Architects vocalist Sam Carter reacts to Lambgoat comments

[@anacarolinab.435]

Sam's laugh = priceless 🖤

[@RandomApexLootbox]

He's laughing but I am pretty sure these comments still hurt, even if you don't notice immediately when reading them. That's why I am no fan of these "celebrities read mean tweets" unless they're comically absurd, so people can have a genuine laugh.

[@micky_jd]

i dont know, im northern and everyday life is being ripped to shreds by your best friend so its very difficult to genuinely be offended by comments from strangers

[@JR-90]

That’s why the majority of bands don’t even pay attention to their social media. They usually just hire someone to run things for them. David Draiman from Disturbed doesn’t even have social media for this particular reason. Regardless of what you do, there’s always gonna be someone to talk sh*t, which is why you should just focus on yourself and what you’re doing.

[@HunterForsberg]

I get people don’t like a band or don’t like new direction, but JESUS FUCK. 🤣

[@Rewwin_locken]

that "Fuck you where's your band?" got me good. lol

[@misfitmaik6213]

I would love a rockers read mean tweets sort of thing

[@davestarks600]

That should absolutely become a series lol.

[@evanbarker1173]

Love Architects, you guys have been a huge part of my life since Hollow Crown. When Tom passed I felt like I lost a family member. Fuck the toxicity of social media...real fans still enjoy the new music. And real fans understand Tom is gone and you guys evolved your sound. Keep doing what you're doing fellas. 👌 much love

[@brogren802]

Fuck yeah to everything you said

[@Rob_Cary]

Sam Carter's singing is literally the ONLY thing you CAN'T criticize about the band today. His scream singing abilities are unreal. There are sooooo many things you could say that are valid in criticisms to where this band ended up going and the first guy goes after the singing??

[@PM-vv3uc]

There are several more things you actually CAN criticize.

[@chalksmiles4036]

Really don't get the hate tbh. Their old stuff is still there. I'd rather them experiment and create music they want to create than rehash the old days half heartedly because some angry guy in their bedroom spaffs his opinion all over the internet

[@wolfkane1986]

I mean direction they are going is gonna be pop.

[@patrickreinhardt7674]

​@@wolfkane1986 If you think the songs they've been putting out recently are anything like modern pop you haven't been listening to much pop lol. I feel like the default reaction for metalcore fans when a band moves away from their "traditional" sound is to just call it pop, when that's rarely actually true

[@lionsatmidnight]

These people typically like all screaming music anyways. So when they hear cleans, they cringe. It’s involuntary for them and a great laugh for us! 😂

"our second rercord" Nightmares: "am I a joke to you?"

[@Steve-rf3be]

Absolutely brilliant Sam ! Keep doing what you’re doing guys and the success will keep on coming . See you on the Biffy Tour next month

[@WhereOceansMeeet]

I still have great respect for the band. I still listen to their discography from Hollow Crown to Holy Hell all of the time. So while I don't like their newer music, to say they suck would be an egregious misnomer. Most musicians change over time and while we won't all go with them on their new journey, I still have great respect for what they have accomplished over the years and there's no point in taking futile potshots at them simply because they're doing something new.

[@keithobrien7083]

Great band..fuck the haters..

[@louistremblay1218]

The internet ia fucking brutal, I wonder how many of these guys could say it to the whole band standing in front of them

[@MetalMan1245]

I love how Sam can just disregard the negativity, it's refreshing.

[@jphypeLG]

This is golden

[@centralia83]

I don’t think architects is gonna turn completely pop like some people think. They could go modern day rock, which kinda seems the direction they’re already going. It’s still metalcore, just influenced heavily by rock and industrial on the latest album. I love the new album

[@nafri91]

really wish to hear sam carter sings endwalker-footfall LIVE!! actually, i never thought sam carter looks like this, what i imagine like a young boy in a band. please eveyone, let him knows we want to hear live version of footfall!!

[@Jakeassimilate]

Incredible singer and such a lovely guy. Hope these stupid comments don’t bother him too much!

[@chalksmiles4036]

If anything this just tells them to go even further away from their old style and just go for the charts. Metalcore has a ceiling, you can't become a truly huge band selling out arenas without some radio friendly aspect. So why not aim for that and get the arena tours they deserve? To go back to their old sound if they don't have the heart for it, would just be to appease the so called fans who can't wait to jump online and spit hate at them.

[@xMeme_X_Lordx]

At first I thought the title said “Lamb of God comments”

[@ismaelknight5181]

I don't understand all the hate, I mean there's lots of bands that I'm not a fan of, but I don't hate on them, just because you don't like something doesn't mean you have to hate it just don't listen to it, but keep your negativity to yourself I honestly have enjoyed every single project this band has put out and every album is great in it's own unique way, I mean no one wants to see a one trick pony so I just don't get the hate ARCHITECTS ARE ONE THE BEST METAL BANDS EVER!!

[@DCul]

I jumped into this band after hearing Doomsday and the Holy Hell album. I think For Those That Wish to Exist is unique and is a masterpiece similar to how Sempiternal was for Bring Me the Horizon. Unfortunately, the classic symptoms of a broken spirit sounds very generic in comparison to their album prior. It's got great hooks and is fun to listen to but you can tell that there's a quality drop with the new sound. That's just my take from the singles. It sounds way too radio friendly and expected in terms of song structure. It's like Memphis May Fire's Made In Misery album. Great, catchy songs but the basic intro, verse, pre-chorus, chorus, verse, pre-chorus, chorus, bridge, breakdown, chorus, and sometimes the outro is very bland. Hit me with a curveball and start off with a solo, breakdown, or something unique from the get go. Mix it up instead of just molding each song to what structure is popular for the basic crowds.

[@kristijanfistrek9055]

Really? I find "Classic Sympthoms" levels above "For Those...". The production, harmonic content, melodies and the mixture of synth is way better. And, most importantly, since it's Architects, the riffs are finally more memorable and up front.

[@toyotaecw]

@@kristijanfistrek9055 What this guy said. I wish they incorporated some small guitar parts like the main riff in Goliath which felt like a throwback to the math core days.

[@lionsatmidnight]

“Fuck you where’s your band” Is exactly what I say. Cause if you’re in a band, you should be too busy to bash other bands. So people who talk shit usually aren’t in bands, and have no idea what they’re talking about. 😂

All our gods have abandoned us is their best work the new stuff is good but not as heavy and raw as some of the older albums. Abby road was excellent I like it better than the studio version

[@austinmullis8171]

I think I made the mistake early on of idolizing Architects a bit too much. Still some of the most amazing music I'll ever hear but I suppose l imposed my own ideas about what and who they were onto them too much. Their messages always struck me as very conscious and putting down the evil and hypocrisy in the world but from a place of humble compassion. Much of what I've seen from interviews of Sam in particular don't give me that vibe as well as the sound of their new music. It's good and I'm not shitting on it. It just doesn't move me so deeply like their previous releases. I can tell they either were not what I thought, which is fine and not their fault of course, or they have changed. Which also is their own business. I just feel a bit sad about it

[@austinmullis8171]

@@jmedia5547 was planning on it but never had the extra money lol

[@giuseppedifrancesco6458]

Well, of course they changed, as the main writer of their songs died.. I like their progression honestly, at least music wise, as they have done a lot of similar records and I don't think they had much more to say using that musical vocabulary. Holy Hell Is a beautiful "goodbye" imho

[@brantbedore1399]

To be fair to the band, they evolve as people and a lot of times fans have the expectation of their music to always be a time capsule of what they remember of the band... that doesn't mean their lyrics weren't inauthentic at the time. if you like the old albums and not the new ones, just listen to those and let the band move on. I don't care for their new material either but I respect the fact they are changing and moving past where they were before.

@@_notofthisearth so true!! Also I was referring to one of the hate comments Sam was reading lol But yeah architects have such a ridiculously solid discog I can't think of a "low point" ever, even this new album is exciting because they're trying out this alternative style with a nice twist

[@Straw_Breaker]

@@Fanrose2475 that’s incorrect; it is true that they released a demo tape first, but between that and Ruin, they released their debut album Nightmare. It is correct, however, to say that Hollow Crown is their second album *with Sam as the lead vocalist*.

[@theewhaler]

I’ve never really understood the comeback that because someone says something is shit that means their life is shit? He said that twice? I used to love this band and I probably listened to their albums hundreds of times through…now, they are pretty average/generic and I listen to a song once and it’s enough. MY LIFE IS THE SAME NOW AS IT WAS BEFORE - ABSOLUTELY FINE, PERFECTLY AVERAGE

@@flowerfloc He shouldn't care, but he seems genuinely bothered. I'm not talking smack. Never been a big Architects fan. Their music's good, just never got into it. All I'm saying is he'd come off better if he just laughed, smiled and moved on instead of throwing shit back
