This works ridiculously well. Honestly just proof that BMTH’s cross platform/genre appeal really is impressive.

Yes!!

2y↑22

Its quite saddening as they've become rather shite after Sempiternal, like their early stuff was so damn heavy

Krystine Campbell

2y↑1

Exactly

Flowerfloc__

2y↑56

@I am Jake did you listen to post human survival horror that EP is better then sempiternal, and that comes from a long time fan.

Oli, said he doesn't really wanna scream anymore, and the whole band are like in their mid 30's now and no angry teenagers, they make stuff they like now, and idk if you listened to die4u but that song is a fucking banger.

@I am Jake In "Heavy Metal" they dissed guys like you, who cares only for heavy stuff xd
If they were stuck in their subgenre, they wouldn't be as popular as they are now. I am happy about that they are doing things the way that they do it because they can introduced heavy stuff to whole new audience, especially thanks to collabs. Also their repertoire is so big and varied that anyone can find song for themself.
This is way more challanging than repeating constantly the same songs every album.

As an example let's bring up fall out boy. I am respecting their decisions about their sound, just don't like their new poppy style. Anyway, someday they released Pax Am Days, in 2013, just before "Save Rock n Roll" album. Pax Am Days sounds like their early albums with heavy punk/hardcore influence. They made it in a fucking week, WEEK. 8 tracks in 7 days, produced, mixed just WTF. They proved that they still can play heavy stuff and i am sure they had a fun making this, but how long can you make the same thing without getting bored or exhausted? Also this is easy, there is no challange in it if you at the level when you play in a band 10+ years. Maybe because they are still developing new sounds, they are still around here. They still can a make an event and play their old songs just for old fans. IMO this is the same case with BMTH.

Don't make your judge on them just because they make stuff that you don't like. It's okey to dislike their songs, everyone has different taste. But if you consider quality of production, mixing, variety of genres and influences that they implement in their songs and so on... you just can't objectively tell that they make shit. In terms of quality of their stuff this is far better than sempiternal, just in a bit different style.

Honestly the most impressive thing about Anthony is just how he nails so many vocalists, often completely different, voices and styles.

Guillermo De la Rosa

TRUE.

Velin Sevven

Well to be fair his channel did used to be based around impressions

RYO-kai

@Velin Sevven In a way it still is, but just taken to a level that's over 9000, with a lot of original creativity in arranging and essentially writing/composing as needed to bring it to life.

I love that you've chosen the style of "Sleepwalking" for this. It goes really well

This is so incredibly similar to sempiternal its almost creepy, very well done!

"In the style of Bring Me The Horizon" is such a massive range of options, but still such a unique and easy to recognize sound somehow.

Nick Cook Art

Jesus! Your Oli Sykes is spot on and he has really unique quirks to his voice. Amazing!!!

SlippingJimmys

2y↑31

He's missing the thick British accent, otherwise it's brilliant

Goner.

2y↑29

@SlippingJimmys it’s specifically Sheffield, which is in Yorkshire. As a Brit, I take minor offense as to when you generalize it as just a “British accent”. There’s many. Same deal as how you can’t do just an “American accent”, because there are many.

Even the little vocal cries at the end of the screams in the verses? Oh my god this is perfect.

All it's missing for that extra cherry on top is Oli's classic "reaching for help" stance lol

AlizMari23

2y↑251

Plenty of artists can belt notes, and plenty can sing, but not many can find the real balance between singing while screaming quite like Ollie, but you do a fantastic job of singing in his style.

Semu

It's as if Sempiternal and Survival Horror had a baby! This version has the vibes of Sleepwalking and something else that make it sound really fresh and I love it

Bytrius

I haven't even heard the original yet but this sounds AWESOME. Really captured a lot of different eras of the band, from Sempiternal to amo!

The original is actually pretty good too

Logan Viking

2y↑12

When I saw Anthony post this, I looked up the original first to know what I was about to hear. It was two minutes and forty-five seconds of my life I won't get back, but it's good to know what he was working with.
This was so much better than the original, and I'm not a much of a BMTH fan, but it sounded pretty spot-on.

anonimai

2y↑3

definitely doesn't sound anything like count your blessings but the band itself hasn't sounded anything like that since either 😅

Guillermo De la Rosa

Same with me, I've never heard it haha. Nice work by Anthony (as always).

Bring Me The Horizon has so many styles they have used its hard to pin a single distinct style, but this definitely "feels" like BMTH, that just raw unfiltered emotion no matter if they are doing screamo, metal, or something experimental..

Rami Tafankajy

2y↑212

Can't believe Todd made it .. you killed it guys! the second verse sounds exactly like sleepwalking and the pre chorus is literally DROWN WoW!

Evie

BMTH is absolutely in my top 5 favs of all time, and you captured their diverse, thrilling style really well imo. also harry styles is just objectively iconic so this is the sickest thing i've ever heard high key

Amir Creates

I’ve never heard the original, and now I have no desire. No way it’s better than this version. Great job guys! 👍🏼👍🏼

kerPlanck1331

same here lol

Alex Hannigan

2y↑212

Whoa, this is truly an original cover and interpretation of this song. Most rock covers are more predictable and follow the same melodies with heavier bits. But this sounds completely different and unrecognizable to the original, in a good way.

Angel fish

2y↑3

Sorry, but this ain’t rock, it’s metal

Firdaus Zainudin

I think Breaking Bad Guy is the best so far.

I often wonder if the origininal artists ever see these. This shit slaps.

almost cried listening to this cause it sounds like their older stuff and it just took me back

Same my friend, felt like I went back in time and made me feel younger again heh

MrWhippy

2y↑2

older stuff? you mean from That's the Spirit?

scorpihoe x

@MrWhippy sounds more like Sempiternal

MrWhippy

@scorpihoe x hmm... low-key sounds like "seen it all before." You right. I forget how good sempiternal actually is. Thanks for making me go back and revisit such a good album again

It's scary how similar to BMTH it actually sounds. Great cover!

Mister Matix

2y↑75

I love BMTH, this tracks works EXCEPTIONALLY as one of theirs. The staccato playing, the vocals. I could totally see Olly Sykes singing this. It could definitely be a cut from Sempiternal or Post Human

Emil Holst

2:45 DAMN! Todd goes in HARD!

There's this really distinctive quality to oli's voice that I can't quite put into words that you actually managed to channel! Mad respect.

Zodi978

I'm always impressed Anthony's ability to mimic the tone of other singers. Maybe he doesn't sound exactly like Ollie sounds but there's definitely parts where it sounds just like him, especially in the vocal fry/screaming. Great job!

DarkTerrorX

This Artist should have waaaay more visibility than he actually have, this is a piece of art my friends. Anthony you are very good!

Sempiternal is my favorite bmth album and I like how we can find similar sounds, like the bridge if shadow Moses or the one of hospital for soul. The song is so amazing this way !!!

It's so great to see Todd coillaborating with such a huge icon of youtube music! Both of you kick ass, this was a pleasure through and through!

Ryan Krist

What the actual FUCK dude?? This legitimately gave me goosebumps -- the arrangement on this is beautiful, the production is perfect, both of your vocal tracks absolutely NAILED it, and the drums are an absolute deadringer for Bring Me -- I was NOT prepared to have an emotional reaction to this, but GODDAMN son, this is SO GOOD! This might be my favorite styles track you've ever produced! WELL. FUCKING. DONE. 👏👏👏

This sound is them in their Sempiternal/That's the Spirit days. They have both heavier and softer material than this. Have fun!

It's really really close to their song Sleepwalking in particular.

After listening this very interesting cover version of As it Was with BMTH style, this whole song melody does sounded like a combination vibes of Sleepwalking (Sempiternal, 2013) and Throne (That’s The Spirit, 2015). And it actually worked, keep up your awesome cover style songs Anthony!!! Can’t wait to hear more surprising or better yet, more cover song style with my all time favorite, Linkin Park!!!
