Architects share new single and announce new album

November 21, 2024

British Metalcore giants Architects shared their new single “Whiplash” yesterday. True to its name, the track delivers head-spinning intensity, blending heavy instrumentation with stomping rock riffs and furious screams from vocalist Sam Carter. Known for creating massive sonic landscapes, Architects once again bring a brutal, circle-pit anthem with “Whiplash”, featuring one of their catchiest choruses alongside a bone-crushing metalcore breakdown. Architects drummer Dan Searle says: “We’ve long admired director ‘Specter’ for his work with Rammstein so it was a pleasure to bring him in for this song to create something for us. His visual concept gave life to the words in a unique way that may create more questions than answers, but sometimes that’s the beauty in art. “‘Whiplash’ marks the beginning of a new era for Architects. It is a song that speaks of tribalism, of a deepening chasm that lies between human beings based simply on opinions and beliefs. It gave us the opportunity to explore these concepts in a way that we haven’t before and for the first time in a while [Read More]
