#BringMeTheHorizon #Metal #NikNocturnal
Honestly, I don’t remember the last time they had a bad chorus. They are master at this shit
Right? Show me a BMTH track with a chorus that ISN'T catchy
Shit. Even their ep "this is what the edge of your seat was made for" had some catchy songs
True. They don’t really have ‘bad’ choruses, they just have choruses that aren’t as amazing as the others, because some are just a phat level higher
Lost is still stuck in my head
@@Beckzyy yeah their good choruses set a bar that's so high that even when they don't meet that, it's still better than most other bands lmao
I actually love this song very much, but the breakdown could be at least longer than 3 sec
This is where I'm at, really. I'd have loved a nice like 20s of just thrashing then a smooth transition back to the final chorus.
@@pa-r6169 Amen! Is really good at that
3 seconds will not match tempo idiot.
Radio edit! This whole bostalgia vibe they are going for...maybe they're bringing that back and have a full version on the album...just saying haha 😊
They probably did this specifically to troll Nik ;)
This feels like the 1x1 of this era and I'm completely fine with this.
I am 100% sure that they have some heavy and experimental stuff on this record that they wanted to save till full release to not spoil people with heaviness so they don't get disappointed when all what's left for the record are softer songs
im right there with you!! when i first heard it i thought the same thing! very 1X1! & I love it!
Yeah but 1x1 is a phenomenal song, this is good but it lacks that special thing
Fully agreed - There's no way we aren't getting a surprise banger ala Kingslayer on the EP. They just didn't wanna show their full hand and had to delay the EP, so we got a normal tracklist song as a single, which it clearly wasn't meant to be.
Some heavier stuff will be saved for later EPs in this series, remember that. Perhaps another crazy song, but not much more than that for this album
This isn't a bad song at all. But I don't think it was meant to be a single. I think BMTHs last songs have been such a crazy experience that when they release a normal song it seems underwhelming. It hurts Nik a little more cause he's a breakdown addict
I think because the ep/album got delayed they felt obligated to release a new single as a stop gap. This fits that well because it’s safe and catchy but not a complex song at all. I don’t think they would’ve wanted to give another “big” song
my exact thoughts also @@carxeco
yeah, for me this kinda equates to 1x1 in terms of vibes
@@carxeco Wait, it got deleted?
Then he shouldn't even commented in this song in the first place. He should stick with bs ass repetitive breakdowns nobody give a f.
Maybe controversial opinion but i like that there wasnt really a breakdown. You see breakdowns everywhere in songs even if they arent necessary, and i think the song is perfectly good without one
same tbh. I feel like Breakdowns or the Blegh Callout are so overdone nowadays. Like every Band has to have at least 2 per song nowadays. Can't we go back to having Guitar Solos or a breakdown when its actually neeeded instead throwing it out verywhere?
Agreed. Kinda makes me laugh when people complain about things being samey, but most of those people want a breakdown in every song 🤦🏼♂️
same
@@Narc85a breakdown a day keeps the depression away😌
@@Jmarden97 actually I'd say the breakdown is the depression. Get it
I like this song very much, feels like a mid 2000's chill emo rock song
And that's what I love it for ❤
I actually like the song as it is. It's angsty, it's got good chorus, and the lyrics get me in my feelings. Maybe not "peak single" material, but this is one that I'll be coming back to.
Yeah, I think it's just a first-expectation-effect. When people listen to this for the first time, they might've expected something different, but when they listen to it the second time, they already know what's coming, so the're less "disappointed". Give them some time and they will totally dig this song...
There's deffo a reason it's the 5th single rather than a lead single
When I was in school my music teacher once told me "you know a song is really good when it's purposely missing a tiny tiny bit so you want to hear it over and over again"
Think they did exactly that with this song
Part of me feels like they blue balled the breakdown so they can slap our necks with a heavy banger next
Seems like a transition track right? I think as a single it is safe but on the record it'd probably bump pretty crazy
@@mekiyahhazbin1720 exactly where my mind was going
god i hope they absolutely smack a heavy track next time
Copium
@@c.k.1933 you say copium like i haven't enjoyed just about everything the bands put out lmao
I will confess that I definitely missed and had sincerely hoped that they'd go heavy on the final part, with me being rather disappointed that they didn't. That being said, the song overall sounds very pleasing to my ears, reminding me of that Sempiternal/That's The Spirit with maybe a bit of Amo mixed in, and... Well, like you said yourself, it's catchy with a good hook!
Actually, pretty much all their songs after amo are a mix of Sempiternal, That's The Spirit and amo, with some songs having more elements of one album or another. This dark side song is the 1x1 or Teardrops of their next EP (which already has a name btw, it's Nex Gen) and they need one or two songs like this on the record. Sometimes it just feels right to get some new/old 2000s MCR or Linkin Park vibes
4:57 My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
That being said; given its Bring Me, ain't even mad. This entire song feels something Linkin Park would do in 2023. Love it
Bro they have put out banger after banger . This song is mid but better then most rock out here now . Give a break
@@Shawnzy1their mid songs are way above other bands
@@alexpinto5588 I’d argued that their modern mid songs are better then a lot of bands great songs . They can’t put out banger after banger forever . Everyone forgets that post human had a couple mid songs
I think the main "problem" is that the song was never supposed to be a single at all. My theory is that they wanted to sweeten the wait with another single and decided to go with this more personal, big arena song to maybe not "spoil" the other "WTF?" Songs (looking at you, Kingslayer)
small edit: This sounds like I dont like the song. I do, just as a single it's a bit underwhelming
Kingslayer honestly makes me super happy
@@frnksfrthmmrs_ Fr it's just like that lol
I agree with you on that it’s a bit underwhelming. Still like it, but it’s just not got that something about it
I mean the track it's kinda mid
@@edwardlovatt425 Exactly what i thought it's the kind of song you hear once and are like 'Oh this is cool' but then u never listen to it again
For me, where the instrumentals lack heaviness, the lyrics make up for it. The emotional weight of the song is so heavy it compensates
Its like a Thats the Spirit meets Linkin Park meets Sleeping With Sirens vibe
The song definitely grows on you :)
I've now looped it most of today and its now become my 2nd favourite of the 5 singles.
I just love how dark and shamelessly emo it is. Even dark songs like Lost kinda don't hit that nerve because the general vibe is kind of upbeat and exciting. This song is super melodramatic and completely self serious and it hits home very well. Also glad I'm not the only one who hears the Linkin Park
It does sound like a healthy mix of those three.
I actually saw an AI generated Chester Bennington cover of this and it was fkn awesome. It would have been so good for Chester
Nihilist Blues is one of my favorite songs of the last ten years tbh. And I love their heavy stuff mostly
I didn't know what to expect, but i ended up liking this very much. I was head bopping throughout the whole song. So catchy and the lyrics remind me of their more sad times.
I really love the fact that Nik loves Amen so much. I instantly had the same thoughts when i heard Amen for the first time.
The lp vibe is strong with this one
Breaking benjamin.
Yeah, it reminded me of 1x1 and I really liked that. I guess Next Gen will refer more to mental issues, with Lost, Strangers and now Darkside, these kind of lyrics to relate to. And I also found it fine that the song is shorter, just not to repeat 1x1 structure completely, it says pretty much within those 3 minutes. Some interesting sound ideas were there, and yeah, definitely LP vibes.
To sum up, really excited what the album's going to bring, the only concern that if it's an EP again I wish there would be at least 10 songs, cause we have a few songs already released.
Absolutely had mid-2000s feel. My immediate thoughts were it's giving Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, 10 Years, Linkin Park influences. I particularly loved that era, so I'm not mad about it in the least. Deeming it a slay! I love the nostalgia they are conjuring in me with this single and "Lost." ✶🖤
How are their choruses always so dang catchy? I just KNOW I'll be having this one stuck in my head the whole day now. I love all BMTH styles, I like others more, but I still love this! So not even complaining. Love it!
to me this song wasnt supposed to be a single but they had to pick something to tie over the fans since they delayed the album but also wanted so save the heavy hitters for the actual album drop so its a safe pick
These lyrics have so many easter eggs for a lot of those 2000 emo songs. It's pretty cool.
this is definitely a filler track they used as a single to compensate for the delay of the new album, great song nonetheless and would DEFINITELY hit much harder live. just wish there was a LITTLE bit more because the song seems a little too safe, but that’s honestly not a bad thing either i had the song on repeat for hours and the looping is perfect for streaming lol
It’s going to be a nice palette cleanser on the album. I have a feeling some songs are going to be absolute chaos, and this song will bring it back to earth. Lol
Just a thought.
@@GenesysRider23 i agree i feel like they may have some chaotic stuff in store just because of the fact that they had to delay the entire project and the fact that they are working with paledusk as well who are some of the craziest and most creative bands out there in my opinion, it’s gonna be a ride for sure
💯
Looking forward to reactions for new ink, spiritbox and Blink!!
new blink is totally shit
Honestly with the live perfomance adding a whole new breakdown to dear diary and extend to teardrops they can just add something new for the concerts to be more special, maybe this could have something else in live perfomance, who knows
This song is going to be one of the big ones on the next EP. They've put out some solid songs since Post-Human Survival Horror. This song is anthemic, and I'm here for it tbh.
Unpopular opinion but this is perfect as it is, 1x1 is one of their best songs and this is a perfect sequel. I LOVE it and wouldnt want it any other way
4:59 the disappointment in his face
Late night radio rock is what they were aiming for with this one. And that's fine. For a band that started off as grindcore, then deathcore, then metalcore, then toned it down for a couple albums, then went experimental, then tried to bring the heavy back, they've done it all and there's not much they can do to surprise us anymore.
idk a jazz album would be a twist
@@Llama_charmerfuture pop jazz core is always on the table.
@@Llama_charmertheir drummer is totally capable of this challenge lol
Grindcore? I feel like the first EP was more mathcore than grindcore.
They are gonna do dubstep, mark my words 😂
I like the chorus. That’s the takeaway for me. Nice song.
Am I the only one that noticed part of it sounded like "Centuries" by Fall Out Boy? Specifically in the bridge to the short breakdown? I mean, they've been touring with FOB, so it makes sense.
You're not the only one and, in fact "my memories are haunting me" is the exact same with centuries
@@AubreyNoelleqtx Wow, crazy!
that breakdown point had so much potential. Its not bad by any means, but i would have loved to hear a super heavy roll out to the end of the song.
Agreed
Love the whole visualizer of this song, feels like were 25 Years ago.
The song is amazing, great Chorus & it is catchy & well.. it is BMTH. They are just so good
I think this is overall a decent and catchy track, but I also think that this is better suited as a deepcut track in the album and should to be seen that way. It's not really meant to compete with recent hit tracks like Lost or Amen. They released this one as a simple, lesser huge track to warm us up before releasing the whole nexgen album which is soon. The lads want to save some banger tracks for the last lol.
You are showing all my emotions about this song! :D
I love their choruses they do it so well, but they’re missing the slam!
That's a fair opinion to have, but when criticizing art, it's important to not only focus on your own criteria, but to ask yourself: "What was the artist going for?"
I think this song wasn't meant to have "the slam". As BMTH have stated, this EP will have a lot of emo/pop-punk influence, so I think with "darkside", they wanted to go for something more basic and "relaxed" (at least compared to some of their other songs)...
I genuinely can't remember the last time I didn't absolutely fucking love a BMTH chorus
I really like the dark broody mood to this song. I think all the songs they’ve released for this cycle has been have been really enjoyable. Would say LosT and AmEN! sit above it but still very much enjoy this
BMTHs new album is gonna be sick
I think it's pretty cool, tons of references to 2000/2010 songs like last resort, centuries or heathens
Which lyrics here were reference to each of those 3 tunes?
I agree I think they could a done a huge break down after that bridge or make it double the length then drop into the soft chorus build up. still works though.
i want this album out already
You gotta wait 😂
Fave after Amen! Really Linkin Park-y and I'm so cool with that 😊❤
I randomly heard this from my spotify playlist today and this thing is catchy asf frwakin amazing rock sounds and beats amazing sounds. I'm not emo btw but it makes me wanna like the rock genre again
Yo imagine they release the EP and the actual song expands on that breakdown and goes crazy with it. How sick would that be, like has anyone done anything like that?
4:55 is this what they mean by "edging"?
This track gives me the Overflow Polaris vibes but still polaris has a chunky breakdown, but it plays as the chill track in the album just like Overflow in Fatalism, great album btw:)
Idk why it's kind of reminding me of Within Temptation's newer songs, especially the beginning part, but I love both bands so much so it made me love this song instantly.
Last time I saw them live they extended a lot of breakdowns, would be incredibly sick if they did that with this song!
Cool song, great lyrics once again. BMTH always speak to my heart. I might have not even been alive today if I wasn't listening to this band.
Ollie Sykes was born in the same hospital as me in Ashford Kent. But he grew up in up north in Yorkshire and spent some of his childhood in Adelaide and Perth Australia which is where I live now!
This will be chorus of the year for the next metal awards, change my mind…
Dude… seriously?
Your under the honey moon effect of chorus my guy
Bro you gotta listen to more music
What about Werewolf?
These reply's need to get better music tastes lol
Absolutely love the song
I absolutely love this song especially the lyrics
I love this Papa Roach - Last Resort reference. "Don't give a fuck if I cut my arms bleeding" / "Don't give a fuck if my hearts stops beating" …
Feel like they made this radio friendly to promote the album, still some great lyrics, but yea I would have preferred a nasty breakdown and closer instead of a 3rd chorus
You’ve missed so many influences. Papa roach “last resort” fall out boy “centuries” even Adema “giving in” this blended so much….
I was never in to bmth more into bands like pwd, as i lay dying, bury tommorow, killswitch. that kind of metalcore. my girlfriend who is a big fan of bmth lets me listen to bmth. not my thing but I can appreciate the last 3 singles. Lost is good. Amen is 🤘🔥 and Darkside is so catchy. I think my girlfriend is very happy with this haha
This is a nice addition to the eventual album. It’s an instant hitter and nice to hear his voice. He is class
The lyrics are fire 🔥🔥
This DOES take me back to mid 2000s emo honestly.
Felt whole waves of nostalgia just wash over me.
always gotta go back and listen to these when the full album comes out, usually makes way more sense in the context of the album
Just picking apart how sad and dark the song is in general im really happy with it. It couldve been full metalcore fucking emo rage for sure but idk the way its played so straight is very reminiscent to me of like Linkin Park making it one of those tracks you just really feel. Like i can imagine this at a show and the whole crowd just chants it exactly like so many songs off Thats the Spirit. Its moving a lot like those songs, as you alluded to.
But maybe im just saying that because its been stuck in my head all day. Definitely a favorite. But a heartbreaker, reminds me of bad times. Its classic Bring Me The Horizon stuff
i absolutely love this song!!
BMTH is a very good Band, I found them last year
If the breakdown was just a second or two longer it would be a 11/10 for me, but still a 10/10 regardless.
Come on bruh. Good tune but how can you give it a 10/10 perfect score? It’s a solid, safe, yet non-earth shattering track
The EP was supposed to drop a while ago but it was delayed, I feel like this was just a song they put out there to make sure the fans don’t go insane via lack of new songs every three months. Still a good song though, doesn’t hit as hard as lost or amen or die4u, but I liked it more than strangers I think.
Nik uploads= Good Friday
My favorite single, DArkSide, by BMTH, my favorite chrous, this album is going to be one if their best, no doubt
For BMTH, when I really like a song, I REALLY like it, given it’s from Semiternal and later, and there’s only been a few of their songs that have done it for me, I really like Shadow Moses, The House Of Wolves, Sleepwalking, Happy Song and Throne, I enjoy most of Sempiternal besides Can You Feel My Heart, I’ve heard it so much that it’s just lost any value to me, I don’t mind Amen, although I have my issues with it, most of their other stuff is just kinda ok I guess, I don’t really mind Mantra either, but some of their stuff is a little bit too soft for my tastes, but this has honestly surprised me, it’s really good.
its one thing to just be an easy listening rock song, and another when you can almost feel a breakdown coming and its just a chorus repeat. Was a little let down from it but all in all was a good track.
I kinda feel like the fact that the breakdown lasted so for so short shows how Bringe Me can create expectations and then shatter those instantly
Agreed pretty much on all accords lol
Could have done more heaviness, chorus catchy af as expected at this point lol.
Nik: "THERE WE GO!!! BREAKDOWN"
Oli: "hey"
This is probably my fav song since Sleepwalking in Sandpit Turtle due to the lyrics and chorus. And that's saying a lot cuz Amen is a banger
This song is a return to anxiety which i love.
I like this BMTH ❤️
First verse reminds of 'Heathens' from Twenty One Pilots
I’m so happy to see so many people enjoying this song 🤘
I actually love this song and wish it was longer its very catchy and further proves that Bring Me can do whatever they want and though it may not be for everyone it is for someone
i CANNOT wait for niks Cellar Door reaction
Well I have a theory about that song.
I think they wrote it approx. at the same time than 1x1 because there is a lot of similarities in the instrumental and the vocal hook. Like the drum is very very alike! Not a bad song tho I listen to it very often these days.
Imagine the music video!
I love it, been listening to it almost all day long 😁
Me too
the vibes like in the dark x 1x1.
Yassss gotta love bmth
And niks dissappointment when the song doesnt make his brain hurt 😂
It’s very much Linkin Park-ish, when I heard the snippet of it for the first time my initial thought was that it’s very similar to 1x1 and Hybrid Theory coded
Tbh it’s a good song, might seem a bit underwhelming since they have been dropping crazy songs lately (Amen, Lost, Werewolf)
I think they dropped it to feed us some content until they finally release the album
I like the song, it’s good to have a track more on a chill side
It makes the album well-balanced
And the chorus is a banger af
BMTH is so damn good at making chorus
Nik you should check out the new spiritbox track cellar door my dude, love your vids man 🙏🏽
If they kept the breakdown for longer, maybe do a little switch up after a few bars, drag it on a little and maybe lead it into the chorus or something else wacky like they’re so good at doing, this song couldve been one of the best released this year lowkey. Pretty good but have to agree, a little bit too safe to be a worldie song imo 😂
BREAKING NEWS: this just in, opinion has changed. absolute banger
i think that the most catchy chorus they've made it's in oh no, in the album "that's the spirit"
As someone who’s not into this kind of music this song has gotten me interested and am now listening to a lot of new stuff
Been waiting for thisssssss
For me, a lot of the problem is the lack of variation in the drumming. If you throw in some blast beats here and there, it would be a banger.
Well well well Nik I guess we're looking up to you to make that breakdown happen
I like this song. I reckon 1x1 is underrated with the nova twins. It's a really cool song
DArkSide is …
A banger !!
If you have not heard of it, please give blameless by if not for me a shot. Small band from my hometown starting to blow up off this track
I was waiting literally 5 hours for him to react to this. ever since it released.
Bring me the chorus huehuehue
