Bring Me The Horizon, AmEN! | Track Review

Bring Me The Horizon enlists Lil Uzi Vert, Daryl Palumbo, and Glassjaw for the dynamic, unapologetic rock single, “AmEN!”

When it comes to Bring Me The Horizon, is there any way possible NOT to rock TF out ? Hell naw! Oli Sykes and company even manage to bring religion into it on their single, “AmEN!”. “I hope you have fun rotting in hell / Swim the witch, slay the infidel,” Sykes sings in the first verse, adding, “Suck a dick, heretic / I hate you / And I’d like to see you burn, burn, burn.” WOO! If you were wondering if Oli had grown religious, however, no worries – he’s still very much atheist: “Just let me suffer (suffer in peace).” Assisting Sykes are the colorful Lil Uzi Vert, Daryl Palumbo, and Glassjaw.

Safe to say, Sykes, Uzi Vert, and Palumbo kick ass and take names on “AmEN!” – can I get a hallelujah, church ?  With the tone set in the first verse – again, “suck a dick, heretic” – the chorus puts a cap on it. “Too late to repent / The wicked will reap what they sow,” Sykes sings, assisted by Palumbo, adding, “We will sanctify (Rise, my brethren ) / Purify (Purge out the sin).” Holy Hell – err, I mean, heaven! Palumbo performs the second verse, continuing to highlight heresy and such, with Lil Uzi Vert supporting the second half: “Yeah, you fanatics prey on me, hate on me / Patiently waiting to watch me bleed / Get your head from out of my ass / Got me feeling like a human centipede.” Gah-day-ummm! Basically, Oli and company are telling religious fanatics to leave them TF alone! Message received, in a colorful, rock-tastic way on “AmEN!” a surefire BANGER!
