For Those That Wish To Exist is the ninth studio album by UK metalcore band Architects. The album features the singles “Animals,” “Black Lungs,” “Dead Butterflies,” and “Meteor.” The band premiered “Animals” and “Dead Butterflies” on their livestream from the Royal Albert Hall in November along with “Discourse Is Dead.”
Drummer and songwriter Dan Searle said the following via press release:
This album was me looking at our inability to change to a way of life that would sustain the human race and save the planet. […] I wanted to look in the mirror and ask ourselves the question of what are we going to do, as opposed to trying to point the finger at politicians. Change has to start on a personal level. The world has developed a culture of wanting someone else to deal with it, when we need to take our own responsibility. It has to start there.
