(Metal Hammer) Bring Me The Horizon hope to "push it a bit weirder" on their next album, according to Oli Sykes. Though they took a different direction on their latest work That's The Spirit, the frontman admits they still remained in their comfort zone when making the record.
He tells NME: "People thought That's The Spirit was a very polished pop rock album - it's not. I think it's inventive and unique, but it's still safe in a way. We knew the songs were going to connect well with people. Next time I think we want to push it a bit weirder. Who knows?"
Sykes says they might experiment with "a darker, dance-y kind of sound" on their next album - which he says could translate well to live shows. But he says the band will probably take "at least a good month" off before they begin writing again.
He adds: "It's been an intense year for us, and not just in professional terms but like personal too. Some of the band have had a lot on their plates and stuff. We do enjoy writing organically and letting something happen, but we've been working pretty relentlessly for the last album." Read more here.
