Metalcore titans Architects have dropped their latest single, “Blackhole”, another taste of their 11th studio album, The Sky, The Earth & All Between, (set to release on February 28 via Epitaph Records) and perhaps their heaviest yet!
Accompanied by a jaw-dropping cinematic music video filmed in California, “Blackhole” pulls no punches with vocalist Sam Carter delivering a vicious array of screams and gutturals before launching into huge hook filled choruses. Musically it’s has all the technical prowess Architects have excelled at for the best part of 2 decades now, with huge detuned riffs, fast syncopated kick drum grooves and even a tasty guitar solo thrown in for good measure.
Speaking about the track, frontman Sam Carter shared, “So excited to have ‘Blackhole’ out, it’s one of my favorite songs from the album. The video is equally as intense as the song. We filmed at such a wild location, and we really are at the top of those buildings that you see. This is Architects at our most ferocious.”
Watch the jaw dropping music video here:
“Blackhole” follows the release of earlier singles “Whiplash,” “Curse,” and “Seeing Red,” all of which have garnered widespread acclaim and heightened anticipation for the album.
