Archives Released Video For New Single “Hivemind”

Northern Irish metalcore newcomers Archives drop new single / video ‘Hivemind’. The band have also announced a run of UK shows, including a support with Split Chain.

On the new single, the band comment: “‘Hivemind’ deals with the idea that we are all connected, as if humanity is sharing a collective consciousness through opinions & fake news, that we all as a society have consumed through the likes of social media. In many cases this shared information can have very negative results, with masses subscribing to the wrong opinion being sold as the right one.”

Hailing from Belfast, Archives have already picked up huge momentum across the UK. They have seen big support from BBC Introducing and have done multiple tours in the UK and beyond. For fans of Bad Omens, While She Sleeps, Architects, the new single is heavily infuenced by Cyberpunk (game) & The Matrix (movie), which can be heard in the production leaning into electronic elements & beats.
