British metalcore titans ARCHITECTS have announced the release of their forthcoming studio album, “The Sky, The Earth & All Between”, set to drop on February 28, 2025, via Epitaph Records. To accompany the announcement, the band unveiled “Whiplash”, the third single from the highly anticipated record.
True to its name, the track delivers head-spinning intensity, blending heavy instrumentation with stomping rock riffs and furious screams from vocalist Sam Carter. Known for creating massive sonic landscapes, ARCHITECTS once again bring a brutal, circle-pit anthem with “Whiplash”, featuring one of their catchiest choruses alongside a bone-crushing metalcore breakdown.
A cinematic video for “Whiplash” shot in Slovenia accompanies the release.
Drummer Dan Searle says: “We’ve long admired director ‘Specter’ for his work with RAMMSTEIN so it was a pleasure to bring him in for this song to create something for us. His visual concept gave life to the words in a unique way that may create more questions than answers, but sometimes that’s the beauty in art. ‘Whiplash’ marks the beginning of a new era for ARCHITECTS. It is a song that speaks of tribalism, of a deepening chasm that lies between human beings based simply on opinions and beliefs. It gave us the opportunity to explore these concepts in a way that we haven’t before and for the first time in a while it gave us fuel to write something truly ferocious”.
Sam Carter adds: “We’re so happy to be back and to be releasing a song that we love so much, it’s us at our very best and we think it’ll be a fan favorite.”
The Sky, The Earth & All Between will mark ARCHITECTS’ eleventh studio album, with “Whiplash” showcasing a striking blend of raw intensity and soaring, arena-ready melodies. The track offers an exciting glimpse into what the band has in store for the New Year. The album’s journey began with the release of its first single, “Seeing Red,” last December, followed by the second single, “Curse,” in April. Together, the two tracks have already garnered an impressive 70 million streams.
