This album has grown on me massively since first listen, take all comments with a pinch of salt 🫡

[@mckeoncrawford9262]

Noted. This album is fantastic for the feels. Musically, it’s probably going to be a bit cookie cutter for you I’m guessing. Their album directly before this “AOGHAO” is more varied and raw. May be worth checking IF you wanted more of that style from these guys.

[@Spot-t]

Great to hear Drew, any tracks in particular?

[@Bjornsguitarspecials]

I had the same. It grew on me too🤘🏼

[@chipzor]

Understandable! I do agree with others, go back to ANY of their older albums for a better taste of what they brought to the genre.

[@Kenjames10]

Top 3 songs atm?

[@andreimarasigan]

"This sounds like Erra to me" Indeed, Erra draws heavy inspiration from Architects, that's why

[@cheezface94]

Everything you've heard so far has been released after Tom died (Their original guitarist). Go listen to the 2 albums before this and you will see why Architects will always be at the very top

[@cheezface94]

Missing old architects that era was pure gold 😔❤️🔥

[@pawsan69]

Lost Forever//Lost Together and All our Gods are peak Architects IMO, if you are going to listen, i'd start with LF//LT then All our Gods to hear the progression between the albums. Both are masterpieces.

[@ERNVK]

100% Aggree!

[@rottenapple_12]

I think to fully appreciate this album you have to first understand the backstory behind it and be familiar with the previous albums. It’s essentially the bands expression of grief after Toms passing, there is a lot of call backs to ‘All our Gods’ which is essentially Toms musical goodbye.

[@lnhocsignovinces]

Definitely becoming one of my favourite "reactors" mainly due to the honest opinions, although, Architects are one of those bands for me that any bad word against them is like a knife in the heart 😂. I have to ask though, Drew, seeing a lot of your reactions, like where have you been? Living under a rock? You seem to have been snapped away by Thanos for 2 decades and missed loads of music (in this Genre). If that's the case some highlight albums have to be; Hollow Crown by Architects, Horizons by Parkway Drive, Matriarch by Veil of Maya, When the End Began by Silent Planet and VIA by Volumes just name a very tiny few.

[@DrewFortune97]

Thanks man! It’s refreshing to not be shit on for my honest thoughts🤣 If I was to jump on here and pretend to like everything I’d be praised and all of the super fans would come flocking, but what would that even achieve? lol

[@yBazo82]

Accurate

[@idobrom]

Holy Hell is by far their best album imo. 100 out 10

[@pauleta48]

I agree. Pure and genuine rage and sadness.

[@SimplySideStep]

Imo holy Hell and All our gods are on the same level

[@hpviolaguy]

Sam does all the vocals in architects the only times where there is other vocals are on the newest albums so for those that wish to exist and the next one with josh middleton screaming sometimes and adam doing backing but otherwise sam is doing all the screams and the cleans it s just that his voice is more pure I would say on the previous records than on the new ones

[@Greenignitor]

There are some features on previous albums as well like: Youth Wasted On The Young, Outsiders Heart and Even if you win you're still a rat

[@hpviolaguy]

@@Greenignitor Yea true but like it's features from other vocalists of other bands if I am not mistaken but on the all vocals (from the members of the band) Sam did almost everything

[@rhyswebster3614]

Great reaction. The lyrics on this album are really special imo. Lots of emotion and grief can be heard in Sam’s singing after the loss of Tom. I really enjoy the use of “Hope is a prison” on the track Damnation as this is a throwback and tie into Gone With the Wind from AOGHAU. Lots of talk about his process of dealing with cancer. Keep up the great videos. Hope you do a reaction to AOGHAU.

[@sebastianschmohl6494]

I felt similar when the album came out but it grew on me over time, still I felt like it was a bit lackluster in comparison to their previous album "All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us" which to this day is my all time favorite. To be fair it was their first attempt at writing music after their songwriter and guitarist passed away... RIP Tom Searle... and keeping that in my mind I thought it was a great album. Hope you give Tom Searles Legacy a.k.a. "All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us" & "Lost Forever // Lost Together" a listen because damn was he a phenomenal songwriter in any aspect of his work... lyrics as well as instrumentals

[@samubmth7316]

you need to check out all our gods have abandoned us, their best album by far

[@kraken2017]

You NEED to listen to Lost Forever//Lost Together. Truly a masterpiece

[@naamanvasquez8226]

I believe this album was a great introduction (at least to me) to the metal genre; been meaning to discover and widen my music taste and my friend shared this album and I was blown away by how much I liked. Artwork at its finest.

[@frenzygang]

Looking back to your older videos and seeing you now is pretty awesome how far you've come

[@johnwolfhooker4992]

It's funny, I'm watching this right now, you're in the Holy Hell song reaction and you instantly thought it's the best of the songs till that time stamp. What's funny is that song and Doomsday were the last ones and the only ones on the album that were written by Tom before he died. I don't comment on yt at all, but I watch your journey as you find out about all these metalcore/djent/thall albums and it's really fun. Lost forever//Lost together and All Our Gods have abandoned us are the albums that shaped modern metalcore. The Holy Hell album seems like something you've heard before. If you listen to the other two that I mentioned, it will probably seem like that too(or may not). My point being that Architects leaned themselves into the atmospheric metalcore spectrum before all these bands. I personally haven't heard of a metalcore band after Lost Forever//Lost together that didn't incorporate these "technical tapping open note riffs" or the atmospheric backgrounds. Northlane(they named their band of the Architects song North Lane, that's how they started), Polaris, Currents, Erra, Wage War etc. Not to say there is not evolution, in these bands, everyone progresses, but what I'm stating is that the more you dig into their previous albums, the more you'll find a samey sound. Tom was an incredibly unique guitar player for me, I would blast his two last albums and then one day I hear the news. I mention this to justify the weight of the lyrics. If you listen to all our gods, you'll face a whole bunch of dark themes and that's because they come from a man that deals with cancer. Shit I almost wrote an essay, I just got emotional because you reminded me the first time I listened to Architects about 10 years ago in high school. Rock on! Edit: That's why Doomsday feels repetitive haha, Tom wrote the riff and he died before turning it into a song.

[@JonaKebab]

YES! Now this, I have been waiting for. ❤

[@Crotes1990]

Fun fact, the title track (Holy Hell) + Damnation were mostly written by Tom (their olf guitarist that died in 2016, rip), the rest of the album is mostly written by Josh + Dan (with some snippets of Tom riffs)

[@Kenjames10]

Didn't know that! Well that explains why "Holy Hell" still managed to be great...

[@Bajannez]

Holy Hell and Seventh Circle were the two finished as instrumentals before Tom died (and you can really tell from thier ferocity imo). And parts of Doomsday.

[@allosanthrwpos542]

God I love this album from start to finish ! So emotional !

[@d1g1talbath]

IMO "All our Gods" is one of the Top 3 albums of the genre. Absolute Masterpiece.

[@aidanmaley8905]

Loved your reaction yet again man!! Thank you for doing this ❤👏

[@elitefirebox6724]

You gotta listen to All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us, and Lost Forever//Lost Together by Architects. Those 2 albums set the blueprints for what Modern Metalcore would end up being. Please take a listen to those 2 albums

[@Greenignitor]

Never really got into Holy Hell but All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us is one of my favorite albums of all time and LF//LT is right next to it

[@alexz1lla307]

I found this band last year, immediately got hooked on most of their songs. 🤟🏼 It’s okay to not like every single track. I’m glad you’re always honest about your opinion of the songs! One can’t love everything. Great reaction anyways! Hope you’ll have a great rest of the day! 🥰

[@esdrasvidalpereira6688]

Loved to see your perspective on this one. It's interesting to see the comparisons with Erra because Architects (alongside BMTH, which is fitting since Sam and Ollie are BFFs) influenced a lot of the 2010's metalcore scene. But that aside, I think this album is very contextual because it came out after the passing of their guitarist Tom Searle. So this had a huge impact on their sound, approaching it in a more emotional way than previous records (not that they haven't done that before, but it's way more noticeable here), and it is also a culmination of the two past albums before moving on to a new sound. I would recommend checking out "Lost Forever//Lost Together" and "All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us", which I think are their best albums to date.

[@Wojtek3522PL]

This album is my favourite album of all time. Every song blows me away and give me goosebumps and brings a tear to my eye. Even to this day in 2023

[@gundamfans45]

Why does "Fuck this self pity" in holy hell hit like a fucking meteor.

[@Kenjames10]

This is a great album though not their best which says a lot. It just has no bad songs in it. For me 8.5/10. This was their first album after their main guitarist and song writer Tom Searle sadly passed away. Their music haven't been as techincal or complex since. That being said you should definately check out "Lost Forever//Lost Together" which is one of/if not the best metalcore album ever. "All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us" is just as good.

[@AingebildetS55]

I would be really interested in seeing your opinion on Breakdown of Sanity - Perception, Coexistence or Mirrors album 😁

[@Kenjames10]

They are absolutely filthy albums. The amount of times Drew would drop to the floor not remembering his headphones are plugged in would be absolutely insane...

[@CruciaLou]

Also Doomsday is a song you have to FEEL. It’s basically a send off to their guitarist who passed away from cancer.

[@8JFJK8]

Never liked that song. Could never understand the hype about it. Super mid track. Cant believe it has that many views.

And on top of this i saw them live in chicago a week after i graduated high school with my brother and best friend. I will never forget that

[@RenalDistress]

I didn't see the poll, but I'm genuinely surprised that All Our God's Have Abandoned Us wasn't chosen. Holy Hell is the bands artistic expression of their emotions following Tom's passing, but AOGHAU was written primarily by Tom during his darkest moments prior to his passing. Gone With The Wind is an incredibly heartbreaking song

[@Sobek15]

24:41 always loved this part of the album

[@sirdo946]

As you said, but to expand, Architects basically spawned this whole djent-core wave (tapping/technical melodic riffs with chugs in-between) between Daybreaker (2012) and Lost Forever Lost Together (2014), mostly with the latter. They're pretty much the forefathers, or rather Tom is the forefather, of that riffing style which is now used by Erra, Invent Animate, Spiritbox in the more complex tracks and A LOT of other modern metalcore bands. In fact, this sub-style of metalcore is called Architects-core by some people and it has spread itself so much that there definitely are some boring examples of it being used with a distinct lack of creativity. Main song that comes to mind for me is Low by Wage War which sounds very similar to Doomsday from this album (the main riff) Edit: yes, ambientalism is a huge topic for them. One of their best songs imo is Colony Collapse which is about the Fukushima disaster (i mean i'm pro-nuclear but it's a great song lol). Also Deathwish is clearly about global warming.

[@nathanoconnell6348]

Spot on - needs pinned!

[@xeqtioner0660]

I mean, Erra dropped Impulse in 2011, so to call Architects the forefathers of the genre is a real stretch.

[@sirdo946]

@@xeqtioner0660 i wouldn't call Impulse modern metalcore or Architects-core though. It was more in the vein of "classic" djent with the distinct (constant) chugs, also used by bands like After The Burial, Northlane pre-Singularity, The Contortionist pre-Language, Structures and most likely some others which i can't think of rn. It was almost more influenced by math rock than djent. Architects kind of streamlined and simplified certain elements creating a more accessible but creative (and still somewhat technical) sound that was then copied by, like, half the scene

[@BabyBatPlays]

many lyrics in this album call back to their past albums, this was the first album after tom died and he was their lyricist as well

[@callumw5772]

Gone but never forgotten RIP Tom

This album is fantastic and I love, however, like the rest of the comments say: All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us is a masterpiece. Now that you have some context with newer Architects like For Those That Wish To Exist, and this album Holy Hell which kinda began the transition to the newer sound but still has lots of the old elements in it, you need to listen to #1 with All Our Gods. Based off your preferences having watched a few of your album reactions, you probably wont like anything like Hollow Crown or earlier.

[@renasmatevicius1012]

I think architects are kings of writing lyrics into the song and the feelings of it, maybe that's what they are missing in their newest music

[@advanced_darkness6509]

The thing is you have been spoiled because pretty much bands like thorn hill Currents erra ect have gotten ideas of there sound of architects. But I would suggest go back through catalog and you see how they have influenced the metal scene.

[@sirdo946]

Yeah exactly. I was lucky enough to get into Architects in early 2017 which is basically when the style ("Architects-core") was just starting to really gain traction, so i managed to live both eras lol. LFLT and AOGHAU are incredible, but so are albums like TDP (i love Heroine as well but it's not Architects-influenced) and TPIFS

[@nathanoconnell6348]

I agree. Architects are the gateway/foundation and the newer bands have really honed the sound and took it to new places. I used to be a massive architects fan but don’t listen as much anymore - not because of their direction since Holy Hell, but because the newer bands are going to new heights with their instrumentation. It's also why I don't agree with the people who think architects fell off and "should make albums exactly like the old ones", it was the right career choice to go more mainstream because they'd not be able to make metalcore albums as good as the new kids on the block. They've had their golden era in which they made groundbreaking albums that helped paved the way!

[@BabyBatPlays]

[@simonhitt5791]

This is probably just my perspective so take it with a grain of salt. While I enjoy the fuck out Sam's voice and all the catchy riffs, that's not Architects main draw for me. I was just getting sober when i first heard Doomsday and the lyrics and delivery absolutely blew me away so i dug in deeper and this album in particular, for me, lyrically is a masterpiece. The overarching themes of grief, loss, soul searching, "one foot in front of the other" mentality just touch me in my soul. Several of their lyrics have brought me to tears multiple times "the embers still glow when I'm sober, the gold in the flames burn brighter now" that's some real shit and a perspective i would have just glossed over prior to sobriety. I'm probably ascribing meaning to the songs that just narratively fit for me but i guess that's the beauty of music lol not that it matters but Hereafter, Holy Hell, Death is not Defeat, Doomsday, Mortal After All, and Wasted Hymn for me are top tier Architects. I enjoyed the review 🤙

All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us is my favourite album of theirs but this one comes a close 2nd. I wish they were still making music like this, not a fan of the current basic riffs and radio rock.

Modern architects definitely sounds way more plain from the perspective of someone who has listened to them for a long time which is why it doesnt resonate with us as much.
