amjggg Cant agree more feels like yesterday when i pumped this album directly when it came out

After blasting this album for the fourth time and going through all of the comment sections, I have come to realization that this is the first time I have ever seen a bands album get released where there is absolutely no hateful comments. This is a first and there is a reason for it. This album fucking goes hard, hits hard, and has the emotion to tie it all together. I am speechless with this album. Easily album of the year for me and its only the second month of the year. ALL HAIL ARCHITECTS, WE'RE NOT WORTHY.

Not because I believe this album isn't worth it, how could I possibly believe that? it's a brilliant album, but there are always haters. It's refreshing to see that people have left hate aside for once and came to appreciate this astounding piece of art. I seriously doubt that any other release this year could top this. Amazing.

The screams are brutal and intense yet still understandable and the cleans also give you a real sense of emotion and meaning to the lyrics.

lol I remember looking up them on Wikipedia around 2009 and it consisted of around thirteen lines. Now it's a lot. I'm so glad they've made it.

My favourite song by them right now - I should say most listened to, as their songs continually move me deeply and help me think outside the box. I am seeing them live soon and I've never been so psyched for a concert in all my life - but it won't be the same at all without Tom Searle. I hope you're resting in peace. You changed the way I played guitar man, and you were a chill dude without rockstar ego. I didn't know you, but it was the most heartbreaking news in recent memory. It's hard to deal with as a huge fan and I could tell from interviews you were such a nice guy. I'm glad to see they are trudging on full force... I thought they were on hiatus, and got the ticket last minute that was one of the last before they sold out! Rest in peace man, it makes me want to cry just thinking about your undeserved fate.

I love how all the comments about this song,album and band are 100% positive, every where i go people think Architects is an awesome band, i feel so many emotions listening to them

This song, is one of the best i have heard in many years

Underrated song couldn't stop crying to this rip tom

Do anyone know if there will be song commentaries for this album? Have not been around all of them yet, just listened to Distant Blue, Colony Collapse and repeatedly been dragged in by Broken Cross. The lyrics on this album, from what I think so far, are beyond impressive. It's atypical from a lot of the generic mainstream lyric writing in this genre, and I am loving it. It drags you in and does not only paint the picture, but forces you rethink your opinion on the more heavy subjects, like religion and our understanding of the soils of the western world. Thank you Sam Carter, you are the man in my book..

Gotta say this is their best song yet holy fucking shit i cant stop listening to this one! Since the release of the album i got stuck immediately, its so powerful.

gets me every fckn time ..

this song is so beautiful i can't get over it

1986 was deemed the year of international peace between the united nations. it is also the year the Chernobyl nuclear accident happened killing 31 people but leaving the land in waste and became uninhabitable. it is also the year we first celebrated Martin Luther King day. also, some people in the Reagan administration secretly sold arms to Iran causing the Iran-Contra affair.

I find the singing different on this album compared to songs like Devil's Island and Unbeliever. Sam Carter, you the man :)

I've listened to them a little bit before but never truly sat down and listened to their stuff and I'm really glad I'm listening to this album so good!

Such a emotionally powerful song.

I was worried that Sam wouldn't be using his singing voice from what I saw from Broken Cross and Nayser. Fortunately I am sadly mistaken. So stoked for this album can't wait when I get it along with the shirt.

One reason I love Architects so much is because they actually stand for something relevant and are politically active and engaged in speaking out against all that's wrong with humanity. For God sakes, they even talk about the inhumane slaughter of dolphins in Japan in their song "The Devil is Near".

This is such a great song, the actual colony collapse disorder was an interesting read as well when i was working out the meaning behind the song

To me, Issues and Architects are in two different musical lanes. Issues focuses more on incorporating different musical techniques into their music (more one on one). But Architects is just a straight forward band. Tough music about bigger life/world issues.

For someone who despises metalcore and hasn't enjoyed a record in that genre for more than three years, this record is fucking fantastic. Seriously this is great. Five stars.
