Where did ur mustache go?

[@djentyman4002]

It’s not astounding. When you look at their whole catalog this is probably the weakest song they put out. It’s just lazy and bland.

Alex you should react to their whole album "Holy Hell." In my opinion one of the best albums of the past decade and I think it's exactly what you would love

[@omegazx7236]

Best metalcore album ever imo

[@Joeydxn97]

Maybe I'm overreacting, but have any of you guys listened to their albums pre All Our Gods?

[@hihhuli1000]

@@sarcasm4371 Well I can't speak for others but I have. They are great but in my opinion Architects have developed their sound on all their records and for me Holy Hell is the perfect evolution of their sound. Daybreaker is an amazing album but Holy Hell has that emotional kick that puts it above the rest

Alex: stops the music to add the song to the playlist Me: "I've literally done the same 30 seconds ago!"

It's VERY rare that someone introduces me to a song or band that I haven't heard before. Architects.... AMAZING! That is why my son and I bought a shirt from you. Stay positive. You are helping more people than you will ever know.

[@Max-es3xk]

damn everyone is reacting to this song rn. Its one of my favourite songs atm its great

[@TheOnlyRealJohnson]

Check out "Holy Hell"!!!!!

[@ParnellJustin10]

You need to check out other songs like: Nihilist, Doomsday, These Colours Don’t Run, Gone With The Wind, Hereafter.. the list goes on man. This band is incredible. Make sure to look into the lyrics on them, too.

[@SlimGravy2K]

This is soooo different to their usual stuff, theres no BLEGH that they're renowned for. Sam doesn't let out one scream, and for veteran Architect fans like myself at first that was weird. But after listening to this a few times it is absolutely stunning. They've made it work even if it sounds like 2016 Bring me The Horizon

[@juneauz]

"All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us" is the greatest metalcore album of all time, give it a listen.

[@BabyBatPlays]

i love everything architects has ever done, listen to their old shit like the here and now and daybreaker, it's a lot different

[@bazkeen]

That's exactly what happened to me earlier today. Spilt my coffee when it came in🤣🤣🤣

[@filipepinto5966]

this instrumental is just out of this world, and his singing is just incredible

[@010Richard010]

"Satellites" by Periphery

[@CrappycrapCrappy]

I love this route they're going! Always nice when bands branch out of their style

[@fanzarelli1319]

Exactly, everyone of their albums has been a different style so no one should be surprised by that. Especially because that seems to be the trend with metalcore bands right now.

[@maoraharon21]

@@fanzarelli1319 I like architects but their past albums since daybreaker have a similar style. they just kept on refining it. Not sure from where you're getting that every album of theirs has a different style.

[@fanzarelli1319]

@@maoraharon21 from nightmares to daybreak they add totally different elements to each album. Yes less raw and more defined with each album. but each album has had a different sound. Daybraker slows it down a lot and adds a lot more melodic ambient experimental elements that you don't hear as much in lost forever lost together. They've always been them but there style has changed over the years. And now they lost there guitarist and main song writer so people shouldn't be surprised if they go in a different direction now. I like animals I just hope the rest of the album has some screaming and break downs.

TEN DAYS UNTIL HALLOWEEN, ALEX, WHERE'S THE REST OF THE ICE NINE KILLS.

[@mort4u]

The chorus reminds me of early Linkin Park songs. Also my fav song atm.

[@NoobMicesters]

After watching lots of Alex's reactions to metal I have realized his favourite genre is Metalcore songs that utilize industrial elements

[@rlfdavin]

that is exactly my genre I love. hit me with anymore examples you can think of.

[@NoobMicesters]

@@rlfdavin to be fair metal os such a bloated genre now it's hard to find songs even in sub genres because these sub genres are also bloated and have their sub genres inside them. I'm also going to admit I'm not the most diverse music listener. You could try some of Motionless in whites songs (there new stuff is more electronic and if you go too far back then they're a bit samey. Graveyard shift, reincarnate and disguise are good albums (although motionless in white are an acquired taste some love it some hate it) I'm afraid as I said before I'm not the best for finding songs. But have a look around. Just be careful because industrial metal is an entirely different breed and not what this is. This is a metal core song with hints of industrial in it. Edit: to add motionless in white (those albums anyway) are metal core with industrial and gothic elements not just industrial

[@theseanie9958]

it's great seeing how much you love this song as someone who doesn't know much about architects. makes me think that this song really could drive new fans to the band, as it is much more approachable to people unfamiliar with the band compared to their typical music.

Architects never disappoint, they are amazing, half of the time in this video they could have easily just shown the lead singer doing a head bop they opted to go with the cool guy with red smoke things....its that extra detail that I love them for, it could be simpler, but no, they go all out.

[@d1st0rt037]

Hey ALEX you definitely need to react to the band ISSUES!! They are a really great post-hardcore band and I think you'll love them !!

[@maksschmidt]

I’m so bummed about Issues. Beautiful Oblivion was in my top 3 albums last year, behind Sleeptalk and P4. If Tyler did what he was accused of he obviously needed to go, but I feel like they jumped on kicking him as soon as that guy tweeted his accusations. I’m sure the story runs deeper, and they have more info than what is publicly available. It’s just fucking sad because they literally struck the perfect blend of heavy instrumentals with poppy elements but without sounding generic.

[@bornindissonance]

Architects used to be my number one band couple years back, I loved this so much! Repetitive you say? Yes, but when its crazy good like this I don't even care
