Feb 28, 2021Finally listening to it and honestly I don't see what people see in this album. It's so generic and boring even when a song sounds promising it just turns into radio rock. Haven't had this much trouble getting through an album since i forced myself to listen to suicide silence self titled album.

Classic Rock MagazineMar 2, 2021The Brighton metalcore band turn their attention both outwards and inwards: ferocious, barely contained rage directed towards global dysfunction and the looming, ever-increasing threats to mankind and the notion of personal responsibility, taking control of destiny.

Feb 26, 2021For Those Who Wish to Exist proves Architects’ ability to oscillate between thoughtful, interesting, finely wrought compositions and gleefully hulking exercises in metal obviousness is still intact. The fact it often feels stultifying regardless proves turning climate anxiety into gratifying entertainment is a very difficult art to master.

Feb 26, 2021Essentially, this is an album aimed at everyone – which could explain why it’s so long and inconsistent – and while For Those That Wish to Exist is far from perfect, I do feel everyone can take some good things away from it.
