Architects announce new album ‘the classic symptoms of a broken spirit’

ARCHITECTS have announced a new album!

Titled the classic symptoms of a broken spirit, the upcoming album from the UK metalcore titans follows hot on the heels of last year’s For Those That Wish To Exist, and is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Epitaph Records.

The band barely had time to celebrate success when they began the process or writing the songs that make up the new record. Produced by Dan Searle and Josh Middleton, with additional production from Sam Carter at Deacon’s Middle Farm Studios and their own HQ, Electric Studios in Brighton. The band were buoyed by finally being back in the room together after their last album was made mostly remotely due to COVID restrictions, the result was something altogether more “free, playful and spontaneous,” the band’s drummer and songwriter Dan explains.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; tear gas. The new song is the second single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from when we were young, which was released back in April.
