LP - Architects - All Our Gods Have Abandonesd Us (10th)

1LP - indie black splatter

"All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us" celebrates 10 years since its release in 2016 with a newly remixed and remastered presentation, along with reimagined artwork. "All Our Gods" is the heaviest and darkest work to which frontman Sam Carter, bassist Ali Dean, guitarists Adam Christianson and Tom Searle, and the latter's twin brother drummer, Dan Searle have ever put their name to, both on and below its surface.

It is an album that challenges and progresses a genre long thought to have stagnated, and embraces its inspirations at a time when many rock and metal bands seek to hide them in search of mainstream acceptance. It is also born from considered minds filled not by thoughts of being the biggest band in the world, but of making a difference. Architects are, for that reason, a band like few others; they are five young men who stand for something, and who possess an intelligence, awareness and spirit that inform the very fiber of their band. The worldwide anger and disillusion encapsulated in "All Our Gods" wrestles with contemplations of death, god, and faith in search of some semblance of hope for a world increasingly consumed by fear, anger and confusion.
