[@travisbradley8234]

Sam has been working and training really hard to become a better clean vocalist. I like that he gave it a shot on this one! I love the track. I just had to accept that Architects will never be the same since Tom passed. And they are pretty amazing still! Thanks for the reaction guys

[@StewinHead]

Did Sam mention somewhere that he's working on his clean vocals, or is that your guess? Just wondering

[@chandraabudiman]

Yes people hating on their new style should understand that like the way Wyat and Lindsay put it. They lost a limb so they're not gonna be the same and they can't be the same.

[@michaelwagner6733]

@@StewinHead pretty sure he mentioned it in an interview... let me see if I can find it. They didn´t really do anything in this song with his voice, just nobody is used to Sam´s clean voice :D

Its evolution, why would anyone want to stand still and stagnate when you have this in your range? Doesn't make sense to me!

Also, Dan and Tom both always listed Tool and Deftones as a couple of their biggest influences in previous interviews. With that in mind this new direction makes quite a lot of sense.

@@Anthony-pq4vr I don't like them personally. I just don't get the hype.

[@stormofmagic9358]

@@Anthony-pq4vr In my opinion, the lyrics are the best element of the song, my problem lies mostly with the vocalist's voice. In my opinion it does not fit with the song and atmosphere at all. Vocals are definitely hit or miss, so if one enjoys the vocals this would be very different. I also believe the song is a little repetitive, and not a lot happens instrumentally. So, I'd say it's an ok song which way too overrated

[@Chugs4Serotonin]

I prefer Black Lungs over Animals all day long lol. I had to listen to Animals 2 or 3 times before I loved it. This track was instant love from the first listen.

[@Chugs4Serotonin]

@@caseydykes117 My favorite band is A Day To Remember, so a wordy chorus really does it for me, because they do the same thing with most of theirs. So I was instantly like "hell yeah!" when I heard this song lol

[@Chugs4Serotonin]

@Daisy Dan I never said it wasn't. I love both songs. That definitely makes Animals more interesting though. I just prefer the style Black Lungs is going for, and that's why, for me, it's the better song. However... that doesn't make the Animals bad. It's a preference thing. My preference changes all the time. I could wake up one day, and decide that I prefer Animals over Black Lungs. As of now though, Black Lungs is what I'm into the most

I agree with them. I was hooked right away on the first listen of Animals. Idk just something about the simple chugs and the line "should I just pull the pin" with his new style of singing. But for this, I needed like 5 listens to fully get into the chorus cause like wyat said it's quite wordy. But that breakdown all the way to the end is amazing tho!

Josh Middleton doing back vocals in this one, but yes that is also one of Sam Carter's voices he can pull out. That dude has such a large vocal range and can easily diverse dynamics in his singing, even during live performances. For example, you can hear Sam has done a lot of clean vocal parts in Architects' old stuff that precedes LF//LT.
