Post Human: Survival Horror

Post Human: Survival Horror is a commercial release by British rock band Bring Me the Horizon. It was released on 30 October 2020 and is intended to be the first in a series of four projects to be released by the band under the Post Human name. The release was produced by frontman Oli Sykes and keyboardist Jordan Fish, with additional production from composer Mick Gordon. Stylistically, the release marks return to the heavier and more aggressive metalcore sound of the band's earlier material.

The release was preceded by four singles: "Ludens", which was also previously released as a single on the Timefall soundtrack for Death Stranding, "Parasite Eve", "Obey", and "Teardrops". The release received generally positive reviews from critics and became the band's second UK number one release. The second Post Human installment, Post Human: Nex Gen, originally set to be released on 15 September 2023 was delayed until it was released on 24 May 2024. The lengthy delay came as a result of "unforeseeable circumstances" that left the band being unable to complete the record in time.

On 20 March 2020, the band announced that they were in a home studio, writing and recording material for their eighth record, which was expected to be an extended play (EP), with part of it being co-produced by video game composer Mick Gordon. After playing the video game Doom Eternal during the COVID-19 lockdowns and being inspired by Gordon's soundtrack for the game, lead vocalist Oliver Sykes contacted Gordon to help produce the song "Parasite Eve" and the release as a whole. In August 2020, the band's keyboardist Jordan Fish teased that the band was planning on releasing a series of releases. Speaking about the releases, Fish stated:

"When we get into the other EPs, it'll give us a chance to maybe get some other people on who are a bit more left-field or a bit more out of the box for our band."

The band's lead vocalist Sykes also stated that they would be releasing four EPs under the "Post Human" name, stating:

"They'll each be totally different with their own sound and mood," he said. "That's one thing we've never really done. There's often been an over-arching theme on our records, but the music has always felt like a collage. That's cool and I like it, but sometimes you want a soundtrack for a certain occasion and emotion."

On 2 November 2020, Fish explained in an interview he got the terminology of the record wrong, because it was not supposed to end up with nine tracks on it, revealing:

"I didn't think it was going to be nine tracks. I guess EP, we probably used the wrong terminology in the first place, I don't think we should have maybe said EP..."
