Architects release lead single

2016-03-06 by anarchistfish | 42 Comments
Listen to the lead single off metalcore band Architects' upcoming 8th studio album All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us below. Musically, "A Match Made in Heaven" carries on in a similar vein to 2014's Lost Forever // Lost Together, while returning to the politicised lyrics of Daybreaker.




All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us is out 27th May through Epitaph.

It's fine. Doesn't really elicit a reaction from me, but their last album was pretty fun so I'll probably check this. Sounds essentially like everything they've ever made.

Can't say I'm surprised that it sounds exactly the same as the last album. What the hell is up with the 'bleghs' though? He never used to do them.

sounds like pretty much any section could've been copy and pasted to LF//LT. just not a fan of this band anymore, last album that interested me much was daybreaker

It's not groundbreaking, but it's fun and has decent musicianship. I'll probably enjoy the album.

They've been on a decline since Hollow Crown. Out of the albums they've done since then, I prefer Daybreaker, but yeah. They went from being pretty awesome to just okay. This isn't bad at all, but I don't think it comes close to songs like Follow The Water, Early Grave, or anything else on that album.

I TOLD YOU ABOUT THE BLEGH

I want Architects to release a shirt that just says BLEGH on it, maybe with the Architects logo.

For all that is good, start including clean vocals. Everything's beginning to sound copy and paste

One of the few metalcore acts I still take any notice of. Sam's lyrics are always on point but I'm just not sure I can take Daybreaker 3.0. Daybreaker was a return to form, LF/LT was pretty much the same album. I really want them to indulge more in the atmospheric/post-rock side to their sound and incorporate it more often. Those keyboards worked so well on Daybreaker. Song is decent but nothing amazing here.

while returning to the politicised lyrics of Daybreaker.

Last album was full of politics as well. The same ones they'll be screaming about from now till they end their careers. But damn, anti-Iraq war? This is some especially edgy shit.

I've always thought their political lyrics were pretty decent and relevant but I really don't get why they thought we needed an anti Bush/Blair song in 2016?

Also Blegh

It's a bit underwhelming as a lead single isn't it? I wish they'd bring back the catchy tech riffs from Nightmares.

THIS.

Song is better than most of their more recent ones though that chorus has some horrendous vocals.

Yeah the Architects cover of Slipknot wasn't the best thing on that album. Was completely outshone by the covers The Defiled did of BMTH and Hacktivist did of Cypress Hill.

For reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHlocAFFeIo (The Defiled doing BMTH)

For everyone bitching about the lyrical themes, if you actually read the lyrics he's clearly suggesting that the West's involvement (ie Bush and Blair) in Iraq have directly contributed to the creation of everything happening there currently with Islamic State. So no they're not stuck in 2003.
