Published:

The new track follows the colossal single ‘Animals’, which to date has amassed 6M+ streams and 3.5M+ YouTube views.

On ‘For Those That Wish To Exist’, ARCHITECTS tackle the biggest questions facing the future of our planet with their grandest, most expansive sonic offering yet. On this hugely ambitious, self-produced record, the band build upon their much loved, hallmark heavy and intense sound, by bringing in layers of electronics, orchestral strings, brass instruments and choirs

The record’s 15-tracks hang in a limbo between energising positivity that it is not too late to
correct our collective course, and a paralysing negativity of defeatism; where hope and
despondency are bed-fellows triggered daily by the simple act of existence. A reflection of
human condition, ‘For Those That Wish To Exist’ calls for all of us to rise to challenge
established models and strive for a collective betterment. Such concerns that have long been
prevalent in the music of a band who have continually championed and shared their platform
with causes such as Sea Shepherd, are outspoken critics of barbaric exercises such as fox
hunting, and who focus on sustainability in everything from their touring to merch production.
