Transcript

00:00Hi, I'm Andrew Trendle, you're watching NME.

00:08We're here at Glastonbury 2024 with Aurora.

00:11Me.

00:12How are you doing, Aurora?

00:13I'm doing so good.

00:14How are you?

00:15I'm good.

00:16What has happened since the last time we spoke, because I didn't know, you're going to make

00:18a song with Bring Me the Horizon.

00:19Oh yeah, I did, didn't I?

00:22Yeah, limousine, awesome song.

00:23You've all heard it.

00:24Yeah, and if not.

00:26But I think you told me once before that you're a huge Bring Me fan and you love metal.

00:30What did it mean to have that come together?

00:31Well, I'm a very big metal fan and I heard Bring Me the Horizon when I was a youth, we

00:40call it in Norwegian, like a teenager, and they were with me for some time.

00:49I was introduced to them by a lover, my first lover, who actually died, it's sad, but it's

00:59beautiful as well, because now when I listen to them and now when I made a song with them,

01:03I know that he would be just amazed.

01:06So it felt very full circle in the journey of grief.

01:12And then all he slipped into your DMs and you apparently was like, fuck yeah.

01:15Yes.

01:16We bonded through Palestine, because I was like, we need to stick up for them.

01:20And he was like, yeah, we do.

01:21It's true.

01:22And then he was like, do you want to make a song?

01:23I was like, yes.

01:25Is it a sign of things to come?

01:26Because there's some gnarly songs on your album too.

01:29Can you make a metal record, do you think?

01:30Yeah, I think so.

01:31I think my heart won't be complete without.

01:33So yeah, definitely.

01:34I really want to do it because I just love it so much.

01:38It's such a force, like a wave, a deadly wave coming at you.

01:45Death metal wave.

01:46Yeah, which is so cool.

01:47So I will, I have to, for my Norwegian ancestors, until now I've been purely a disappointment

01:54to them.

01:55Sorry guys.

01:56Yeah, finally I will make them proud.
