Delve into a world of discovery with us for a second...
Today we discovered a brand new collaboration featuring Bring Me The Horizon's Oli Sykes and we are baffled by the tangled web of secrecy that surrounds the artist dropping the heavy thumping hit.
CORPSE (also known as Corpse Husband) is an anonymous online internet sensation, who rose to fame on YouTube, pulling in millions of followers in the process (across multiple accounts) since starting out wayyyy back in 2015; but they made bigger waves around the hype following the release of online "guess-who" game Among Us in 2020. CORPSE's notoriety came about narrating horror stories that without a doubt would creep out the kids and Zoomers of today, keeping them coming back for more.
According to Dexerto, CORPSE's distinctive deep voice and unknown identity resulted in them becoming one of the most recognisable names in the streaming world and as attention grew bigger as time went by, CORPSE started dabbling in other forms of media. In 2021, Machine Gun Kelly released a song titled 'DAYWALKER!' which featured CORPSE's distinctive deep vocals throughout, and in October last year Scarlxrd jumped on his track 'LIKE YXU WXULD KNXW'. Now two years later, Oli Sykes has expressed interest and landed on 'CODE MISTAKE'.

Phat electronic beats draw us in alongside those deep dulcet tones before leading up to the chorus where the screams begin. Following this Sykes jumps in with his own verse as the pair tip-toe between each other with a stellar back and forth that'll raise a few eyebrows in the process. For a previously 'unknown to Wall of Sound' artist, this track is killer and if it didn't have the drawcard of Bring Me The Horizon's namesake, we'd probably have missed it. But you can definitely hear some influences with some of BMTH's recent electronic heavy undertones on their music.
Give it a spin and prepare to dive down the rabbit hole of the creepy world of CORPSE!
