Architects

Architects are a British metalcore band formed in 2004 in Brighton, England, by twin brothers Dan and Tom Searle. Known for their evolving sound, which blends metalcore with ambient and symphonic elements, the band has been influential in the modern metal scene. The current lineup includes Sam Carter (vocals), Dan Searle (drums), Alex Dean (bass), Josh Middleton (guitar), and Adam Christianson (guitar).

The band gained significant recognition with albums like Hollow Crown (2009) and All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us (2016), the latter being one of the last contributions by Tom Searle before his death in 2016. Their subsequent album, Holy Hell (2018), addressed themes of grief and resilience.
