If I think a harp fits within a certain track, or a saxophone adds texture, I write out the part and blend it all together.

I play keyboard live and play a bit of bass, but my real instrument is a laptop with Pro Tools that I use to write songs and engineer multiple layers of instrumentals, sounds and vocals into something people enjoy listening to. I’m not a musician in the traditional sense of mastering an instrument. How would you describe your role in Bring Me The Horizon? It went from young kids going crazy, to a party vibe and then to a darker place with “Sempiternal”, but “That’s the Spirit” is definitely a bit more euphoric and uplifting.

BMTH music has really been a reflection of where the band was at a given time. We wanted to write an album that reflected what we were listening to, with our own signature. When you get to a certain age, your palette of sound changes in terms of what you like and what you listen to. With both the last two albums – we knew it would be divisive, and we knew we’d lose and gain some people, but the album has really taken off so we all feel good about the direction and our creative choices. All of these influences combine to make the sound what it is.Ībout that progression, what has been the reaction from fans and internally? It’s funny, as a band, we have a pretty unique set of interests and musical talents that includes Metal, Hip Hop, Blues guitar, techno and more. It’s definitely been a progression from death metal and hardcore to a much broader sound with electronic and pop influences. For BMTH, it’s trickier because they had a long history from before I was there.

Who are some artists that have influenced you personally and the band?įor me, it was that wave of new metal from bands like the Deftones, Linkin Park, and Slipknot, but also bands like Radiohead which really got me into a whole new realm of electronic music. Lyrics, hooks, everything was scrutinized because we wanted to produce an album that was stronger than anything we’ve ever done before. Oli has an incredible amount of energy and passion, but it was psychologically draining for both of us because we poured so much of ourselves into getting every song exactly right. We’ve always had artistic freedom to explore different styles of music on our albums and never felt constrained, so it was really about having a strong idea of what we wanted to achieve but not really having a middle man to run things through. You had a big role in producing Bring Me the Horizon’s most recent album, “That’s the Spirit”. After speaking with Karma AV (SVS’s authorized partner for the UK), Fish opted for a pair of SVS Ultra Bookshelf speakers, which now headline the main audio system in his home and impressed him so much, they were used in the production of BMTH’s newest album.įish took some time away from performing and producing to speak with SVS about BMTH’s progression, listening at concert levels and the current state of audio. It also had to present an aura of authority without taking over the room visually.

When Fish decided to upgrade his home audio system, he needed something that was capable of producing crisp, clear audio playback, even when played at live concert sound levels. His music production fingerprints can be found all over “That’s the Spirit”, which offers a stylistic departure from the metalcore genre. Since joining BMTH in 2012, Jordan has been a major influence on the band’s sound inspiring many of the edgy guitar riffs and other elements on the previous album “Sempiternal”. Much like adding new equipment to an audio system can heighten the performance to new levels, bringing new talent into a band can provide a shake-up to inspire creativity. As it has grown, BMTH has undergone a musical progression from its earliest days as a metalcore band, in large part because of the production talents of Jordan Fish.

and Europe, Bring Me The Horizon has been called one of the most forward thinking metal bands in the world.
