Brighton metallers Architects have just dropped a brand new single in the form of When We Were Young.
It's the band's first new music in over year, following 2021's 5K-rated For Those That Wish To Exist, and they certainly haven't mellowed out in that time. It's an absolute stomper.
"When We Were Young is a song that recognises what is gained and what is lost as we get older," says drummer Dan Searle of the inspiration behind their new track. "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."
