Bring Me The Horizon and Yungblud Join Forces In 'Obey' Video
Alternative rock and pop-punk powerhouse Yungblud has joined forces with Bring Me the Horizon in their latest track and music video ‘Obey’. As the 2nd track released under Bring Me The Horizon's new four track project Post Human, the relation between ‘Obey’ and ‘Parasite Eve’ is undeniable building an exciting anticipation for the release of the third installment. The track also sees Yungblud replace his pop-punk style for a much heavier metal performance - which he fits effortlessly into.
The music video, directed by Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes, follows two giant robots - manned by Sykes and Yungblud - as they dance toward their battleground and fight their way through the heavy guitar riffs. However, the video takes an unexpected romantic turn as we see the robotic protagonists leave happily hand-in-hand into the sunset. While the video may see a happy ending for our robot like protagonists, the song itself says quite the opposite - calling out the restraints and corruption of the authority figures we are told to follow in the anthemic melody of the track.
