    I really enjoyed this album. Been Architects fan for a long time and while this record is not on the Hollow Crown or Daybreak or their last 3 records level, I don't mind them switching up their formula, especially if they still make good music and unmistakeably sound like Architects. I'll give it an 8 as well.

    @DeathMachineJoe 3 года назад +4

    Super glad this album turned out the way it did. Architects have become one of my favorite bands since I heard Lost Forever // Lost Together and this album continues that winning streak after the trilogy. I was initially a bit skeptical by the longer tracklist and runtime, but the album has so much to offer that it never feels bloated or tedious to get through. I do kind of agree with you that this album could've maybe been stripped back a song or two, but that's a bit nitpicky of me. Some of my favorites are Discourse Is Dead, An Ordinary Extinction, Goliath and especially Demi God which really surprised me. I also really like Impermanence along with Winston McCall's feature, though I feel he could've had more time in the spotlight. Same with Mike Kerr's feature on Little Wonder. I would've loved to hear him playing bass on that song, giving it more staying power than just a vocal feature.
    In short, For Those That Wish to Exist is another fantastic album from Architects, showing that they can try different things while still remaining themselves. I understand why many fans may not find it to be their thing, but it's FAR from being a sellout, no matter how much they think it is.

    I was quite worried for the album ( i didn't like animals so much and i didn't like meteor at all ), but it was surprisingly good. Not as good as the latest three albums but really good anyway. It had both flaws and merits.
    Flaws:
    1)they tried to be a little too BMTH in this album. Tracks like meteor show it.
    2)they lost that progressive sound that made them unique
    Merits:
    1) Sam using more clean vocals. They sound amazing
    2) more experimental songs ( demi god and dying is absolutely safe are the perfect examples )
    3) industrial and electronic sound, not as good as their progressive side but very good sounding too
    4) the lyrics are always great
    Finally, i give this album an 8,5/10. Very good, more than i had expected, but not even remotely as good as other albums of theirs

    I don’t care what anyone says but the orchestral version of this album is a masterpiece. I feel like the addition of the orchestra makes the album 100x more effective in the sense of foreboding doom. I get goosebumps just talking about that album.

    Great review, Luke. I very much agree with your points that you make in this album review. This is the first album I’ve listened to in full from Architects. I think it’s solid and very enjoyable, enough to a point that I’ll explore the band’s back catalog. For Those That Wish To Exist has everything that I enjoy the most about metalcore - heavy riffs, destructive breakdowns, catchy choruses. The vocals also really stood out as well. Great album. 4/5. Favorite songs: Impermanence, An Ordinary Extinction, Goliath, Libertine, Disclosure Is Dead, Black Lungs, Animals

    I've heard this album twice since it came out and I absolutely love it, to me there's not a single bad song on it, I felt the album flew by on second listen ❤ I think 'Animals' is an awesome song, I don't get some of the hate that it got from fans when it first came out. Guess some people can't accept change 🙄 I don't think Architects can do wrong. I reckon it's going to be one of the best albums of 2021 and on many top ten albums lists. Shame Anthony Fantano aka Needle drop classed the album as not good 😕 But what does he know.
