British metalcore giants Architects announce their awaited new studio album, ‘The Sky, The Earth & All Between,’ will release February 28, 2025 via Epitaph Records. This will be the band's 11th studio album, with “Whiplash” delivering an intense fusion of power and stadium-swaying melody, offering a tantalizing preview of what’s to come from ‘The Sky, The Earth & All Between’ in the New Year. The band revealed the first single from the album, “Seeing Red” last December and second single, “Curse” in April this year. Both songs collectively amassed over 70 million streams to date. Since their last studio album in 2022, the critically acclaimed ‘the classic symptoms of a broken spirit’, the band have continued their stratospheric rise, establishing themselves as one of the most important rock bands to emerge from the UK. They have spent the last 12 months touring extensively, most notably as one of the personally chosen support acts on the Metallica tour as well as appearances at Louder Than Life, AfterShock, Mayhem, Download and a headline slot at Bloodstock Festival. They have also just announced a handful of dates in support of Linkin Park next Summer.
Split Chain - vocalist Roberto Martinez-Cowles, guitarists Oli Bowles and Jake Reid, bassist Tom Davies and drummer Aaron Black – have been making waves in the alternative scene with a brazen mixture of heavy influences they call “nu-gaze”. With just a handful a self-released tracks they reached over 10 Million streams independently and before joining the Epitaph family. After dropping their official label debut single “(Re)-Extract” feat Softcult, they were quick to be named the AltPress Breakout Artist Of The Month, earning additional nods of approval from Revolver, BrooklynVegan, Stereogum and more. Formed as a creative outlet while on the road to recovery from addiction, the band members came together in support of each other and cemented a deep bond over the healing power of music. By channeling their personal struggles into emotionally charged songs, they have connected with a growing fan base drawn to their vulnerability and honesty. “We were writing music as an escape, a distraction, to create what we wanted to listen to,” they explain. “We ended up loving what we had created so much, and from this, Split Chain was formed.”
