It is set to be a busy summer for Architects with the festival season about to get underway. The band will feature on a number of festivals across the UK and Europe and now, have added three headlining shows of their own, sandwiched in between.
One of the hardest working bands on the rock scene, Architects have somehow found the time to add an exciting three headlining shows in Bulgaria, Poland and Hungary in July and August respectively. Continuing to tour in support of their latest release, The Classic Symptoms of a Broken Spirit, the European festival season is a perfect chance for the band to further develop their fanbase, while proving their arena-sized credentials.
The group released Classic Symptoms of a Broken Spirit, to a somewhat mixed reception from fans and critics alike. Hinting at the musical direction that they would take on 2021’s For Those that Wish to Exist, Classic Symptoms traded in much of the metallic aggression of earlier records for a more Bring Me the Horizon-esque electronic sound that have left the band having to endure, what is sometimes, alarming levels of backlash from fans.
None of this has deterred the band however, as Architects embarked on what is perhaps their biggest gigs yet-opening for Metallica on their European stadium tour run. Opening for one of rock’s truly legendary bands will no doubt add an illustrious feather in Architect’s cap, playing to die hard metal fans in sold out stadium venues.
A successful tour, serving as openers for Scottish alternative rock band Biffy Clyro followed soon after Classic Symptom’s release, with Architects exposing themselves to swathes of new fans who were introduced to their “brand” of heavy and perhaps opening up a hitherto untapped market that most heavier acts never come close to.
Architect’s festival run includes: Rock am Ring in Germany, Download Festival, Hellfest and Knotfest alongside their three headlining shows.
