UK metalcore outfit Architects have announced their highly-anticipated return to Australia, with a bunch of new headline dates around their upcoming appearance at Groovin The Moo festival.
Architects’ new Aussie headline tour will take place this May, kicking off in Brisbane before heading to Melbourne, Sydney and Fremantle. Along the way, the band will be support by their UNFD label mates, Melbourne rockers Ocean Grove.
Architects were in Australia last September, touring in support of Bring Me The Horizon. When the tour was cut short due to BMTH frontman Oli Sykes’ illness, Architects immediately started planning their own Aussie headline tour.
Following the death of their founding guitarist Tom Searle in 2016, Architects announced in October that they were entering a new “chapter“, with a new touring guitarist in the form of Josh Middleton from UK heavy metal band Sylosis. Tour promoter Live Nation has told Music Feeds that Architects are yet to confirm which guitarist will be joining them on their Australian tour.
The band are currently touring their seventh and latest album, All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us. Catch all of their upcoming Aussie tour dates, below.
