#Architects #NewSong #Metal
*very emotional track, and the lyrics add a lot to it, but just musically on it’s own it didn’t hit as hard on the feels r reals front is all just to clarify*
I'm with you what you said 100%. Something is right something rubs me the wrong way. I kinda feels like if you are not gonna pop just end it already. They dragged it for too long.
@@johnyang799 listen to The Glow. pt 2 by The Microphones :D
@nik nocturnal as much as Holy hello was about grief and loss concerning Toms Death, this album is mainly about the bands concerns with climate change and an upcoming doom if we ( mankind) dont tackle it.
This last song is like a black swan song .
I’m a huge orchestral guy so I thought this was a fun track, lots of emotion :D
Nick should react to this 🔥🔥Banger :void of vision - decay 🔥🔥
So fun fact about the vinyl and this song. On the vinyl as long as you don’t take the needle off the record, that white noise at the end will continuously loop.
I honestly thought my player messed up hahahaha
@@googlemad123 same😂
I love that kind of details, reminds me to the Vinyl of F# A# Infinity from Godspeed You Black Emperor
To bad I couldn't afford the shipping
That’s fucking dope
It feels so warm and cozy, but then you start to understand the lyrics...
Ended up crying
Именно так у меня и было...
Шедевр, а не альбом!
same
Oh I bawled towards the end
Nik doesn't ever react to the actual lyrics. He seems to be far more interested in the musical aspects.
The lyrics of this song are really open and vulnerable. And then the way they end it.. with such a beautiful, peaceful message.
It becomes one of my favourite Architects' songs of all time.
This is an absolutely beautiful song.
gae
Those lyrics are heavier than any breakdown
Heaviness is more than just 0's and 1's after all.
/*Spiritbox has entered the chat*/
Jokes aside, you're right. 0's and 1's get boring if there isn't substance anywhere else
Beautifully said
When people refer to a song being heavy they obviously don't mean they lyrics, this is incredibly corny, people can dislike things, a song can have great lyrics but if it's musically lacking or just isn't to someone's taste they still aren't gonna like it, etc etc etc, I'm sure you get the point.
Those. Lyrics. Hit. Hard.
I feel ya :c
YES
Something has to hit hard on this album lmao cuz it's damn sure not the instruments getting it done
@@erich1380 h8r here... go elsewhere:D
@@edwincardona953 I mean I love giant and impermanence but the others are just mediocre. There's plenty of other bands out there making that same poppy sound
I knew he wouldn't like this one. In my opinion, it's an absolute masterpiece. The meaning, the feelings, the callback to Distant Blue... Amazing
Honestly Nik is always just searching for riifs and breakdowns :P
Distant Blue was way better bro. This just felt like the badly crafted version.
And Untitled II. way better.
Yep just went back and listened to the distant blue. The emotion was 20 times better.
@@johnyang799 Distant Blue felt more like anger and despair while this felt more like hopeful. Both are emotional and have their strengths in the right places. As for each one is better, I honestly don't know. I genuinely love both.
I think everyone kinda missed what this really seems to be for Architects. This whole album seems to me to just be a full opening up of emotion. It’s not them trying to be heavy and dark in each track. This seems to just be them opening up and letting their hearts out, particularly since this is the first album since Holy Hell, their chapter of mourning for Tom. This is really the start of a new chapter. It’s a heartfelt call.
People just choose to not understand, which is sad.
Beautiful words about a beautiful album. Especially in times like these I personally am very thankful about a piece of music that immerses me into a full range of emotional intimacy and makes me feel less alone with all that's going on. Not everyone gets this from an album like FTTWTE but I love that they found a kind of new emotional approach in this and did what they thought was right and it is right for them and for a lot of people, but of course not for everyone. Thanks for your words on the album, stay safe! 🖤
I mean sure. But the style that they did well were the softer songs on Daybreaker. The ones where Sam's voice was the primary instrument that conveyed heartfelt emotion and the background ambience was full of atmosphere. A lot of these new songs are just in that limbo for me of being half good and half bad, and without an identity. I wish it went in more of a Behind the Throne, Flight without Feathers, Unbeliever, and Cracks in the Earth way. I would've loved that, but because it's just half eh and half ok I can't really get into it. I understand what they are TRYING to do with this album, but some of the songs just aren't hitting for me like intended, and that's the problem. I still love the guys regardless, but I feel there was so much potential wasted.
So kinda like what amity affliction did with “misery” is was the album for basically ditching their previous style to express different emotions as said in interviews. I liked the album after A few listens
I can respect that as an artistic expression and it definitely makes sense given the overall vibes of each album, but not everyone has to like the end product. Holy Hell had more about it that I liked. This album, while it has some good songs, just didn’t gel with me as a whole.
Sam’s writing is poetic af. He is able to portray a wider spectrum of emotions than many singers.
I listened to this song at work last night and I had to go to the restroom cuz I got emotional. This song made me think of my grandfather who died over a decade ago. He was was such an amazing soul and I never realized how much I missed him until this song. Absolutely chilling song
RIP Mom 10-05-09. First time I ever admitted remeberance of the dead day. Feel honored.

Learn to be moved by lyrical content, Nik. Especially when you're reviewing an Architects song. It's 50% of its power.
THIS!
Agreed. This is his one review I massively disagree with. Everyone just expects the same from Architects and its sad because they are so talented and so much more than being "chonky"
If there is one thing i learned from watching Nik's content is that he doesn't give a shit about lyrics, which as you said is 50% of a songs power. Someone could make a song about how they took a nice fat shit today and as long as the instrumentals sound good Nik will give it at least a 4/5
@@Bluvoo lmfao that’s why he’s a living meme. This song is gorgeous.
@@Bluvoo remember its just his opinion, although i agree with him about the guitar, feel like it should have been arpeggiated or something. also, lyrics take more attention, so it makes sense why some people on their first listen really won't get it
This was honestly my favorite track on the album. It literally gives me chills and brings a tear to my eye.
Lol
nik just needs to realise there's more to music than just breakdowns and heaviness, sometimes there's a different type of heaviness :(
^^ This!
Fuck yes couldn't agree more!
I got that vibe when he listened to Constance by Spiritbox. But with Architects it’s not something you come to expect so you’re not prepared for it.
tbh i agree with him about the guitar, and on first listen I'd probably give the song a 6/10 imo, if the guitar had a bit more emotion or build then that would be like an 8 cause the rest was really great. idk what the lyrics are though, this is my response to my first listen
@@suddenswarm5944 I completely agree with the guitar. Lyrics, orch, piano was beautiful but that guitar layer needed to be higher in the mix with a fingerpick and it would have been stronger
*_These thumbnails are going far, holy shit._*
Holy Hell
@@ikasperski9842 nice
What a fantastic way to end an album
Are you joking?
@@daledavies_me He's right. It's an fantastic song. Idc if it's soft, it's amazing.
@@daledavies_me nah he isn't , maybe you are a joke so you think everyone is a joke 😂
@@daledavies_me 158 people liked my comment and 28 liked a comment disagreeing with your comment. You decide
@@andre8273 congratulations, you won the internet for the day. Your medal is in the post.
This song is... it's probably the most heartfelt song they've ever made aside from memento mori. Perfect ending to what it seemed like a story
Whenever Nik realises it’s not going to pop, he’s always like “ooohh... kay”
I think the guitar was originally written like that to build with the vocals and make the vocals more powerful
I really have the feeling this album is very situational. The first time I heard dead butterflies i didn't like it that much, but some weeks later listening to it when I was in a different mental state and I loved it, and I feel like that counts for most songs
The core kid in Nik was absolutely dying inside during this track.
Lots of Demon Hunter vibes coming from this song, really good ending for the album.
In my opinion, if this wasn’t the last track of the album this wouldn’t be as good as it is
The feels were very real
Great song. I'm not in the mindset of a lot of people where "this band HAS to go hard or they suck". This song is musically and lyrically brilliant. They did good on this one.
Gotta appreciate my man nik's work bro.He is literally working nuts rn.
This song..
This makes me feel like they're probably never going to go back to the well that is Tom's death.
They're not whole.
There's still a piece missing.
But that's not the same as broken.
It doesn't have to be.
There's still a path forward.
this analogy brought me to tears
Thank you
This man uses 20 outfits per day
Nik: i have a ton for yaa
😂
I feel like Architects is going to do what BMTH did with Amo, I think they will drop this album as just a more chill less heavy album than normal and then for their next one absolutely go crazy on it.
That would be awesome!
I've considered this as well.
Only thing I can say is that this is FAR superior to Amo.
See idk, I think Amo was an unashamed money grab attempt at topping the charts, and then post human was them reverting to type. I see this as a natural sort of progression for a band growing up.
@@chalksmiles4036 exactly, I don’t think they need to “go crazy” on their next album
EH NO
Idk why but he looks stressed just listening to the song as if somthing was pulled out from under him haha
Honestly this is one of my favorites. I love the heavy shit. But this is a breath of fresh air,
Omg not every song has to be heavy. This song is beautiful. Listen to the lyrics and imagine you are in a dark place in your life. You will be lifted and changed!
the lyrics dont make up for the boring musicianship for me. the whole thing is very one-note.
No. That's not the issue. It just felt like badly crafted distant blue/Untitled II. Yes the strumming takes away 90% of the feeling.
This song inspires me to do actually something with my life
There are other Architects that do this way better imo
Great album!!
This song was life changing for me... I loved it with all of my heart
Favorite's gotta be BLACK LUNGS. Other highlights were Animals, Discourse is Dead, Goliath, Dead Butterflies, Impermeance and Little Wonder. Overall I loved this album and is so far my favorite of 2021!
@Nevin Rettew same
What a marathon :) Discourse is Dead, Libertine, Goliath and Impermanence were the standout songs that were released today imo. Sort of satisfied but hoped for more bangers
I can't wait Nik covering this song with his 7 strings
I suddenly started crying in the middle of the song... awesome❤
It's like a deathbeds in Sempiternal or One day the only butterflies... in the and of ep. Last songs are calmer but more atmospheric
Holding back tears on this one. Love when heavier bands heartfelt songs. Absolute masterpiece!
This song really just made me depressed. Like I kind of understood the message of the album with all the other tracks, but that last one just states it so damn clear that it really makes me feel hopeless and powerless.
Kind of the point.
That's the power of death.
Really enjoying Dan’s little commentaries for more insight on each track.
“I decided that it should be an acoustic track because it felt like something that the record hadn't stepped into. But I think fans will get it. I think there's something in there that's pretty special.”
That was fun watching all of those reactions. You might want to check out the new Of Mice & Men and the new Veil Of Maia song as well. But first take a break from that busy day.
I think you need to go back and give this a few listens man to truly appreciate it and it especially fits in beautifully given the context and subject matter of the whole album. The first time I listened to it I thought it was good, not great but good... Here I am more than 30 listens later and it's damn near bringing me to tears... Genuinely haven't been emotionally moved by a song like I was this in a LONG time. The album is SERIOUSLY growing on me.
Been listening since Hollow Crown and love this album, something I thought about today is how the last song on each album is my favourite of the album. Don't know how they keep doing it. But this album is great for me, and that it's their 9th is mind-blowing still.
Right? Memento Mori and A Wasted Hymn still my favorites from them
@@martonjakabblatniczky3974 they're fantastic and the more experimental songs on each album, hope they do a longer song attempt like Memento Mori again in the future 😁

Thank you for taking the time and effort and reviewing the whole album! That was very fun and interesting to watch. I really love this album and the direction they're going although I did not, as probably all of us, expect anything like this. But I love that they're moving on and just do what they love to do. I believe that's what making music should be about. 🖤
Oof. His metalcore elitist mind is struggling with this one.

Sam's vocals are wonderful. RIP Tom
This album is so different. I love it
This song is gorgeous. Sure the instrumentals are pretty simple and the structure is kind of predictable, but the lyrical content and Sam's voice sounding so honest and true, it really brings everything together.
I absolutely love this band and this album. Amazing! Seems like if it wasn't super hard and banging no matter how killer the cleans and slower parts where you were just saying ”ok” and looked disappointed. just because they are not like they once were doesn't mean they aren't killing it with the new direction they are going. May be my new favorite band of they keep this up!
Nik never got it, this song..
Why?
Because it’s a masterpiece, but he looked so disappointed with this amazing piece of art
Day is not over... So cover incoming?
just joking. Go get some rest and thank you for all these videos. Was a lot of fun seeing your reactions to the album
That's my favorite song on the album. I love the live where he says there's virtue in emptiness.
as i said on the first video, Architects wanted to go somewhere different with this and they definetely achieved it and i think it was also a closer to "Tom's Era" and that they now wanna go beyond their typical sound, they did sth similar back in 2011 with The Here and Now which also was less heavy and an album many ppl dont seem to like, i personally love it, that was then followed up by Daybreaker which then paved the way for the "Trilogy"
New Darko song March 6th “Mars Attacks.” (Original date was February 27th but I guess no longer.)
Intro is a Kingdom Hearts song and you can't change my mind
As much as I love the bangers in albums, when they end with heavy feels are reals like this... really makes you sit back and think damn, that was a good listen
I loved the acoustic part as too me it felt like strings feel in an orchestra, and in that way it fit perfectly with the rest of the instrumentation. I feel like if you give the album more spins you'll start to appreciate the new tracks as well!
Congrats on 400k my guy!!!!
Can you do the same thing when You're Welcome by ADTR comes out next week?
Thanks for reminding me. Holy. Shit. Hyped. Even if it’s not what everyone else wants idc, it’s gonna be fire.
Great job Nik! Love the album, it's growing on me every time I listen
Lyrics written for Tom🤍
I think the guitars were supposed to be pretty abrasive. For a band like Architects, i don’t think they just wanted to make a simple acoustic song, they wanted to have a darkness to it. Personally this song sonically feels like a deep pit and the epilogue to the end of the world. Epic with the orchestra but dark with everything else.
Distant Blue/Red Hypergiant vibes, hits the feels
"Beloved distant blue... One day I'll die for you..." :')
Distant blue is hard
they couldnt have ended the album any better
4:21 when you're almost asleep in class and the teacher yells your name
Architects, every album:✋"beggar"✋👀
You’re not wrong ahah that’s what happens when you’re raised in the UK and have a hierarchal mind that the world will always be that way. Lmao
Nick pulling batch of hoodies out off washing machine: HEREWEGOBITCHES
This song was the best possible ending. I get its not for everyone, but it was the perfect fit to the end of the album. This whole album was such a trip, not the most intense album or the heaviest album, but it was overall very cohesive and solid. And ending on Meteor, which is like a "good vibe" song and transitioning to this was just pure ear porn. Im happy with this song. Cried over it a bit, ngl. It's kind of a cliche ending, but im so happy with it. Heavy is fun and energetic and all that, but having some heavy ending on a song that touches your heart a bit feels just divine to me. Perfect job, Architects.
There is sadness in this music
you seemed utterly disappointed in this track
He shouldn't 😥
It wasn’t good
@@boomerthepom8116 it's okay to have a wrong opinion ❤️
@@boxkid759 It's okay to accept someone's opinion isn't yours.
@@sarcasm4371 We'll see.
I can’t even express how much I love this song, I love this whole album. It’s different but that doesn’t mean it’s bad. I’m enjoying the way bands explore and experiment with their styles.
Songwriting and musicianship: 10/10
As an Architects album: 7/10 solid album.
This is honestly my favorite song off the album. It's beautiful. 🥺💜
Never have thought I'd get something like "an open letter to myself" ever again
Shure, it's hi-fi and no punk stuff but you get what I mean
It's funny that people say that "Nik should understand that there is more to music than just heaviness and riffs" like dude has an acoustic EP ffs. He DOES know that and he actually says that he enjoyed the song and he would have enjoyed it even more if not for the strumming.
I didn't expect a song like this in this album, but dude, I thought this one is a amazing song.
It’s a beautiful song, makes my hairs stand up on end.
Hmmm this album is very... idk not a fan
But I hope y’all enjoyed it!!
this is deathcore lvl of hitting hard like a truck, but it goes smoth through the ears and stomps the fells instead... fuck...
Lydia, highly suspect...oldie..smmmertime blues- blue cheer
Next has to be Void of Vison Decay!!
Appreciate the full album coverage. I'm obligated however to mention that i hope you react to Cane Hill's new song lol
This song ties up Architects as a whole up to now. The beggars reference, Distant blue, Dead Butterflies. Overall, what a good album. You dont have to like all of it, given that its an experimental album, but you can see how much they love doing music and how they wanted to try absolutely every style of composing, writing, and feeling. Thios is a fucking good band.
No matter how manly you are...you may shed a tear or few
these thumbnails just keep getting better man
Now we need the new Veil of Maya reaction.
Unpopular opinion: My fav is actually Flight without feathers cuz it really gives me that chillstep vibe that I’m really into.I don’t really care for Architects’s riffs ever since Holy Hell because it just fell short compared to Polaris (I’d say that Polaris churns out way better riffs than Architects do, Polaris whole discography even surpassed All our gods and Lost forever in terms of riffs) It made me realize that if I want massive riffs, I can go to Polaris. So I’m not concerned with Architects’ riffage.
It’s the architects equivalent to snuff by slipknot and that’s a good thing
It’s like you’ve never heard a orchestra before
Haven’t seen anyone else say it yet but Cane Hill dropped another new song too you should check out
something different to check out possibly? 2 CELLOS - Thunderstruck
It`s actually the 87th take. In first 86 Nik cried unstoppable thinking ''when the fuck is distortion come out??????''
They released a hidden track. Slaps hard as fuck y’all
I kept seeing my young children in my head as I read the lyrics. Fucking epic, lyrics.
Took me 5 times to drop the knot in my throat.
Can you make a video of how you restring/tune a guitar with a Floyd rose bridge
There is one more.... the hidden track
Feels are reals
I'd love you to react to the whole Erra album when it drops. The riffage is gonna be insane.
