So the guitarist for this band (the drummers twin brother) was basically the man behind the band, wrote all the lyrics etc, his name was Tom, Tom died of cancer, a lot of architects songs, this album in particular are from that existential mindset of when he knew he was going to die and with that in mind that brings another level of impact to these songs, so if you were to do more architects I think with that knowledge makes everything really hit home and probably helps you understand the place it’s come from. Gone with the wind is beautiful, I’d recommend it, especially with that context in mind

That really does hit different for real. Thanks for the information on the band!

Thank you for this video. That was just beautiful.

this was me when I just heard the album as music when it came out, not realising he wrote every song about him battling terminal cancer till he passed away shortly after. especially the "swan song ... when the veil lifts, will I see God?" part is so sad.
