U.K. rockers unveil latest exploration of all-consuming love in support of 'Amo'

Bring Me the Horizon have had a pretty rad 2019 so far. Their latest album Amo has helped move them out of the world of hard rock and metalcore and into a new state of straight-up pop, and the band seems to love it. In the lead up to the record, the band has shared some pretty great videos highlighting singles as well, from the cult-tastically beautiful "Mantra" to the weird video art of "Medicine." 

Today, May 9th, they've released a new visual for one of the album's most thoroughly pop cuts, "Mother Tongue." The video cuts back and forth between two sections, one of the entire band playing in a completely black space, and one of an inter-dimensional love story.

That love story starts with a woman wandering out of a grocery store and into an apartment complex. She meets a man and hands him a book titled Supernova, and a ring on her necklace begins to move. Once inside the apartment, she tries to get closer, but it seems as though some kind of psychic power starts to violently move everything around them. They eventually calm down and settle in to the chaos ... and become encased in some kind of jelly-looking primordial ooze as they embrace in the air. Oh, and Oli and the rest of the band start floating too. Wild shit.
