| Architects The Here and Now | 2.5 |
| Every Architects album release sounds different than the ones that came before it and "The Here and Now" ris no exception. The lyrics and vocals are still very heartfelt but the band's sound has lost a lot of the renergy shown on their previous release, "Hollow Crown." It's true the album is a grower but up to the bands rusual standards, it's rather disappointing. |
