Background
On 29 March 2022, Bring Me the Horizon shared a cryptic post onto their TikTok account with the caption "This is the Fallout" while the band were jamming to a snippet of the song in the teaser. Masked Wolf teased on his Instagram page with a glitchy video that would reveal that he would be collaborating with Bring Me the Horizon on a new song called "Fallout" that would be slated to release on 1 April 2022.[4]
Composition
"Fallout" has been described as a nu metal, rap rock and a pop rock song by critics.[5][6] The song runs at 184 BPM and is in the key of D major. It runs for three minutes and 14 seconds.[7] Speaking to Metal Hammer about the collaboration, Masked Wolf explained:
"I haven’t done a collaboration that felt dark; I always felt that my brand had that edge of darkness to it, and I was waiting for the right opportunity to come along. When I heard Fallout, it grabbed me straight away. The way I felt like I was meant to be in the rubble but could still be brought out, that’s the feeling it gave me... To me, it’s perfectly structured and gives me the emotions I love diving deeper into when writing songs."[8]
Music video
The music video for "Fallout" was released onto YouTube on 11 April 2022.[9]
