Bring Me The Horizon drops 'DArkSide' preview from São Paulo concert film

Bring Me The Horizon rolled out the opening seven minutes of their concert film L.I.V.E. In São Paulo this week, giving fans their first real look at the project before its theatrical release.

The Sheffield metal outfit captured their biggest headline performance to date at Brazil's Allianz Parque Stadium, where 50,000 people packed the venue in late 2024. Co-directed by CiRCUS HEaD, the film blends multi-camera angles, drone footage, and audience-submitted clips into what organizers describe as an immersive experience built to recreate the energy of that night.

The movie expands the visual world established across the band's POST HUMAN series, weaving in cinematic sequences and character appearances from E.V.E, Selene, and M8. It covers material spanning from Sempiternal through the Post Human era, drawing on nearly a decade of the band's catalog.

L.I.V.E. In São Paulo hits cinemas worldwide for exactly two screenings: March 25 and 28. Tralgar Releasing coordinated the rollout across more than 35 territories including the UK, US, Germany, France, Italy, Australia, and Brazil, with support from Sony Music Vision and RCA. Tickets went on sale at 2pm GMT.

Frontman Oli Sykes recently discussed the production process in an interview at Reading 2025, emphasizing that the band handled much of the creative work internally rather than relying on outside production companies. "We've done it all ourselves," he explained. "It's me coming up with the ideas, my mate in Australia does all the animation… our crew that are amazing. We all just put our heads together."

Sykes looked to dance music acts as inspiration for the visual concept. "The shows I was looking at when we first put this together were all the dance acts that are doing all the immersive kind of stuff. I went, 'I want a show like that! How the fuck do you do that?! How the fuck do you get the visuals to match the lights and it look like it's coming out of the screen?'"

The band remain focused on touring rather than rushing new material. A Director's Cut version of Post Human: Nex Gen could eventually include 12 additional songs, though Sykes acknowledged that becoming a father of twins has shifted his priorities around music creation. "The music will come, but it's just not the be-all and end-all," he said. "We're realising that we don't have to put another record out; we just put one out. Most bands would go away for two years, have an actual break."

Live dates include the Ascension Program 2 North American tour launching this spring, festival appearances at Rock For People, Nova Rock, Tons Of Rock, and Sick New World, plus a Sziget 2026 headlining slot in Budapest alongside Florence + The Machine, Lewis Capaldi, and Twenty One Pilots.
