Thoughts? Drop them in the comments I want to hear them!🫡
I love Bring Me the Horizon's Amo album because it was great to hear them having fun for once. I feel the same way about this album.
Dude, this is not going to be once i guess ;-;
@@Vixfor_ I wouldn't mind if they kept up this style for a while. I like electronic rock and I think Architects do a great job of it.
Except Amo was varied... and, good.
I really like Amo
you rlly be putting this in the same level as amo
Personally give the album a 7/10, really love it, the last song goes so hard, I love old architects but for me the last 2 albums for some reason have really resonated with me, just love big choruses haha!
Metalcore bands tend to sound like different variants of whatever band had success the previous year. Outside of a handful of interesting records, you'll mostly never encounter anything of originality or ambition. This new sound isn't a massive breakthrough but it's definitely a step in the right direction imo. I'm glad a band like Architects are willing to break out of their formulas and take their sound into a new stylistic direction fully aware of the reaction it would recieve.
I like it, It's different for sure I do think there's room for adding more unique and interesting elements to the songs as some tracks definitely feel a lot more straight forward than you'd expect from Architects and I don't just mean I want them heavier. Imo Be Very Afraid, Burn Down My House, New Moral Low Ground and Deep Fake are the standouts. Doomscrolling is actually growing on me just cause I think It's catchy AF. I'm looking forward to seeing them in Dublin next month with Biffy. 7.5/10 from me for the album. Great reaction man! I do think you should give the record a couple repeat listens I think it will grow on you a bit.
AS I LAY DYING - SHAPED BY FIRE!!! more of an original metalcore sound and I love it. you won't be disappointed.
You need to listen to Architects - Lost Forever // Lost Together. One of their classic albums, super sick.
Damn living is killing us for me is a highlight on the album, that lead riff at the start goes hard
when we were young went so much harder live
HUGE FAX I got to see the first ever performance of it, and while I never really liked the song beforehand, it was for sure a massive highlight of the gig. stellar stuff.
Bands evolve and change their sound as well as experiment. Keep an open mind. Repeating a style will get repetitive and will at some point get stale. So they have fun experimenting but it's all in everyone's taste.
This album just feels like they are trying to do what BMTH has done yeaaarsss ago.
I don't think they are trying to do what any band is doing in particular. They started writing this album right after they finished FTTWTE, to me it feels like the last two albums have just been Architects writing and trying a bunch of stuff and finding their new sound. When you listen to what they've said in interviews I think that's probably it. I've heard a bunch of cool ideas on a the last two albums but alot of meh stuff too. What I'm really excited for is what they release in a couple of years after they've toured these albums. I expect we will get something alot better, with more direction, and it will feel like they've found their sound. But thats just speculation
This might be my second favorite album after holy hell I loved all but 2 tracks
Honestly i didn't like this album at all, haha. I just find nothing special about it personally for me. Too mainstream sounding and boring, but it could be just me, some tracks were fine but overall not a fan :)
For Those That Wish to Exist I think is better tbh. I actually heavily disagree that that album is not cohesive. I really dont why you'd have that thought, feels plently complete and cohesive to me. This new album actually feels way more like a collection of singles to me, and this feels less authentic. Stuff like Dead Butterflies had emotional weight to it, this album has When We Were Young which is the most cliche title to a metal/rock song I ever heard. I'm convinced that this album was made just to cash in on their impressionable fans and is lacking soul, and authenticity.
I was sitting here prepared to hate every single song, but at least I enjoyed a few of the songs. If they can mix it up more and make it heavier I think they could totally pull this style change off. They could also use a new approach to their lyrics because those lyrics are a bit too generic and kind of cringe at times.
They can do it better I'm sure
You should really check out their first few albums, especially Hollow Crown. They used to be a super heavy mathcore band that were creating music influenced by The Dillinger Escape Plan
Considering that FTWWTE was probably my favourite album of theirs, I was coming into this albums fully open minded because I ready do enjoy their new stuff. But there were quite a few misses on this album.. Although, I will say there were a handful of bangers that will go on my playlist.
Don't know if it's been mentioned, but maybe giving older Make Them Suffer would be worth a chance. Love them still, but nothing beats something like Neverbloom to this day. 🤔
i understand what you mean. i think the sound sounds like a lot of different successful bands. i miss something of the own note with this album. nevertheless, i'm looking forward to the architects concert with us!
lost forever / lost together and all our gods have been two of my favourite metalcore releases of all time. Cuz of those two i wouldve considered myself an architects fan. I did not like FTTWTE and i thought that wouldve been their low point . But holy shit was i wrong. This album is boring , its not entertaining at all. Why does a band need to justify themselves on social media? Now i know why. This album is utter trash. 0/10 . So, done with the rant. Love your videos , drew ;) Keep up the excellent work!!!!
I didn't necessarily hate this album, but I found it pretty boring save for "be very afraid" and the singles
everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but remember that it's just your opinion
@@MDLuFFy19 of course
@@lost_fiction I wouldn't consider you as an Architects fan, if "Lost Forever / Lost tonight" is one of your favourite albums from them...
@@vfl-yz8ku we just talked opinions man
Es un excelente album, el problema es que muchos lo comparan con sus anteriores trabajos cuando nisiquiera son del mismo genero
I like burn down my house because it's the most unique sounding song on the album. Itll fit in a playlist nicely. The rest, meh. Heard it before. The ending of the like being "Revelations on it's way." is chilling though
Hey Drew if u want a great Metalcore album with insane breakdowns and choruses you should do Divination by In Hearts Wake. The cleans in Divination album actually remind me of Chester too!!!
I actually ended up really liking FTTWTE as a whole but this album did not hit the mark for me. Two of the tracks clicked with me but after 5 listens through the album I thought more of them would. Glad other fans are digging it though!
I think Is not bad album but, always gonna pick All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us and Lost F/ Lost T/ Daybreaker, the Best fucking albums
Ehhh.... I mean to be fair, they did release an album just last year, so to put out an entire new one the next year later is impressive. That's the ONLY redeeming factor for me, because otherwise this is just very mediocre.
Personally my problem with this album, as is a lot of people’s, is the fact all the songs kind of blend together. Nothing here is ‘bad’, and the songs individually are great, but as an album it’s very repetitive, with the singles and Be Very Afraid being the obvious high points. Overall for me it’s a 7/10, a meh. Nothing offensive, just nothing great.
after 8 metalcore albums, I'm sure you would want to experiment as well. Personally, I'm starting to find metalcore very boring. Just the same song and dance. This has depth. Undertones. Intricate details behind the relatively simple structures. I personally really enjoyed this album and ordered the vinyl. Burn down my house, be very afraid, and the singles are my personal favorites, but the other songs are still pretty good. I find it best to treat this band as if they only started with holy hell as it's more fair to the current lineup. 7.5/10
I'm glad to see I'm not the only person who likes this album.
@@hannahb6411 Same. On the contrary, if they would put out another album like Holy Hell or what people would complain that it's all the same.
It's honestly hilarious all these comments of people not liking them anymore.... it's like they NEED to let the entire world know that they don't like Architects anymore. No one is forcing them to listen to their new music.... go listen to their old albums if you like them better! Problem solved 😆
"This has depth. Undertones. Intricate details behind the relatively simple structures."
Nice bait man, almost got me
@Andrej Pitko if you look past the song structures and open up your ears then yeah it does. You can hear all the post pro and synths and stuff. Metalcore is so dry now. This is just as repetitive but in a more enjoyable way
Last song was the only song I remembered. A shame for what this band has been.
Not a shame for me. I like their last few albums.
@@jsilverchannel yeah this is the first album I don’t like since before 2014. 2014/2016 amazing, 2018 really solid, 2021 good
Okay you need to listen to the album "Cannibal" by Bury Tomorrow. It came out on 2020.....I know your tastes and trust me man! You're not gonna regret it.🤘
Edit: And the album "Radiant Dark" by If I Were You.....its up there with the album " the way it ends" imo.
I feel like its an oke album 5,5/10
Yeah it wasn't terrible, def the worst of their catalogue
If more songs were like Be Very Afraid/ Deep Fake this could've been actually a pretty great album. But they missed the ball. IMO this is a 6/10 album, I prefer FTTWTE in every way.
Instead of this stadium heavy rock style, they should've went thall direction imo. Idk it just feels like Linkin Park and BMTH now.
I can't say if it is good or not. Only thing I know for sure, is that I was bored like hell on the 5th song already. It seems that all songs are on the same ground. the tone, the guitar, the lyrics. Nothing that really stands out. It doesn't fit Sam voice as far as i'm concerned.
I mean, I was a massive Architects fan since Hollow Crown. Their writing, both instruments wise and lyrics wise, was absolutely flawless for me. Tom wrote about so meaningful themes, politics or philosophical. Now it really seems like a teenage pop rock band. Just look at the past two albums : "I feel like I'm drowning in water", "I swear i'm okay", "let's all be very afraid" and so on. Nothing really deep, apart from one line here and there.
Just read any lyrics from Holy Hell or All our gods or Lost forever lost together. This album can't compete even a little. Same as for the riffs : nothing is even remotely on the level of Hereafter or Gravedigger.
I get you want to experiment something else. And I love when band do that. Bad Omens, Falling in Reverse, I Prevail. Good for them and they nailed it. Architects ? They don't put two and two together. Their mathcore was on another level. Even last album, song like Animals, it was the way to go. Vocally, as I said, Sam don't hit home. Noah from Bad Omens or Ronnie from FIR are made for the music the band produce.
I get it, Sam is drown in nihilism. He can't stand the state the world is in. He hates his past, his blegh, and he hates the people that don't think like him. He loves to post shitty stuff on Instagram about being leftist (something along the line "you can't be on the metal scene and lean right"). Architects lost itself for me and went all mad about everything. Too much resentment in Sam's life.
Tom last couple of songs from Holy Hell was about redemption and finding the way. He wrote about hope being a prison previously, and that line had me chilling everytime after his death. He then wrote "If hope is a prison, then maybe faith will set me free ?" He helped me so much to see what's good in life. It really was a cure. Because his lyrics spoke in a way that reach my unconscious.
Any way, tha'ts just the way I see things. People will find the lyrics are deep or that the instruments are insane. Good for you !
Sad to see a good band sink into the abyss of nihilism. Album should have been called The Classic Symptoms of Nihilism. Architects should put themselves together and stop beeing whiny like teenagers. This album lacks maturity for a band that has been around for almost 20 years.
As far as i'm concerned, that just leaves room for other band to take Architects place (Currents for number one !). Everything has to end, i'm not even sad or mad. That's life. And I've done my grieving.
Let's just be happy for what comes next from other bands !
This guy listened to this album before AOGHAU and LFLT, he doesn't have a clue
Thought it was pretty good nothing outstanding but it isnt complete shit just very mid
Почему эволюция группы должна двигаться в сторону облегчения звука?
I'll write in English because i don't know Russian, if I understood correctly...well they tend to lose their heaviness because they aren't angry teenager anymore, and as they stated on Instagram (and other socials too I presume) they are trying to showcase their emotions (even anger) by not just screaming like they have been doing, but trying to express it in a more artistic way I guess(?). Also, they are people, not machines, I think everyone gets tired of doing the same thing/genre for 20 years straight.
@@simonedimaso heavy riffs was too very teen. Just listened old stuff: so much fun🥹
Наверное потому, что: а) группа пробует для себя что-то новое? б) никто не в праве требовать/указывать им, что играть?
Please check out Spirits by Nothing More, it’s so much better than this.
Bruh I can't believe you keep listening to these mid Architects albums, but you REFUSE to listen to Lost Forever // Lost Together by the same band....
Who’s refusing?🤣🤣 just give me time man
@@DrewFortune97 The people are waiting Drew!
Honestly a very weak offering from these guys. Lost Together // Lost Forever had incredible melodies and lyrics. This just seems very mainstream, forgettable and predictable melodies. Not a fan at all really.
Probably the most boring album i've heard in a very long time. I'm all for bands changing their sound, i loved BMTH and Thornhill's new sounds but this is just a massive downgrade for Architects
Hated it. Terrible album.
Listen to a real Architects album for once for fuck sake. 😂
This shit isn't even true Architects they should've changed their name once Tom (their sole songwriter) died.
Listen their top 2 albums Lost Forever / Lost Together and All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us for some true Architects.
If they made another one like those, IL pull my hair out
@@junaidmoody8342 They cant Toms dead
@@Justin-nq6kf its not only the riffs,Sam's vocals were different back then,they were more raw and his cleans were different
@@junaidmoody8342 Yes his vocals have changed but its mostly the music side of things.
I understand not liking the record but do you realize how entitled and snobby you sound?
