The new album features collaborations with Royal Blood’s Mike Kerr and Biffy Clyro frontman Simon Neil, and the band’s Sam Carter has discussed the idea of more collaborations in the future.
“It doesn’t just have to be 15Ā tracks of me trying to doĀ 15 different types of vocals,” Carter told Kerrang!. “Itās nice to let someone else try as well.
“There’s a bunch of people Iād want to write tracks with in future,” he added āāIād love Phoebe Bridgers to sing on one of our songsā¦ orĀ Hayley Williams. Iād love to add aĀ female element to the next record. But then also people likeĀ Trent Reznor, or David Gilmour doing a guitar solo.”
Going on to discuss Simon Neil’s collaboration on the new album’s track ‘Goliath’, Carter said: “Although itās a metal song, fundamentally, it takes unexpected turns very suddenly, just like Biffy Clyro do.
“As is the bit in where the [orchestral] strings stab in sync with the guitars, which is really satisfying. And itās obviously cool to get the singer from one of the biggest British rock bands on your record screaming ā’They wouldn’t break their stride if we were burning alive’Ā before a massive breakdown, because no-one was expecting that.”
Reviewing ‘For Those That Wish To Exist’, NME wrote: “‘For Those That Wish To Exist’ isn’t exactly the kind of sonic reinvention one-time scene matesĀ Bring Me The Horizon pulled off with 2019’s ‘Amo’, but it pushes Architects into unexplored territory and a bold new future where even bigger venues and audiences surely await.”
