Marking their first new music since 2022’s the classic symptoms of a broken spirit, UK behemoths Architects have issued their pummeling new track, “Seeing Red,” with an accompanying music video.

With the success of the initial, sold-out tour run, fans will get another chance to experience their energetic and nostalgic performance on stage in 2024. The Give Up… Read more »

The song runs under three minutes but captures a gritty and raw essence. Stitching together these sounds along with synths to slow it down, before revving up into an… Read more »
