There’s more clues to find still?! It’s time to pour over Top 10 Statues every way I can ✍️ Having grown up wishing I’d of been old enough to participate in Year Zero by NIN? Getting these concept albums from BMTH & TØP, finding clues, lore, secret sites, and online collaboration with other fans has been incredible 🤝❤️
lemme get that
This is so awesome, thank you for interviewing them in such a curious and enthusiastic way!
Love how they really went out of their way to make this album an experience in and out of the music itself
DUDE, that 'mono' trick at the end of statues freaked me out when I was listening to it on my phone on the shower, I thought my phone's speakers had broken or smth
MAN I WAS ABOU TO COMMENT THE SAME THING, when I realize it was the song i thought it would have been discovered already
Yo I’ve heard the album a few times but never on my studio speakers and I thought my ears were busted 😂
I just tried it and it kind of worked, but I couldn’t make out anything that was being said. It just sounded like a really quiet tinny robot noise. Did I miss something?
This is honestly one of the coolest things I’ve seen a band do with their music
This album is a true work of art. So much work and attention to details, the lore. they built an entire universe around it
Even after watching this I still don’t get how you put a QR code into a song. So damn cool
This is what creativity is all about. Breaking the boundaries. BMTH are by far one of the most artistic creatives in the industry right now.
Alex, you have been selected as our lucky winner, congratulations! Please DM us on Instagram by the end of the week so we can make arrangements to deliver your prize 🏆
Wow thank you so much!! I will DM you now
dude this album is amazing😭😭they’re so unbelievably creative and talented woaw
Wouldnt have known any of these if it werent for this podcast 😭😭 thats actually crazy the detail they put into this album, this whole release with the membership card thing is so interactive
When the album released It was Amazing, all the BMTH community was trying to figure out the secret things in the website
They are still trying!! ^^
Phenomenal interview series. Thanks for interviewing the guys, we can't to get them live back here in the states.
It’s crazy how many little things that artists put into their work to make it complete. Putting a QR code into a song is freaking wild. So cool!
I LOVED this! amazing! I attended the show at Allianz Parque, BMTH was amazing! I'm into the ARG so I've been paying attention to everything! congratulations with this masterpiece!
lmaoooo I actually knew about the mono bit in statues but I thought it was my earbuds being broken when I listened in mono with just one and I was always annoyed I couldn't hear what I was supposed to with stereo
Super interesting and in depth podcast! Been following Bring Me The Horizon for well over a decade now and it’s really nice seeing them evolve their sound and production. As a producer myself I take a lot of inspiration and questions from them 🙏🏽
That’s why their work is more than music, is one of the few bands that I actually like the way in which they have evolved.
PD: I NEED THAT VINYL
This has to be my fav album by BMTH, the world building and attention to detail not just for them but for the fans is really amazing and shows in the music! again super motivating and inspiring ❤️ would love to have this on vinyl 😭😭
Respect for the amount work it took to include all of that. I knew they had to be hidden things in the songs, didnt know how de veil them
when he was mentioning using a qr code image to sound it automatically came to mind was Aphex twins with the cats n stuff, Mick gordon also too in Doom's soundtracks he produced , i remember way back when there was a free image to sound program where you import jpegs or pngs and it transcribed it to sound and you can see the image with spectogram it was a free program that did crash the daw and the sound card choice would crash and either had to reboot the compuiter or choose a different audio driver, easiest way to do that would be using Fl studios "Harmour" plugin to do the image to sound thing i havent fucked with doing that in some off time and i now use ableton, but this techn ique is what i'd recommend
This is really cool how much effort have been put into the album. I don't really sure that ANY popular artists make that kind of little secrets or details to give their work such atmosphere and the strong vibe for fans. So cool!
Unbelievable how creative these guys are! They just raise the bar every time! I knew about the QR code, but the mono thing just blew my mind again. My only problem was with the hidden massage at the end of the record is that it's too far away, and it's a bit weird to listening to that long quiet part, especially on the vinyl. It could have been 15 seconds and it would still work.
@2:30 HOLY CRAP LET'S GO
Saw them for third time yesterday in Chile! They're better than ever!
BMTH is on another level! The QR code idea in a song is absolutely insane!🖤
Hidden messages and treasure hunts in music are always fun, love that they included it.
I actually discovered the Statues easter egg at the final of the song really fast, I got a cheap speaker that apparently play music in mono, so I was listening the album there and when the song was ending, that happened and it was confusing because it's just a voice talking, really cool easter egg ❤
BMTH is constantly setting a new standard for bands, never disappointing fans.
IM SO HAPPY WITH THIS INTERVIEW
Love the ARG elements to the band, looking forward to diving into the full podcast episode! :D
Such an amazing interview!! They're the best in the game for sure
Discovered these guys a year ago with Parasite Eve and it has was a joy going through their discography simultaneously prepping for the new album. I slowly made my way through all their music finding the gems and the gem of the gems and I just wish I knew of them sooner lol. So many missed shows -_-
Love this vid wish it was longer ❤
the qr code within the video reminds me of that scene in the film serenity when river goes and beats up all the people in the bar, i think its super cool and innovative to do something like this, always an inspiration friends
This album came at the perfect time, it's a masterpiece that can be listened to start to finish. I'm not even surprised that there are hidden easter eggs within the album, it makes sense given the creative nature of the record.
Epic album! Epic creativity! What beautiful humans (not simply a band) who come up with art in every sense of the word.❤
I have kind of noticed something on staTues. Whenever I played the song on Alexa, the end riff after that last "tonight we go to war" completely vanished and this girl with a high-pitched voice startes saying something. I looked it up and others had noticed the same thing but nobody could figure out what the voice was saying.
BMTH never dissapoints! love this album 🙏🏻
when I saw this qr code for the first time it kinda scared me and I was just like: "wtf"
My favorite album of the year, super cool easter egg, i want this record
This is why I have loved Bring Me for so long
that hidden lore in this album is just crazy
Love the fact all of us on FB were tryna figure out the hidden stuff throughout the whole album...our poor brains could never figure all that out 😂
So interesting to hear them talk about this!
The lore is a complete madness, love them for creating it
Love Oli and love the content ❤️
Thank you for having my favorite band!

SO COOL
So cool
Love BMTH!!!
We gotta do some Linkin Park Fan level digging this time 🤣
Subreddit gonna go crazy
They have already discovered it a day or two after the album released and have been continuously trying to figure things out ever since. Lots of passwords required for each and every menu you go through
@@ludens1472 only the silence at the ending of the album was discovered, which had some ten-eleven demos and stuff? I don't remember anything else been found?
oli keeps saying no one figured out Statues but I figured it out the second day the album was out in the shower because my bluetooth is mono, when i went to the reddit i was able to find multiple posts where people had already found it too LMAO
@@noparkingnoparking everyone was talking about a password that was never found to a specific folder?
@AshishPrinz More things have been found out related to lore (especially regarding the angels, Strassman (yk the specs guy in spotify puss-E vid). They update the site once in a while and give hints regarding passwords for new areas in their social media posts. Remember that unbeLEEvable video they uploaded a while ago? It was actually hidden behind a password in the ARG site and only after they gained access to it, the vid was uploaded everywhere some days later.
Forever inspired and in awe of this band's creativity and genius 😮💨🤌🏻
How to find the QR code in spectrograph? TH-cam to mp3 in rx didn't work.
