Architects have returned with their first new release in months, dropping the blistering single “Whiplash” alongside a gorgeously shot music video. The track, produced by former Bring Me The Horizon drummer Jordan Fish, showcases the UK band at their finest. “Whiplash” marks the third single from their highly anticipated upcoming album, The Sky, The Earth & All Between. Set for release on February 28, 2025, via Epitaph Records, the 12-track album will include previously released hits “Curse,” “Seeing Red,” and the latest addition, “Whiplash.”
Vocalist Sam Carter shares, “We’re so happy to be back and to be releasing a song that we love so much, it’s us at our very best, and we think it’ll be a fan favourite.”
Commenting on the accompanying music video, which the band filmed in Slovenia, drummer Dan Searle shares, “We’ve long admired Director ‘Specter’ for his work with Rammstein, so it was a pleasure to bring him in for this song to create something for us. His visual concept gave life to the words in a unique way that may create more questions than answers, but sometimes that’s the beauty in art.”
He continues, “‘Whiplash’ marks the beginning of a new era for Architects. It is a song that speaks of tribalism, of a deepening chasm that lies between human beings based simply on opinions and beliefs. It gave us the opportunity to explore these concepts in a way that we haven’t before, and for the first time in a while it gave us fuel to write something truly ferocious.”
