Bring Me The Horizon Release New Track 'Ludens' for New PlayStation 4 game, Death Stranding

Written by Zach Brennan

A catchy little number that presents a bouncy vocal melody over their synths and programming. Almost something similar to a Nine Inch Nails album.

The bass and static to build into their beautiful chorus that ties all of the instruments together, erupting all at once.

The poetic lyrics that Oli brings are something to keep an ear to as well. Using the old clichès like “sticks and stones may break my bones” and making his own metaphors with them.

Those who missed Sempiternal and There is A Hell may be a bit surprised as well as they bring those roots back with a gnarly riff to build into the last chorus. Oli’s signature growls making a comeback, and a small sprinkle of a blast beat to top off this masterpiece of a single.
