ARCHITECTS RELEASE NEW SINGLE ‘CURSE’


Once again enthralling listeners with their signature sonic brutality, acclaimed British metalcore outfit Architects kick off 2024 with an explosive new single, ‘Curse.’ Produced by Jordan Fish, the track is available everywhere via Epitaph Records. In addition to the single, the band announces the anticipated second leg of their North American tour.
 
Instantly grabbing attention with a guttural scream by frontman Sam Carter, ‘Curse’ is rife with blast beats, massive guitar riffs, and Carter’s impressive vocal range as he switches between aggressive verses and a melodic chorus. The track is elevated by the pummeling bridge that sees the band embracing their roots with one of their heaviest, most eruptive breakdowns to date. Following the bridge with a stripped-back final pre-chorus, ‘Curse’ is a testament to the intensity and versatility that has earned Architects millions of fans across the globe.

Dream Theater Announce 40th Anniversary Europe Tour


Dream Theater turns 40 and is heading for a big tour to celebrate the anniversary, the European days of which will be published today. The An Evening With Dream Theater 40th Anniversary Tour also arrives in Finland, where the band will be seen at Espoo’s Metro Areena on November 6.

The tour starting in October is meaningful for the band in many ways, and a special reason for joy is Dream Theater traveling again in the lineup from 14 years ago, with drummer Mike Portnoy returning to the band’s ranks alongside James LaBrie, John Myung, John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess. Portnoy and the rest of the band parted ways after the Black Clouds & Silver Linings album released in 2009, so today’s tour news has been long awaited.
