I actually love this song. It’s definitely different but this very Architects 😌
Definitely VERY different for Architects!
@@RachelleReacts I remember several old songs by them in the same-ish sound. I think people have trouble with it because it is not just a style change but a genre change. They have moved from the best metalcore to alt rock. I am a fan of both genres and this album would fit seamlessly in my alt rock playlist (old Skillet, Breaking Benjamin, Crossfade, Three Days Grace, Sick Puppies, Wovenwar and some of Sum 41) but I was still kind of pissed off the first time I heard it. The difference in quality from their metalcore to this alt rockish sound is noticeable. I would still put it high in todays top alt rock album charts but only because I haven't really heard new alt rock in a while that I liked.
I agree with your thoughts and glad you were positive. People HATE change but inevitably always get used to it. Just like BMTH people hated That's The Spirit but now fans really like it years later, I see people saying the same thing about Amo now.
This song is a huge change for the band but I do believe that fans will understand why they decided to write this kind of music. Because this song is a really good rock song, it just doesn't sound like Architects that we know and that's why people don't like it. But it's a good song and that's why I think people will adapt to it, could be years from now that they do.
That's unless every other song on the album is just heavy and brutal then disregard my comment lol.
Indeed! I was really glad watching your reaction that it seemed to be similar to mine. Sure, not sounding like the Architects that we've known but that doesn't mean that it's bad. Honestly, with these dudes, I have NO idea what to expect when it comes to the sound of the full album now but I'm ready for it.
I'm really going to laugh if the rest of the album is just heavy as fuck
Again sounding smarter than me. I agree tho. Style change is a game breaker for most die hards in ANY genre. But change is innevitable with most bands and its a healthy way to be. If ya just keep givin em what they EXPECT u suffer as a creator. Hence why I do gameplays and karaoke. Its for me...and if u dont like it...dont watch 😁
Just finished your reaction! We're definitely on the same page with it. I am really excited to experience the next era of Architects. This song was very well done and I think our heavy needs will be met too. In their earlier albums they had a lot of clean singing but the industrial/synthy stuff is new. I'm kinda thinking this album might be a mashup of all the styles they've gone through, plus some new styles like this for us. I've gone over every possible scenario for the record in my head so who knows. Regardless of what the sound is gonna be, I'm ready for it!!
@@RachelleReacts Well thats why its called Progressive Metalcore right? Cutting edge is almost always met with rejection at first
100%. Some people that hated the single will have album tats in 2 years. Inevitable fo sho
@@RachelleReacts lol Truth
They pulled a 180 on us all. It's one thing to develop new ideas, but to betray your roots is almost near unforgivable. I stand my ground when i state my frustration. It's great to bring in new fans and listeners but don't alienate your entire fanbase in the name of "progress".
So so good. I'm not even mad that it is bleghless
Sam tweeted in Feb that the blegh was done (RIP) so I wasn't expecting the it but I was NOT expecting this. That riff is so nasty.
@@RachelleReacts However, check Dan's instagram. A fan commented "Hope we'll gets bleghs back" and Dan replied: "your wish will be granted" 2 hours ago.
HOLY HELL I'm so excited!!!
@@Mora-tp1rl Damn, that would be shocking!! I was going off of this:
twitter.com/samarchitects/status/1224760077292310528?lang=en
@@Mora-tp1rl I just checked Dan's instagram and one of the first comments says "Nice one, but hope we'll get bleghs back" and Dan replied "we retired them. They had become a parody and had lost all sincerity. Sorry!"
MABA: Make Architects Blegh Again!
That lead riff definitely has a Josh Middleton vibe
Nothing prepared me to wake up to this today. This seems like the anthem to 2020. I get the BMTH vibes but still has architects signature beats and fills. Haters gonna hate, but we're just a bunch of fucking animals lol. I love it, and I'm so glad to have discovered this band in 2018.
Exactlyyyy! I feel like the BMTH influence is there but this is completely different still compared to the singles they've put out off Post Human. It still has an Architects spin. But hey, this was bound to happen! I knew while I was recording the video that the comments would be flowing in about BMTH haha
I got those Bring Me gives too. It's not that I don't like the song cause it's not bad at all. It's just not at all what I expected from Architects. Doesn't mean I think it's bad. Just hard for me to enjoy it as much as their other songs because I just don't see how it fits in anywhere haha
@@SimbaChar That's where I think everyone goes wrong, holding up every artists' work to their previous work. I really like doing the "clean slate" thing I talked about in the video so I'm able to just review it as it's own song instead of "it's good but not good in comparison to xyz song or album". You know?
@@SimbaChar but I do agree. If I look at it from just that perspective then yeah, it's not as good as their old stuff. But I'm still stoked to see where this new direction takes them and whether or not it's a full on sound change or just some experimental tracks on the new album
@@RachelleReacts yeah I agree with your points too. I should be more used to this with bands by now. BMTH, Linkin Park... Had major sounds changes. It's natural. I'm interested where they go with it. I just hope they don't stop being Architects.
Totally in love with this song. Can't stop listening to it and can't wait for the new album 😍
So many bands have been trying to imitate Architects I totally get why they explore different influences like this.
Edit: as a massive Architects I still loved it ^^
Totally valid point as well. Architects brough the blegh to life. They've notoriously been ripped off in the metalcore scene, even with Holy Hell. The Doomsday riff is EVERYWHERE. They've influenced the scene so much, I've got faith in them. Plus, I like this song by itself so no reason for me to write off the album like I've seen so many people doing!
@@RachelleReacts Agreed, I'm fairly certain that there will be more techy and heavy stuff on the album aswell :)
In my opinion this is going to be one of their just vibe with it songs, I still got hope there's going to be some neck breaking tracks 🤞.
I listened to this song more times since it came out than to Hereafter in general. I love the feeling of this. It's still Architects. It was time for change. And it's a good one. Sam's voice fits the style very well. And I don't need the blegh. I love it, but it has become a meme.
A lot of people complained that the last three albums sounded all the same. Now a lot of people complain that this sounds different. Humanity is so fucked with expectations.
It sounded the same only for stupid douchebags, because if you listen closely you'd know that it's completely differient albums, especially Holy Hell
I’m definitely here for it. Like I said in discord, I haven’t listened to them much but this was pretty good.
Loved it! its different but so so so good, his cleans are so good
I ADORE this new sound they are going for. Change isn't permanent either so they can keep surprising us! Great video!
Loved it. Everything they’ve put out is good, this is no exception.
Real recognize real
I absolutely LOVE this song. It was so unexpected but what makes it so good is it's seamless blend of like industrial, hard rock yet still sounds like architects. Like they've proved they're capable of more than what they're typically known for. Sam sounds a little like Chester Bennington when he sings the chorus. I'm all about this
Check out their interview with kerrang if you havent already. It's insightful.
Yeah, I’d agree with all of this.
I have! I’ve been redirecting people to it. Great read!
Always my favorite reaction haha 🤘
Love this change! I always loved their 'softer' and 'clean' stuff from The Here and Now era and I was always so bummed out that the band never played any track of that album. I got into them during the LF//LT era so after Holy Hell I was ready for something new and different from them. Can't wait for more ^.^
my first time on your channel. thanks for uploading this. liked and subbed
Damn I love it! What a banger!!! 🔥
it just made me love them more
I love this damn song. So different from them. I jam this almost daily. Good work! 🤘
TY music kept recommended this band but always skipped them. Then one day, I actually listened to them and glad I did. 😀
The main rhythm really hits nicely. I enjoyed it. Probably will give it a few more listens aswell, after i checked out your kingdom of giants reaction, haven't really been around lately, so let's change that a bit. Glad to see your doing well! Keep up that smile 😊
I've been jamming the single on and off this morning, I personally like it. I hope there's some variety on the album though! I have faith there will be.
Thanks for watching!!
at first i didn’t like this song but after hearing it multiple times, this makes sense. As a guy who listened to architects at a very young age due to my brother playing hollow crown a lot (prob not good for a kid but wtv lol), to me this is a very natural progression in their discography
I loved , I believe see big change , and I loved
I'm just getting into different bands so I can't anything other than I really liked this track can't wait to go back in their catalog and see why everyone loves them
Oh, yep! Their catalog is a fun one to run through. I think that this album will only add to the collection :)
Great reaction, great open minded thoughts. :)
I liked the song already at the first listen, but it has grown a lot since then. The song is so intense that Sam doesn't needs to add aggression by the vocals.
Never got into BMTH, but the main riff has a clear Rammstein vibe, it's just brutal, but not as monotone as Rammstein is. I really enjoy the industrial sound.
🔥🔥🔥
Soy el único que ya muere por escuchar esta belleza en vivo 😍😍😍😍🤘🤘🤘🤘
No doubt i fucking love this 🤘love it i have it on my playlist already🤘✌
I've reallly been jamming it this week since the video, such a catchy tune and that riff is thicc
Great song, greetings from Paraguay 👊
This is a total counterpoint. Wasn't expecting this from Architects, but I love the song/new sound/new vocals from Sam 😍😍😍😍 Can't wait for what the band is going to do next. Great reaction video Rachel 👍
Thank you! I'm interested to see what this album will hold for us! Can't wait!
jeah hard to listen to a band witha clean slate(?)/new page. There will always be expectations from their earlier albums.
the beat reminds me of Working force songs from times of the DDR, etc. which has a really catching rythm.
BUT i really enjoyed it and am hyped for the album!!!
thanks fpr ur video!
Fucking love it 🤘🏼🔥🔥🔥🔥
Very intelligent review!
Awesome reaction!! Songs like this take me back to the days of linkin park hybrid theory being heavy but has it's soft moments & so love definitely. 🎸⚡⚡⚡
Another band that moves to nu-metalcore, I hope they don't completely change their sound. But you have to make the changes :c 🤘🖤
I have faith that we'll still hear some of their sound on this new album!
@@RachelleReacts so am I
I've never heard original Architects before--so I thought this one was great, with the heavy, driving CHUNKY beat and riff; and when Sam hits the high notes, DAMN he reminds me of Chester Bennington from Linkin' Park. I loved it!
For the first time i support architects great song
Tom sadly went, he discussed (from an interview with Dan) releasing some music to bring metal and industrial together, like a heavier version of NIN. This song captures that. I love it, and let's wait for the album to see what we get. Forever Architects
I hated their old sound, So, For me, This is absolutely kickass!!
I fucking loved this song... Sam is a great singer with beautiful voice, He should sing more often rather than screaming which is why doomsday, Royal beggars, Animals are like love to me...
This song is fucking great 😎🤙 fav song of 2021
personally I never really was a big architects fan. so I was just a bit curious how the new song sounds. but damn.. this is good. this is real fucking good!!
I like it very much. 🤘🤓🤘
I have heard Architects albums from their beginning, and also seen them live couple of times during their early days. Didn't really think much of their stuff back then, it just sounded quite basic metal core. But when All Our Gods album came out I woke up like "wow this is something really good nowadays!". After that they've been progressing to more straight forward pop-rock-metal, but I really don't mind it. I still enjoy a brutal metal beating (most of the time), but nowadays the actual songs matter more than how it put out, and this is a super-catchy song, really really good!
The style change was expected, at least for me, and for me this is the way to go.
Architects to me is the band of excellent musical composition and lyrical content, and that's still there. I have never really cared for harsh vocals, so to me this has all of the positives of Architects and none of the negatives. I love it.
New Architects always is exciting lol. I like the experimenting with the instrumental and vocal tones. However I'm a little worried with how similar it is to BMTH. Architects usually has a variety of different sounds on their albums. But you can tell it's an Architects song. Of course seeing how it fits on the record will be the final say. Cautiously optimistic
I'm right there with you! I like it as a single but I'm hoping for variety on the album
Love your reactions rach. Im deff a new subber and support. You should check out "bulletproof" by from ashes to new. Amazing. Oh by the way your hair is OMG! Love the blue..
I am really looking forward to this album release so we all can sit down and see where this fits in. If this is the direction they are going for with the album I'm pretty sure Architects are no longer for me. When I hear Sam sing these lyrics I don't feel it at all. A little disappointed but not too worried yet. The good thing is that I can choose what albums I want to listen to. What makes me sad when my favorite bands take turns and choose different directions is that the live experience changes drastically. Fingers crossed for another somewhat heavy album!
15 songs on the album, features from heavier vocalists and Dan has confirmed that there will be gutterals. I think it sounds like there will be something for everyone on this album personally! I also can’t wait to find out though. Or at least hear the next single to see how it differs from this one. They’ve definitely got my attention
This song is fire fuck!! So good🔥🔥🔥
Heck yeah! Personally I loved the track. Especially with that crispy ass china in there! Sooo good. Also I completely agree with everything you said about the track and the band having been through so much.
Love the chuggy parts.very catchy song. 🤘😈🤘
You look like a mixture between my mum and my auntie, i know that is very random but i cant unsee it now. Great video by the way
Omg I found out from your post!! So it IS happening!! There IS a album coming!!we got the title and everything ( nvm u said it lol.haha I seen your noti and jumped up and made sure it was real and seen it now here)
Yep!! Saw that in the credits and I was stoked. I personally don't think this will be their sound for the whole album, I think they released the most experimental but I could be dead wrong. Can't wait to find out though!!
@@RachelleReacts I agree fully
I believe this is the radio like single trying to capture more people like the Bmth fanbase. And album going be great like holy hell. I really dig this song. But it's not the architects we know. For sure Sam Carter's vocals.but I DO like it. Big sound. Well see if we sre right which I really have no doubt the we are. But wow what a surprise!! Remember how many times I've said I wish for architects album for 2020!?!never would of thought
@@forevermarked5826 yeah, I think all Architects fans were out here waiting for this drop in 2020, myself included. Although it was definitely not the sound that I was expecting, still stoked
Song is straight BADASS!!!!! PERIOD!!!!
Pull the pin indeed! It's like when Paradise Lost did 'Host' and their fans divided like the red bloody sea. Personally, I love this direction, it's them but not them and experiments in style ALWAYS result in an evolution for the better (...mostly). Did not know this had come out but it's on my playlist now! Thank you Rachelle!
I definitely anticipate the divide. I also wonder whether this is the whole direction or whether this was an experimental track off of the new album. I feel like they'll still bring some heavier songs, although no blegh ever again, but I have no idea! So many questions. Would love to know that album release date when they're good and ready!!
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed!
Update: I no longer "anticipate" the divide, it is here
This is definitely different but I can get behind this, nice reaction(:
i dont mind the direction change, honestly bmth has a ceiling with what they can do stylistically unless oli is indeed all the way back with his voice but i doubt that. So technically there is a place for architects to learn this style than take it harder.
I can agree with that, plus who knows whether this is just a one-off single or whether this is an entirely new direction. I'm hoping for somewhere in the middle of those two things. That being said, Architects has two albums in my top ten of all time so no shade to the older releases.
@@RachelleReacts agreed, either way it takes a lot of balls to drop this as your first single given their reputation, id be surprised if this was the only song to sound in this vein.
For this style, it was quite good. Not something I would listen on the regular, but I would be interested to check out the rest of the album. If you get a chance you should really check out Orbit Culture :)
Kinda softer compared to their previous record... But those riffs all over the song is just pure architects.... I'm in love again.. Hoping for some heavy af tracks for next album
I got a suggestion, the gloom in the corner - coffin bearer its one of their earlier stuff but dam is it good
I’ve heard it! I did a reaction for their newest single but everything else that they’ve put out I heard prior to having my channel!
Great song and band
@@RachelleReacts you should check out defilement - vile if you haven't yet it has bound in fear and gamma sector in it its stupid heavy
I come here every few days to view the reaction at 2:17 🤣
I had the same exact expression you had. I loved it tho 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Probably the most shocked I've ever been on one of my videos haha. I'm definitely jamming it this morning after my first listen! I'm here for it.
I've probably listened to it at least 40 times ahahaha. So damn catchy. I'm not surprised if they get just as much hate as ffak did with locked in my head lol
Rammstein style on Metalcore...
Industrial Metalcore
I don't think Sam changed his voice, way of singing, still sounds like him, just with less (none) screams. I love his clean vocals and this song is simply amazing, for me it still sounds very much like Architects. And like you said, this is just one song, I'm pretty sure there will be gut-wrenching vocals on the album. And you can't please everyone and I'm sure some fans will not like this, but, I do like it very much and I wasn't even surprised at this. Damn, this was a messy message, it's early morning so forgive me. Anyway, love this song, love this band and I will subscribe to your channel. Peace!
Wow, that's very different for them. I liked his vocals for this song but I'm hoping at least some of the new songs on the album will have his older vocal style. I did enjoy the guitar work a lot!
So now people are saying that it's been confirmed there is a "blegh" on the new album (I have not confirmed this myself so take that as you will). If that's true, I don't know how they'd fit a blegh into this style haha
Circling back to this, its false information. I went to the source (Dan's instagram) and they misinterpreted one of the comments. He very clearly says in the comments that they have retired the blegh
@@RachelleReacts Haha, you got my hope up there, I always enjoyed their "bleghs". Still, I'm really interested to see what direction they'll go for this album.
I'm usually really not into Architects, like at all.
But this song is amazing. I always bashed on Sam for his sing-scream vocals (which I hate in general), but he smashed the cleans in this. 🤘🏼
It's almost with all bands the same as they grow older. They don't have the aggression in them anymore being over 30, I've been seeing this with so many bands by now and it's natural. This often results in writing less heavier music. Holy Hell of course still was a heavy album, because the whole band was griefing over Tom, who also was the main-songwriter. So I kind of expected the next album to be very different from what they've been publishing before.
But, we also know, that Architects dropped their most "experimental" songs off Holy Hell before dropping the whole album. I already thought with Royal Beggars that they will go kinda soft, which wasn't the case in the end. So let's wait and see what the Album itself will sound like. My body is ready af and know that Architects love to surprise their fans. But it's true that this album could be Architects' "That's the Spirit".
This!!! "But, we also know, that Architects dropped their most "experimental" songs off Holy Hell before dropping the whole album."
This is what I've been saying to people. I whole-heartedly believe that Architects is trying to make waves with the most experimental single and that we'll still have a few different styles on the album. But, there's nothing to do other than wait and see! The good news is, Architects has put out a LOT of amazing albums that we can always go back and listen to for that sound. I'm interested to see where this will go.
Mate....this song is aggressive as fuck. Vocally no, lyrically absolutely.
@@johnnailon588 the riff is definitely aggressive too
Now you gotta do the new release from Architects - Black Lungs 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
Tomorrow
@@RachelleReacts 🤘🏻🤘🏻
2:38 we love that haha
Daybreaker meets BMTH? i actually like the track. daybreaker is one of my favourite Architects albums and theres a lot of Sam singing clean on there
Daybreaker was masterpiece, this sounds lame. Even The Here And Now was masterpiece and I loved it. But this is so lame for them. They have talent, and this sounds pretty mainstream and talentless. I hope it's only one song like that.
@@user-el5kq1je4s shh
Yeah, well! I loved the albums until "All of our gods have abandoned us", especially that album - can't tell how often I've listened to that one. Then the next album was released and I was kinda disappointed because they seemed to play safe on that record. Can't even remember its name, lol. So after listening to that album became less and less interesting because it was kinda repeating what they already did. Now THIS song here is what I would have expected right after "All of our gods...". This sounds fresh and new and still architects-ish.
Bring me the Rammstein!
Alot of metalcore bands are going softer plus going more in a hard rock sound. I'm still gonna listen to architects.
I hope this is the slow song off the new album
The Official info on the video says the album's coming on february...
Yeah, it came out shortly after this video that it would be expected February 26, 2021 but I had this up before any of that info was available.
@@RachelleReacts .....I stumbled upon this song last night....damn, I've never raped the 'REPLAY' button so much in my life, LOL.
Korn was the 1st band i liked which changed their sound. Listen to their 1st c.d. They sound nothing like that after maybe the 2nd cd. And thats a question mark. I liked this song and style better than total screaming. Changing style to me is about the $. They would definitely make more $ with a style like this.
I don’t get the BMTH comparisons, Sam’s done clean vocals on a number of Architects songs (Royal Beggars, A Wasted Hymn, Memento Mori, Alpha Omega, Doomsday to name a few), the band’s been using Synths for the large part of their discography, all they’ve done on this is change the formula slightly where they’ve pushed the clean vocals and synths a bit further foreword, and the way they use the synths is completely different to BMTH, Architects use synths more for ambience and mood where as BMTH use synths like an extra instrument. To me this still sounds like a genuine Architects song, the riff, the breakdown, the ambience in the synths etc, the change is definitely different but I’d compare this type of change to when Parkway released Vice Grip and then the album IRE, there was some super heavy moments on that record, so I’m confident we’ll still get some ridiculously heavy moments on FTTWTE, trust in Architects
so im not opposed to a whole, or most of an album thats like this rather than architects normal style, I personally enjoy sams clean vocals a lot, Boviosuly as a massive architects fan im never going to be opposed to their normal style
You should read the article that Kerrang put out this week about the album. Great read and some insight to the sound
its a great song. i just wish the vocals were more aggressive
like on doomsday
If they change, people will complain. And if they stayed the same, people will also complain.
Sometimes it seems like some metal fans don't know WHAT they want. 😅
Please check out August Burns Red - DEFENDER 🤘💯
Lol I got an ad for the song before this
Can you react to the new While She Sleeps Sleep Society?
This is the best reaction cause express all the opinion off all the people listen it the song I mean your face expression , check out my vocal cover of animals by architects , new suscriber by my part , cheers
Never really listened to much architects. Coming from a early post hardcore/emo/screamo world, found their stuff a bit too techno/clean for me, missing rawness. While this has some of that clean and polished sound, I find the vocals go better with it. Not my favorite song ever, but I am going to be jamming it.
Since their band member died, they maybe create a new sound for themselves🤔
Teardrops of Bring me the horizon are good too
It’s very new Bring Me The Horizon I love it
I liked the instrumentals but wasn’t a fan of the vocals. Part of the reason I love Architects is how their music hypes me up and part of that is the instrumentals but also part is Sam’s vocals. On this one I didn’t care for all the whispered lines. I liked the song overall but I’m comparing to Holy Hell which is one of my all time favorite metalcore albums. It’s hard not to be disappointed but like you said I’ll hold my final judgement until the album is out
The track list came out today and there’s 15 songs on the album. That’s 14 more for you to possibly enjoy! Also, I was reading the band’s comments back to fans and there was a thread about some more aggressive vocals on this album. I think everyone is worrying a bit too soon!
Rachelle Reacts I think I overreacted a bit because it was so different. I go into it expecting something and when I listened to it first I was disappointed because it wasn’t what I wanted or expected in my head. The more I’ve listened to it though it’s grown on me. I still have high expectations for the album 😄
Totally agree with your wage war comment. I was absolutely disappointed in that album. Oh and you definitly have to check out infinite illusion-absence.
I don't know what I expected, but this was not it. I can definitely hear BMTH in this. It's so much less technical than what I'm used to, when listening to Architects' previous work. Unfortunately, this is not for me.
Fair. Knowing Architects though, I don't feel like this is going to foreshadow the entirety of the new album! I'm excited to see what else they've got on there.
@@RachelleReacts I'm absolutely interested to hear the rest of the album.Even if it is no longer for me, that's fine, I'll find another band that is more to my taste. Just makes talking about bands harder, if you always have to specify what albums you liked ;-)
@@RachelleReacts I think you are hoping this isn’t the case but I know deep down you know that old architects sound is gone ....
Not hating at all ! Just sayin
@@jasonperry4215 Nope. I already stated what I think and that is, in fact, what I think.
Reacción a Slipknot solway firts
This is unique and good tbh, but I personally hate it when the chorus repeats 3-4 times in a song. It kinda gets boring just after a couple of listens.
But I'm looking forward to their new sound anyways, don't know what the new album is gonna be like!
The new album is 15 tracks which is a ton of songs. There are some features on it of heavier vocalists and I also saw some comments from Josh saying there will be gutturals. It sounds like there will be something for everyone on this album maybe!
@@RachelleReacts That's great to hear 😊
Not a massive change for Sam. Listen to 'The Here And Now' album or the title track from 'Hollow Crown'.
Sure but when did that come out? Considering their most recent releases, definitely a massive change in direction other than like A Wasted Hymn maybe.
@@RachelleReacts 'Hollow Crown' was 2008 and 'The Here And Now' was 2011. And then they changed again when the released 'Daybreaker' in 2012. They're always evolving. The transition of 'AOGHAU' to 'Lost Forever' to 'Holy Hell' is actually their most consistent period with the focus on refining a specific sound across 3 albums.
@@myohmyDesign It was more of a rhetorical question lol
@@myohmyDesign I would agree that Architects have been evolving but evolving indicates change. Which they definitely have. This synthy/industrial style is not seen on any of their past albums I’d say, including those you mentioned. Although Sam’s cleans have always been in the music, the style here is different af
You either die a metal band or live long enough to become a rock band.
Some love it but I think it makes most of us pretty sad. We’re watching bands get squashed by labels, Wage War, BMTH, Asking Alexandria and a lot of others.. what’s sad though is the bands write about it in their albums.
You should read the article that Kerrang did on the album. Don’t think they’ve become a rock band based off that but time will tell
Right. I tend not to listen to any material even singles before the album comes out, an album to me is an entire song. Okay article I guess first sentence calling this track “Brilliant” points to salesmanship and inception of deterring opinions. We will see, and your reactions make me happy feeling others connect with music emotionally like I do. Great reactions on the KOG album 🤘🏻subscriber here
Thank you very much! Appreciate you!🖤
Once again proving that Sam Carter has the best vocals in metal.
