Doomsday for Architects

2017-09-06 by MattTD | 47 Comments
Brighton metalcore band Architects have released a new surprise single.

The track, entitled "Doomsday", is the group's first material following the death of guitarist Tom Searle in August last year. The band initially stated that they were unsure if they would continue to release new music without Tom, but have since said that they are working on a new album.




The band's latest studio album All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us was released in May last year.

These guys never cease to impress me. New album will be a tearjerker for sure.

Pretty good, I really liked that main riff. Sam should really mix in more lows into his vocals tho, because he's getting kinda samey

Dan said this won't appear on the album, it's just a standalone single that Tom started writing before his death last year and the rest of the band finished.

Saw these guys at Reading festival a few weeks back. It's been a while since I've really been into their music, but they put on a damn great show.

Well, seeing how it's a b-side it's rather unfair so call them stagnant.

"Maybe now I'm lost I can live"

That part onwards gave me massive goosebumps. Song does sound very similar to Downfall tho so I can see why it's a B-side.

Tom would be damn proud [2]

not sure where you're all getting that it's a B-side. Dan said it'll be on the new album.

In the replies on Twitter he did say that it will be on the new album

yeh Architects just quantized into nu-age metal gods

The riffing style and guitar production actually reminds me a bit of Altered State-era Tesseract

The vocals are just becoming more and more mainstreamer-friendly, which I personally feel takes a bit of the thunder out of the song, but it still hits a solid groove.

Have no issues with the song, pretty much exactly what they've been doing since Daybreaker.

But, and maybe it's just me, I thought having Josh Middleton join up was going to bring some really kickass death metal influences. Can't lie, super disappointed.

Well they were trying to keep it true to the song Tom was trying to write.

I know Josh Middleton from Sylosis was meant to be temporarily filling in for Tom on tour. I see that he is in the video. Anyone know if Josh has now become a permanent guitar player for Architects?

It's a b-side as in it was written for All Our Gods but Tom couldn't finish it before he died. This is what Dan wrote about it on Twitter: Doomsday is not from an album we've recorded. It's just 1 song. It's just the start. Our way of showing everyone that there's still a future.

He then said in the replies to that tweet that this song is gonna be on the new album

Wow Middleton is a full time member? I like Architects but unless Josh has a big influence over the songwriting going forward, his role will be a big waste of his talents.
