Architects

Hot off the US release of Ruin, ARCHITECTS are now set to pay their first visit to American soil. The band whose sound was called "Absolutely bloody gargantuan!" by Kerrang will be taking part in the Cleansing The Nation tour alongside labelmates Suicide Silence, Emmure, Beneath the Massacre and After The Burial this fall.

Drummer Dan Searle comments on the upcoming trek: "We are ridiculously excited to be hitting the States for the first time! Until now our band's closest experience to being in America was standing on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, peeking across the water at Buffalo, NY!!! So we literally cannot wait to start playing American shows - its part of every British band's dream to tour in the US, and the fact that we get to do it alongside such big and crushing names as Suicide Silence and Emmure is simply awesome! We just recently finished recording our new album 'Hollow Crown' which we're really really stoked on and we're psyched to be shaking off the studio tan by playing some new tunes for American crowds at these shows, alongside some tracks off 'Ruin' of course! We love crowd interaction, it really feeds our live show, so if you know the words get down the front and we'll have a good fucking time! See you there!!!"

For those interested in seeing what an ARCHITECTS show looks like, be sure to check out this new clip that the band posted online from their European tour. One look at this massive ‘Wall of Death' from their recent show in Holland will have fans eagerly awaiting their chance to take in the band's crushing live show.
