Today, Architects has unleashed a crushing new single and video, “When We Were Young.” The track is the first new recording from the band since last year’s critically acclaimed, UK number 1 album For Those That Wish To Exist.
Drummer Dan Searle shares more about the song:
“‘When We Were Young’ is a song that recognises what is gained and what is lost as we get older. As the world unfolds around us, we can become overwhelmed by its endless complexity. when I was 20, I thought I had the whole thing sussed. Today, I’m pretty sure I’ll never understand reality. We lose our innocence as we age, and although fatalism and cynicism can creep in, we also begin to shift our focus toward gratitude for existence and for those that we love.”
“When We Were Young” is one of Architects’ most expansive sonic offerings to date, incorporating intricate guitar work and a phenomenal groove, with Sam Carter’s signature melodic rock vocals soaring overtop. The song was premiered on Clara Amfo’s BBC Radio 1 Future Sounds show as the ‘Hottest Record in the World’. You can now listen to the show and interview with vocalist Sam Carter.
Architects will also be touring the U.S. starting this September. Tickets are now available on the band’s website. All dates are listed below.
