Absolutely surreal to say we have a number 1 album! Don’t know if it’ll sink in fully. So proud of what we’ve accomplished but we have all our fans to thank for making this happen! Insane dedication! ❤️

If you haven’t bought FTTWTE yet, please grab a copy/download off itunes in the next two days. We’re gunning for that number 1 spot and it could be real close 🙌🏻

Demi God is one of my proudest moments on the record. I was trying to channel Radiohead/NIN but when transferring the lead melody onto strings it had a bit more of a Beatles thing to it. I reeeeaally bugged them when they were tracking that part to get each slur on point

Thanks for such an awesome response to the new record! I’m glad everyone’s enjoying it. We wanted to hone in on all of the elements that gave us goosebumps as kids getting into metal. We’re back for good!

One day I literally walked into my room, picked up a guitar and the first thing I played was that Royal Beggars riff. Like it was plucked from the air. Free riff floating around #architectsrah

Obviously GWTW is the most emotional song to me. If my head is somewhere else during a show, this song will always bring me back to where I am and I’ll think of Tom #architectsrah

Doomsday is a special one for me. I never got to collaborate with Tom whilst he was alive but this is the only song that has parts written by both of us (all his riffs) along with @danarchitects and his powerful lyrics

We’ve never pushed or been pushed this hard to create a record. It’s been the most difficult and longest time we’ve spent in the creative process and signals a new benchmark of quality for the band.

Animals was the quickest song to come together since I’ve been in the band! Demoed a song in a day. Dan re-wrote the chorus and verses and him and Sam had all the vocals demo’d the following day and it hasn’t changed since then #architectsrah

Impermanence started as an electronic song about 8-9 years ago. I was trying to write something that sounded like Portishead. Never did anything with it so turned it into a weird metal track #FTTWTE
