some stuff for the new record, and I’m just so fried from ‘Nex Gen’ and that world that I really need to have a proper cut-off point to let the dust settle a bit.”

Oli confessed fans might have a while to wait before the next album.

Asked if it could be released in 2026, he replied: “Yeah, I dunno. We haven’t really figured it out yet. It could be a bit longer than that. It’s hard to say at this point.”
