putting the butt in butt rock
|
| |
Is it still BMTH-lite or did they realize their mistake and go back to being heavy?
|
| |
oh god. that album title. this is going to suck, isn't it?
fuck.... and they jUST released that other pile of dogshit..... *sigh*
|
| |
Look at the album title, look at the song titles, and your question is answered.
|
| |
The Youtube thumbnail makes it look like they're trying to be Eskimo (Electric) Callboy. I can't listen to the song at work, but surface level doesn't look good at all.
|
| |
Holy hell this is sooooooooo bad
|
| |
I didn't think these guys could write a chorus any worse than Animals, but they've managed to do it with this song.
|
| |
I'll be too busy listening to the new Counterparts record in october to be disappointed by this anyways.
|
| |
I mean the previous single wasn’t groundbreaking but it was a fun song with a bit more punk influence than your usual architects song. This is fucking boring, melodies are ass. They are one of those bands that could release a good EP every now and then but they’re making these uninspired full lengths with 3-4 enjoyable songs on them while everything else straight up sucks.
|
| |
this song is fart
|
| |
Remember when this band wasn't trying to be Bring Me the Horizon 2
|
| |
Rammstein want their drummer back.
|
| |
haven't listened yet but yes the thumbnail definitely made me think eskimo (now: electric) call boy rip off for sure.
|
| |
Even the last Parkway Drive single was better than this.
|
| |
lmao they didnt even try and give it an album cover
|
| |
the all lower case formatting makes the track titles cool, Mars, shut up
|
| |
It's just too deep for me :^(
|
| |
Persefone >>>
|
| |
Well yea but this is not even a remotely applicable comparison
|
| |
I've never been less excited for something.
|
| |
wtf happened to this band..
|
| |
Am going to be honest i didnt even hear lyrics with this. I was too distracted by the atrocious quality. These guys have the talent to do....well more than this pile of garbage. Its a Sylosis gofundme band now.
|
| |
Persefone could take a shit in a bag and itd be better then this
|
| |
Architects really webmd’d “broken spirit”
|
| |
Do they have the songwriting talent tho? Tom was the main songwriter after all
|
| |
the downfall of this band has been entertaining to watch. Last album was complete ass and one of the worst of the year. Looks like they are pushing themselves harder to make something even worse
|
| |
This is the 3rd act in the past 2 weeks I have come across with a song referencing 'doom scrolling' which is a term I wasn't even aware of 2 weeks ago. What is going on.
|
| |
This band is seriously imploding without Tom and it’s wild to witness in real time how hard they continue to plummet
|
| |
And their streaming numbers will probably rise greatly
That's just the game
|
| |
"This is the 3rd act in the past 2 weeks I have come across with a song referencing 'doom scrolling' which is a term I wasn't even aware of 2 weeks ago. What is going on."
Probably a metaphor for how social media is ruining our lives or some shit.
|
| |
guys can't you see just how DEEP these guys are
LIVING IS KILLING US
big thoughts only in this thread
|
| |
Everyone knew this was the direction Architects would continue in after FTTWTE went #1 in certain regions. Anyone who was expecting anything similar to the heaviness of Lost Forever or All Our Gods was delusional and taking bong rips off some fleeting copium.
This is who Architects are now. Expect one or two riffs, a tight three minute song, and songwriting centered around singalong choruses, ultimately meticulously designed for Sirius FM Octane radio plays and streaming.
Hell, they’re so “in it for the bag” they decided slapping some edgy font on a whitish background would pass as an album cover.
|
| |
We can all give it a 1 and go on with our day, gg
|
| |
Those song titles are mega cringe
|
| |
I didn't even bother putting myself through the whole last album after checking out the singles so there's no way I'm subjecting myself to this.
|
| |
Teal once again with the most based take imaginable
|
| |
I mean, that's just the basic reality of it. Metal will never sell as well as pop... which is why pop is POP lol. So of course bands will transition in order to make a better living for themselves and get the money train to roll in. Fair play.
But the quality is bollocks and their talent level has plummeted to nil, so it's equally fair to just call it for the trash it is.
|
| |
i feel like their last album JUST came out..
|
| |
sucks
|
| |
this makes me sad
|
| |
You and I both spec.
|
| |
But there is good pop. This is ass.
I do not care if they go mainstream just do it well. Bmth is actually fun. This is horrible
|
| |
[2] we all love some good pop, just put some damn heart into it.
|
| |
I got 1 minute in. This sounds like a really bad cover of Sonne in the style of Bring Me the Horizon. What the fuck happened to these guys to make them think this was a good idea?
|
| |
Architects 2: The Search for More Money(tm)
|
| |
Bring Me the Horizon are infinitely better than this band
|
| |
The thing that gets me is they could really nail the sound with Sams vocal capabilities but they have taken the laziest road to do this. Also the hate the band had for There Here And Now is hilarious to think about when they put this out.
|
| |
THAN owns
|
| |
“Well yea but this is not even a remotely applicable comparison“
For someone like me who couldn’t name more than 20 active metal bands it probably is applicable 🤣
|
| |
Persefone, Tomassi, Rovers of Nihil, and Svalbard are my jams
|
| |
Maybe they’ll make a decent side project someday when they get sick of this
|
| |
THAN does own steak. Also your dig sounds like a cool time
|
| |
It's stupid fun, doesn't really sound like either of their other albums. You ever hear them before?
|
| |
Nah i havent at all. The album name just sounds so cool tho. Ill give it a crack in the morning
|
| |
give it a go brotha man, hope you dig it. Probably better you don't know their previous material cause it's so different lol
|
| |
Differents good most of the time lol
|
| |
MYGOD as if FTWWTE wasn't bad enough we get another 11 songs from these sellouts.
How can anyone who's been following this band - not even from the beginning- but from say, 2016 actually listen to this and say "yeah this is awesome". But don't worry Sam&co media will bend over backwards once again to make you sound edgy and modern.
|
| |
i kinda like those track titles though, didnt listen to the song tho and havent listened to the band since the one guy died and they put out the track 'Doomsday' which was seemingly about him. can't even remember what year that was actually, apparently the band are different now, yeah?
|
| |
I miss when butt rock was Creed and Nickelback. This sucks so much worse
|
| |
The video is like Eskimo Callboy meets Beastie Boys' "Sabotage" video. The chorus is total Linkin Park.
|
| |
It’s not that they sold out. It’s that Tom was the brains. They can’t write without him.
|
| |
Imagine being Josh Middleton and playing more riffy and thrashy stuff in Sylosis for little money to Architects and making 10x more to play this shite.
I’m starting to think Josh has little to no creative input.
|
| |
There is that but they have Josh there as well
edit: light beat me to it
|
| |
I've read interviews with him and he essentially says he just plays, and makes enough money to write and keep his own band going.
|
| |
Can someone tell Sam to stop taking himself so seriously
|
| |
worst band ever
|
| |
Worst band? Did Attila break up??
|
| |
aight, here we go.. bout to drop in.. lol
|
| |
chorus sucksssss
|
| |
couple quick reactions:
-i like some of the drum work in verses,
-guitar tone is nasty, i actually like it
-the pop/rap stuff is so headache inducing tho
-this video could have been so much funnier if there was actually any effort put in besides the outfits. seriously pointless with the uber *serious* playing shots..
|
| |
Meh, not offensive, just by the books octane tune. A bit disappointing though since I loved aoghau
|
| |
Yikes - between this and Beartooth, the two singles I've heard today are 0 for 2. The direction they're headed in is very disappointing, though not surprising (as others have pointed out).
|
| |
yeah, just sucks to see it in slow motion, you know? over many moons and youre just like 'still..?'
|
| |
the audio equivalent of tear gas
|
| |
You know things are bad when I find negative YT comments and not just witness a sea of "BAND CAN DO NO WRONG" drones
|
| |
@Joyful I’m surprised people still expect anything out of bear tooth … I suppose I am here commenting on an architects thread tho so I suppose I have no room to talk
|
| |
I don't hate it but at the same time I like Animals so I guess this Octane-Core shit just doesn't bother me that much. I don't see it becoming a viral-ish track like Animals though, it doesn't have that strong of a hook.
|
| |
living is killing us
|
| |
Listened out of curiosity. Wish I didn't.
Also Sam can not pull off the guyliner look dear lord
|
| |
This is going to get several 1 reviews and it'll deserve it. This is a joke.
|
| |
lmao this is so shit
I mean, wtf is sam doing in here. He can sing descent pop, like in The Here and Now, why did he choose to become a Chester wannabe
|
| |
@jay almost said it myself, not hating, but the look aint workin with his cue ball look lol
|
| |
They are trying very hard and it is so obvious it's embarassing
|
| |
Fairly sure Linkin Park did this riff on Meteora. Been following these guys since Ruin, but man they gave up after AOG.
|
| |
BMTH + Rammstein but not as good as either.
Couldn't make it past the first chorus. Another great band bites the dust.
|
| |
Also Josh is probs just joining this band to draw attention to and fund Sylosis which is a smart business move but just a shame it's during Architect's worst artistic period.
|
| |
Had a trifecta with LT/LF, All Our Gods, and Holy Hell. Then just went straight to the shitter.
|
| |
Nah, Holy Hell isn't good either. Daybreaker, Hollow Corwn and Ruin though m/
|
| |
Why is it that the more terrible a band gets the more popular they become?
Oh wait, that's right. 90% of people are morons.
|
| |
Band was never good
|
| |
Hollow Crown says otherwise
|
| |
[2]
|
| |
Nah they're not morons but they like to eat shit and that's pretty much the same oops
|
| |
Throwing on Hollow Crown now cause why not
|
| |
Ruin is their best album tbh, Hollow Crown and Nightmares go hard too.
|
| |
I was never a huge fan, but these dudes at least had heart. I can give them that.
This is a total sellout.
|
| |
Hilariously awful. Band was never good anyway.
|
| |
I still remember seeing every time I die, architects and bmth in the heyday on the epitaph tour. I think oh sleeper was there too. What a show
|
| |
Sheesh now that's a lineup
|
| |
should've disbanded after hollow crown
|
| |
"Do they have the songwriting talent tho? Tom was the main songwriter after all"
i think they realized that it was all tom pretty quickly after he passed and decided to not even try to take a stab at it
|
| |
yeah its pretty obvious tom was the writer.
just blows bc they've released some really solid tracks. hereafter and doomsday are personal faves
also daybreaker gets not enough love, intro track tho...
