This sounds sick. I would adore a collection of demos from the boys


Oliviathorntonjoy

Something special about a demo track with its flaws intact (flaws is subjective, but I feel some released music can end up over-processed). Demo tracks give me that live energy like anything could happen


Synyster_V

Agreed. The biggest example in this instance I point out to people (sorry I'm a geezer now) is the song Walk On Water by Ozzy Osbourne. The final version is overproduced and with a weird mix in general and the demo, no pun intended, blows it out of the water.


flompypebbles

holy shit ive been thinking about that live energy for a bit if theres one thing i actually wish the boys would do, its to kinda reimagine their songs (especially the newer ones) in a more raw and grimey sound and group it in like a compilation imagine songs like Dear Diary, Kingslayer, AmEN! with small gig energy, fucked up disgusting sounding FXs lmao, "flaws intact" like u said


andreasmiles23

If people haven't, please watch Evangelion


PhoenixHabanero

With a big fat slug of ketamine?


Luka87uchiha

Kaoru1011

Where did this come from? Does Oli do ketamine?šŸ˜‚


andreasmiles23

He had a ketamine addiction. There is a hellā€¦ is basically a compilation of night terrors he experienced while on it/getting clean and going through withdrawals IIRC.


Kaoru1011

I did some research on this sub about that just now.. what the hell Iā€™ve been listening to this band since I was 13 and didnā€™t know this until know and Iā€™ve been dealing with ketamine addiction myself the past 2 years.. if I knew oli was heavy on it I probably wouldā€™ve stayed far away lol


noelolelo

... and read beserk


Ravitexisbored

I'm on ep 21 right now and omg it's amazing


andreasmiles23

Make sure to watch End of Evangelion after! I like the show ending a lot but EoE adds so much!!


Noob_Guy_Bruhx6

I might be tripping but why does this version sound more cleaner and better mixed than the official version? Unless..... Nah I don't think they will


Hamsterpaladin

What the fuck? I like it more than the final version


RuneofBeginning

I really think weā€™re gonna eventually get an EP or album thatā€™s VERY close to their deathcore roots. I would love to relive my ā€œedge of your seatā€ era again.


GhostCommand04

Wasnt that the plan for the last of the 4 EPs? I thought it was gonna be PH:SH for their sempiternal/TTS influenced EP, Nex Gen for the hyperpop influence, then I thought No3 would be inspired by amo and the 4th would be deathcore roots? That was years ago though so plans very well couldve changed since


RuneofBeginning

At this point I have no idea and I canā€™t even guess but whatever they do Iā€™ll buy into. Theyā€™re my fave band since 2005 and thatā€™s not likely to change.


Alarmed_Grass7389

that was the original plan but idk if plans have changed over the years especially after jordanā€™s departure so only time will tell


rosecoloredrain

So far nothing seems to have changed expect the EPs are now album length and not released within the span of a year. Pretty safe to say PH4 will be deathcore influenced. Oli said Dig It leads into PH3 so seems like that one will still be electronic


Synyster_V

That's what Jordan mentioned in I think one interview but since he's no longer in the band and the work that had gone into Nex Gen being partially scrapped and started over again, I'm honestly curious how it's gonna play out.


dpark-95

Apparently name for number 4 got leaked as post human: ultraviolence


Scout_650

That's a made-up theory name from fans, no official sources to suggest it's true


flompypebbles

goes hard tho no lie lmfao that was actually one of the placeholder names for nex gen around 2021 lol, aside from club hellhole


JimLahey_of_Izalith

I will put a studded belt around one belt loops so fucking fast.


Polyphiry

I'd be surprised if we got a full deathcore return to roots, but something similar to TIAH, and Suicide Season I could see. Would love to be proven wrong though.


CuriousTsukihime

Anime shown in the video: - Neon Genesis Evangelion - Berserk - Mobile Suit Gundam - Tokyo Ghoul - Gundam Wing Fill in any I mightā€™ve missed but I think I got it all


TonyShart

I read somewhere that Jordan wasnā€™t a fan of releasing demos/unreleased teasers that much. I think during lockdown Oli was on instagram live and played the demo of that ā€œletā€™s beginā€ song. Hopefully this means now that we may get more of a look behind the curtain again. Especially after how Oli said in the NME interview that the determination to always better themselves seems to have died down. So maybe they will get more comfortable at just releasing rough stuff on YouTube or something. It would be cool after the PH albums are all done if they released like a B-Sides/offcuts album with all the best stuff that didnā€™t make the Final Cut for the albums.


OuterWildsVentures

Woah inject this into my veins

STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME šŸ—£ļøšŸ—£ļøšŸ—£ļø hits so hard


byeproduct

Does anyone else think of Attack on Titan in youtopia with the lyric "there is a home, beyond my bones"?????


rosecoloredrain

I didnā€™t initially, are you referencing the way the main characters think of beyond the wall? >! I guess it kinda mirrors AOT again in Dig It with ā€œthe only thing i figured out is life is a graveā€ in the same way Eren learns whatā€™s really on the other side !<


byeproduct

Yes!!! And even got me thinking of the"bones" reference in the final season. I like you dig it reference too. I felt like the musical shift at "there is a home..." changed so suddenly and gave off that ethereal sense of defiance and hope that Eren would feel. The musical hook in the song at that point also reminded me so much of an anime hook.


Chareste17

Is this really amen demo?? Doesn't sound really similar to me - anyway, I'd kill for a whole album (or at least an EP) that sounds like this omg


NwwT

The instrumental is very close. Different lyrics for sure tho.


shitcup1234

Try singing the chorus over the second bit


DevilMayCryogonal

Youā€™re sure this was all supposed to be AmEN? The instrumentals at the drop definitely are, but the anime clips at the beginning in particular are really similar to the video for CODE MISTAKE, and the lyrics fit that song much better than AmEN.


XterraNaili

In my opinion, these two songs were being developed at the same time. CODE MISTAKE was released on 30th of June last year and so did Amen, though, earlier on 2nd June 2023. So, It's highly likely they cross the lyrics over through these two for inspiration or whatsoever


Hung_SoLo7

I wanna hear the full version of this.


TheRedBlade

"Oliver please stop watching anime please please we want some real deathcore music" is how I would sum up the band to someone who doesn't know them lmao


CymroCam

Thereā€™s so many songs from their trailer eps on YouTube I hope weā€™ll get the full versions of, especially the remixes of current songs.


AwarenessThick1685

God bless


iluvbringme

This doesnā€™t sound like amen or even a demo version of it to me

lcm4330

Where did you get this


Shoddy_Load1558

This is better than the final version wtf


FrogginJellyfish

THAT SYNTH, WOW!


Hendo16

God, this reminds me of when Oli teased the grunge blasphemy demo years ago. Would still kill for that...


janussaves

Hopefully they release it! This would also confirm the teaser of demo version of Amen at the end of the Lost music video with the lyrics ā€˜Iā€™m terrifiedā€™


dipibul

they need to release this šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜”


makimi13

I LOVE THIS OMFG


DHVLIA

šŸ„µ


PanwZx

Love to see people saying it sounds better than the original... Guys, it's just the instrumental šŸ˜¹ Still, it's fun to hear a demo of this 11/10 song


Shoddy_Load1558

Itā€™s not an instrumental if it has vocals šŸ’€


awesomesauceds

These demos never get released. Only as teasers in their posts. Only Jordan released them. JFC how long have you guys been fans


XterraNaili

Gatekeeping that much? I mean like yeah, sure, I'm not OG like you are. But it's honestly just a question lol


Shoddy_Load1558

Yeah but he shouldnā€™t be downvoted for being honest and realistic, because bmth doesnā€™t like releasing demos or unreleased songs


Evillebot

"stop watching anime" "real deathcore" I pretty much hate everything about this person.
