It's terrible that as fans we didn't know Tom was still fighting his cancer, and now we reflect and listen to this whole album, we can see how much of an impact it was having on him, and it's heartbreaking.
I think Tom wanted the fans to value his music no matter under which circumstances he wrote it. And obviously they did, so he can be fucking proud of himself knowing the wonderful piece of art he created throughout his lifetime. There's no better way of saying "Fuck you cancer" than to continue to do what you love until the very end. RIP Tom!
I knew the first time he was talking about death, as Alan Watts wrote those thoughts about death also, but Tom was staring at death... the most incredible thing is that when I listened first time to Gone with the Wind, as I'm someone who suffer from depression, I thougth... how he can write things like these? it's just too intimate, too exposed... but as he said on the studio documentary.. "I found a way to be more exposed than ever"
This song hits way harder when you realise he wrote this knowing he was almost certainly going to die from his cancer. These are the lyrics of a man who knows his fate, and that's heartbreaking.
The quotes in this song are from British philosopher Alan Watts, a terrific man who often spoke about the nature of death. I'm sure Tom found great comfort in Alan Watts as Alan's lectures were often a logical, and comforting outlook on the ending of our lives. Rest easy Tom.
he was a philosopher for eastern theology and philosophy. wrote few books about it. it's beyond just the meaning of death. he's the sole reason i started to study about eastern philosophy, the ways of nature and what it means to be a part of cosmos. wonderful man who knows his way with words.
I often listen to old Alan Watts’ lectures when having trouble sleeping. There’s something so calming about his talks that eventually ease me right to sleep.
Love you too, pal. Maybe I'll start commenting again. Through comments, I've met so many wonderful people I'll never forget. People who made my day without noticing it. You're one of them.
Because we are all a big family. It's just... It's easy to forget about it because of all the greed, hatred and injustice (even unintentional) that we face in this world.
I'm in tears.. God.. Architects made me feel something again..After HER death everything has changed... I'll never forget you guys..I WILL NEVER forget you TOM! My condolences goes to Searle family and his friends. Stay strong EVERYONE!
Every time I hear the first second of Gravedigger, i feel reborn. No band could ever give me that feeling. I would just feel that they would be good forever.
My bestfriend died in a car crash about 2 months ago and this the song that his fiance played as he got lowered into his final resting place... rest in peace Jordan Burdick
@Jakob Silberhorn Dude I am so sorry about your friend; please tell his family and his fiancee I am sorry for them as well. I am sure your friend was a legend just like you...when I was only seven my father died in a motorcycle accident. A couple of years ago, when I was in 7th grade, my grandfather died from natural causes. :(
That 'Swansong' is perhaps the most heartbreaking as well as beautiful moment I've ever experienced through a song. It hits me hard, just imagining how Tom felt writing that. I can't even begin to think how it would feel, to know your days are numbered. One of the very best songs I've ever heard.
This entire album is something else when you realize Tom wrote it in the face of his own mortality. This song especially feels like him accepting his fate
That's so devastating. So sorry for you brother. We really need to find a fully working cure to this horrible disease as soon as possible. Stay strong my friend!
TSArtwork Thanks you so much! It's been one of the hardest weeks of my life, but it's comforting knowing that they're not in pain anymore! Can't wait to see them in the next life
Mcclechhh5 I dunno how lifes going for you so far, but I hope greif has been easy on you, much love to you, and I hope your friend finds his definition of peace ❤️
I never cry. I just cried hard. That is the beauty of this band -- they force you to have honest moments with yourself and others. Love you Architects, and love you Tom.
“When the veil lifts, how will I know? Will I see god?” If there is a god, I certainly hope Tom saw and spoke with him. RIP Tom. Absolutely never forgotten.
a week ago my grandfather passed away from cancer, this morning we held his funeral. he was a very religious man, in his last written words he wrote "Remember that you are dust and unto dust you shall return", in other words - be mindful of death. this hurts.
ugh this made me cry.. my grandad who was my everything, died from cancer on 14th feb (valentines day) this year. 6 months ago.... rip to your grandad koen. :'(
"It'ss a promise that you cannot break, Was your life worth dying for? The universe survives on give and take, Death is an open door" thats a very very powerfull line. Goosebumps ..
For being a former cancer . I will say , I can say I hold this piece of ART close to my heart ,I was 16 years old when I was diagnosed with glioblastoma a form of cancer that attacks the brain and spine. It saddens me to know Tom wasn't able to win his battle my heart goes out to your friends and your family . I hope your still jamming up there in the heavens.
I still can't believe it... This song makes so much sense now. The band really did Tom proud here to be able to perform something so personal written by Tom in such a meaningful way. Thanks for the video, mate. Rest easy Tom. Your work here is done. Memento Mori x
Minute 5:48 ... The "tick tack" and the lyrics when the son breaks, it's just a deep deep reflection of Tom about what was he going to find when he died...ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE...R.I.P. TOM SEARLE... :(
@@codymason97 I was eating while listening to this. Worst combo ever! I almost choke my self because of the tears. Incredible how year after year it still gets me to cry. RIP TOM!
First Lemmy, then Bowie and now Tom. I can't quite articulate how devastated I am, and have been this year. Another fantastic tribute which moved me to tears. Rest easy, lad.
It sure has been a woeful year all around. As Tom himself said, "If only we’d give the hard times the benefit of time to unfold, we’d see that we needed them and they led us to better things". It is hard to see how it's going to get better from now, but we can only hope it won't get much worse. Thanks for watching, Rest In Peace Tom.
im 28 years old!!! Im crying believe it or not!! im still thinking about it even thoe i was at the beach!!! i have never seen them live because i live in a small island called Cyprus!!! i been listening to Architects when i was 21! The first song i heart was Burried at sea!! i fell in love it and the whole album!! Since then Architects has been and will always be my favorite band!! There songs Have Help me with Difficult Times when i have Anger And Health Problems!!!! I have a tattoo On my arm With The architects Logo and also Written on my arm NAYSAYER!! Which Help me alot with me EX and my health problems!!! I love Them So much and Tom was My favorite Member because he wrote the Lyrics and the songs!!!!! And That smile that he has in every video Interview That you never forget!!! Tom You were one of my favourite musicians of all time, and have helped me in a way I feel I could never repay you for. Rest in peace, I hope you're still out there somewhere! Your name carries more than disease // A symbol of man brought to his knees!!!
I could not even cry. Because I shocked so much. Just like a few month ago Christina. It was just like dream. And this one is just too hard to believe.
bloody hell same oi! plus in feb on valentines day my grandad died, then 2 weeks later my best friend from since i was like 9 til when i was like 15 died (im now 18, we never fell out , i just shut him away when my boyfriend died) :( and yeah so that then christina now tom.. and now my grandma on other side of family hass been in hospital for 2 days dying.... fuck 2016...
Really makes you realize ANYONE you look at can be battling their own illnesses. You look at Tom and you'd never know he ever had cancer just by looking at him...
A lot of good musicans passed away but none of them touched me more then Toms passing... you can see in his face that he loved to make his music and somehow he looks like a nice humble dude... at least his art will life forever.
This is a song everyone needs to hear. No matter what background. Its humbling. At the very least all we have life and death in common. Lets make life a wonderful journey for every one.
Yeah this 8 minute masterpiece puts lots of things into perspective, It really humbles you and makes you more receptive about your own future. RIP Tom and thank you.
I just lost my best friend today. He unfortunately lost his fight with cancer as well. Saying goodbye to him was one of the hardest things that I have ever had to do. It is one of those things that is unimaginable, and hard to grasp why they have left and moved onto the next life. If any of you ever feel alone, don't. There is always somebody there for us, who love's us. Even in the darkest of hours.
I can't listen to this without being brought down to a smaller scale and just realize how fragile everything is. I feel so bad for his death, and this song shows that he knew his death was coming and still had the bravery to commit to his love (music) until death. Such respect for Tom and his will forever be missed and remembered by all of his fans. Rest in peace Tom, I hope you're at peace.
This is honestly beautiful man. Yesterday I saw Architects in Cologne and it absolutely blew my mind. To see them obviously struggling but still carrying out their dedication to Tom is heartbreaking. As Sam talked about him I witnessed, for the first time in my life, a venue being completely silent, it was one of these rare full-body gossebump moments. You also did great with this one, thank you for this and keep your work up.
I just saw them on the US tour. The passion they put on the stage and the passion the audience sang along with was absolutely haunting. It's like I could feel Tom there smiling.
I still remember this night in cologne, I will never forget it. Like you said when the whole crowd went silent after Sam started talking about the tragic loss of Tom, I have never witnessed this before and after this concert, everyones thoughts were focusing on Tom and it was whisper silent.
5 years now 😭 I'm bawling re-watching this video. I just finished a T//S heart tattoo on myself so I'll never forget. Architects will forever be my favorite band. RIP Tom, you're so very missed. 🖤
this songs makes me want to fight more and more. Never giving up until eveything is collapsing. Swimming while i m starting to drown Rising when people say you cant. I want to succed everything i do I want to live even more everytime i listen to this song
I've lost two of my loved ones because of cancer. We fought through stages desperation, rage, hoplessness and suicide attempts. We were helpless; and at the same time clinged for even the smalest crumb of hope. I've never ever experienced something artistic, that comes close to the feelings we experienced, when we faced the unevitablebe exit process. I am thankfull for the band they found the words I could not. Thank you for the upload TSArtwork. This one brought some relief.
It’s been 8 years since my cousin Amber passed from brain cancer. And this song makes me reflect on the frailty of life and I’m so thankful to still have mine. RIP Amber Sabala and Tom Searle. Gone but never forgotten
USA resident here. thank you my brother from overseas. we ALL love you too. the people of the world are with you and your people. Stay strong, you are amazing!
@@anonymous0s0egion British guy here, I love you guys, hope you are all doing well and staying happy. We are one big family. That's the only way we can pass through life gracefully and submit to its inevitably. Lots of love.
I love playing this song, the intro riff is simple but beautiful, chords in the chorus are just such a nice progression too, they feel nice to play, with no 'mad' stretches or over the top technicality, it's the WAY that they're played, even in the staccato riffs, they're all felt as opposed to planned. Then the accents you hear soaring above, that was Tom's way of angelically singing through this album, not so much his ghost but just his soul, it's not going anywhere, it's in the music itself. as with the drums in the ending, and the bass, they're not pretentious, the instrumentation is just pummelling, it's a final show of force and catharsis for every man in that band. Sam's vocals from a sombre, almost tearful clean in the beginning to his unrelenting roar from the ticking of time and "Swan Song", which I've no doubt that he would've pushed all he could muster into doing. This song is like few others I've ever heard and simply put it makes me feel strange, I've played, sung and listened to this song more times than I can count. this is a powerful requiem that helps cement this album as perhaps the genre-defining pinnacle.
я понял, откуда в песнях Architects такие эмоции. как они так точно передавали гнев, отчаяние, ярость и надежду. не желая взваливать на кого-то даже часть своей боли, Том давал ей полный выход в своей музыке
A wonderful tribute. This is such a sad song now we know the truth about what Tom and his bandmates were going through when they wrote it. Make your life worth dying for, people.
My mother survived cancer, her sister didn't. An old classmate survived it, a family friend since I was 12 years old didn't. My deepest condolences, to all of you close to Tom. So I will take the opportunity to tell you that "All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us" saved me from something else, it saved me from myself. It saved me from giving up. It was release 9 days after my 31st birthday, and I consider it one of the best albums of... It means the world. Stay strong. Never give up, never give in.
My grandparents dog just passed away and i was really really close with that dog. Ive known him from the first day he came to my grandparents house as a little pup. In the night he came lying next to me when i was small because i couldnt sleep and he watched over me as i grew up, even as the small pup he was back then. Its hard to realize that he is gone now, and that i wont ever be able to see him again. Even tho he was just a dog, he was and will always be my best friend. Balto, ull always be in my heart
The lyrics were powerful when I first heard on the album's release, but now, sadly, they've got a whole new depth I really wish they didn't have. Fantastic video, it's just a serious shame it had to be made.
No matter how often I listen to the songs Tom wrote, and the lyrics he wrote... I miss him. I still remember the day Dan shared the news. I was heartbroken, even though I never met Tom. Some day I will.
Очень тяжело смотреть этот клип, особенно под этот трек. Внутри все сжалось, я будто прочувствовал всю трагедию и тяжесть потери этого человека. Пусть земля тебе будет пухом, Том.
im not architects fan ( yet ) but I knew of them and I knew of Toms struggle , I remember seeing the news on Facebook , may god bless you all grieving over this unfortunate loss , dont hate me because im not a fan , I came here to listen to this beautiful song and send my respects and condolences , Rest In Peace Tom
Tom not just inspired me as a musician he inspired me as a person. Through the lyrics he wrote I was able to think and believe as a human being. Rest in peace Tom Searle, you will never be forgotten.
This song is so heartbreaking. It's so sad, beautiful and intense. Hearing it while I see his images, his smile, made me want to hug him desperately, to somehow bring him back, to somehow make him feel well, to cure him. I know I can't, but is too hard, I admire so much this guy, I'm so thankful for everything he did. Architect's lyrics are part of myself. I love you so much, Thomas Searle. Thank you for everything you did to us. You will live forever through your music. Rest in peace, my hero.
When i read Toms History of Cancer my eyes filled with Tears. He wrote 2 Albums and played a huge amount of Shows while having plenty of surgerys. Every Person who stands 100% for his music and his fans even when it comes to an end ist a real life hero Rest in piece Tom, hope you keep shredding as you did all your short life
That was one of the most heartbreaking and real things I’ve ever experienced…. … I got into Architects the record before this one, and the news broke, and I listened to part of the record, and I didn’t come back for anything else, and that was because it was too much. Life has been too much since this record. But, I wanted to take the time now, to say that this is one of the most heart rendering and beautiful things I’ve seen, and I think the music and the video are equally important. ❤️🩹❤
If this was the only song Tom had ever written, this in itself is the most beautiful mind altering song that I've ever heard. It's so straight forward when you realize what happened with his cancer. I hope in his final moments Tom didn't have any doubts if he left his mark on the world. This song is enough to prove that. Absolutely beautiful
+chris evans He wrote most of the Architects' songs, I believe. But he was still a wonderful songwriter. I will forever be grateful for him and Architects for making wonderful music that really got to me. Made me think. Made me feel better. Just something I always have.
Awesome, I can agree on that! Gone With the Wind is pretty darn good too. "My friend, hope is a prison!" Behind the Throne and Doomsday is also among my favourites. Daybreaker has good songs, too. I like The Here and Now's songs a lot too. What other albums of theirs do you like?
Oh my god. I just heard the news today and still cant believe it. So sad, he was such a great musician. His deaths gives a such a different view on this song now. Much love to his friends and family and Rest in Peace Tom :(
Wow, this is an amazing video! I still can't believe Tom is gone, it's so heartbreaking. 23.October they are playing in Norway, that will be my first Architects concert, i bought my ticket the day they announced the tour and the tickets went on sale. It's gonna be a special concert, since 23.Oct is Toms birthday. i dont know if i can handle this, i'm starting to cry just thinking of it. I've listened to Architects the last three-four years since discovering them. "All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us" is so fucking amazing i cant describe it. Tom left us with so many amazing lyrics and music. Rest in Peace, Tom Searle. Gone but never forgotten. Your memory will live on forever through the music you created with Architects. I will honour your work and your lyrics by singing them out as loud as i can when you come to Norway. A true legend. I love you so much, you & Architects helped me so much, and know i can't get the chance to thank you in person. :( #FUCKCANCER Tom Searle - Legend.
This break my heart, he's in peace now and wherever you are Tom, you always are going to be a hero. I cannot explain how many times their music has helped me, they never make us feel alone and im so thankfull for that. Love this band. (Sorry for my english)
Thanks a lot my friend! Humbled to hear that. I'm not really ready to compare any of my work to Tom's right now, his talent and ingenuity in his field is unmatchable. Still, I am very glad you liked it that much. I tried to give it everything I got. Rest in peace Tom.
I always planned on getting an Architects tattoo, but now I'm getting it done in a couple weeks. Getting the A logo with the lyrics from C.A.N.C.E.R of ''Find a little light and hold it close, don't lose sight on what matters most'' This is a beautiful for a very meaningful song. We love you Tom, rest easy.
I can't believe it. I'm actually tearing up hearing about the news. Him as well as whole band were the ones who opened my mind and made me love music. They were my biggest inspiration and are one of my favorite bands of all time. Tom, although I have never met you, I want to thank you for the music you have made. They've really helped me though my life's lows and you will forever leave in impact in my life. Rest easy :)
The gap at 5:30 on wards gives me the chills every time. It just reminds me of Tom's passing then when it comes back in with swansong, its as if he's come back to live on eternally through his music. This song is a absolute masterpiece!
Holy fuck now I get why Tom wrote this. The message this song reflects is basically live life at its fullest because you can die at the most unexpected moment. Can someone tell me what Alan Watts is trying to say at the end? "You can't hang onto yourself. You don't have to try not to hang onto yourself. It can't be done, and that is salvation" Thanks Tom Searle for everything, may your soul rest in peace.
What the quote at the end of the song means, essentially, is that you cannot hang onto yourself because you will die. Realizing that you will die is salvation. Memento Mori.
Yeah this. You cannot fight death. You don't have to try to fight death, because it can't be done. Realizing it will give you peace and salvation and will set you free.
Oh wow after hearing Holy Hell I decided to go back through their discography and this is the first song in a long time that has given me legit goosebumps, especially from 5:53. While I didn't know of the band when Tom was alive, this alongside some songs from Holy Hell makes me feel his loss. I hope you're resting easy Tom you truly were one of the greats.
Listening to this song, and the entire album is both amazing and quite hard at the same time. This Saturday 7/21/18 is the 3rd anniversary of a very very good friends untimely death by suicide. Its a terrible day for me and so many other's who's lives were touched by him. Tom you lyrics are in a league of their own. Thank you for sharing them and helping me cope. RIP Tom Searle.
Just lost my best friend suddenly. It’s hard to listen to this without crying my eyes out. She was young, beautiful and had her whole life ahead of her. Nothing can heal this pain but time. This and Doomsday have been my go to songs since and have helped me to grieve. I miss her so much already. 💜
@@youngcalisthenics Thank you for asking. Things haven’t been great but I’m still alive! My mum no longer speaks to me or even text. She’s got something wrong but won’t accept any help, then my partner of 6 years cheated on me. I also went no contact with my brother after he said my problems are unimportant (literally) it’s been a real shitty few years but I’m hustling to get my lil printing business up and running and really feel like I found my niche there.
@@chaddavis2992 I know this is a cliche cringey thing to say but I have to take care of myself because no one else will. The three people (my friend who passed, my mum, and my ex) Who were there for emotional support have all but gone. Life is so challenging at times!
They aren't necessarily heartless, Just ignorant. They don't understand the meaning or they just don't like the genre of music in which is conveying the meaning. As long as many others can enjoy & empathise with the track then the Architects have done there job, Which I am certain is what has happened.
Vulture Step I can understand not liking the music, but I don't think that this is the right video for that. This was a tribute video for Tom, who passed away from cancer. I see your point though.
I only discovered Architects after Tom passed away. It's a bit strange to discover such incredible riffs and composition from a young man who's no longer with us. Also it's really sad to see how some of the "fans" have been so volatile and resentful toward the surviving members. Awful remarks like "Tom would be rolling in his grave if he saw what kind of music you were making".
I agree completely! The boys processed his death and continued honouring his legacy, yet still pursuing new sounds and themes. Nothing but respect for the band! Tom lives in us forever, so does Architects.
I've literally just begun putting my ears towards this band and I am impressed even without this song which hit home directly... I'm 34- and a two time cancer survivor... My heart goes out to Tom, his loved ones, and all the other individuals across this world who bear the burdens (whether directly or indirectly) of the misfortune associated with all disease/disability/etc. in general, not just cancer... RIP buddy - I extend best wishes to your friends and family
shame to loose such a talented musician go so young but i feel the new album and Architects in general is definitely one hell of a good way to go out and i guarantee me and many others will think of Tom for years.
Its amazing how this song is so deep, I can feel the pain in his voice. I dont know why death can be scary and magical at the same time. Its a fuck illusion. Rest in peace, Tom.
Thanks, Tom and the Architects for everything you've done. It's outrageous that I only got into them after Tom's passing. Thanks to the songs for making me think deeply about my decisions. Thanks to the songs for making me feel things. Thanks to the songs for bringing me to a whole other world. I don't know what I would have done if I did not have Architects or Bring Me The Horizon.
The melody of every part of the song is on point about the feeling of going through event of your life like having the dentist remove your tooth or injection as a kid. It's like that zipline kid captioned, "going through a spiritual awakening." In this case, Tom's passing. First part is slow - meaning the they dropped the bomb on him and his world is starting to slow down. Verses and chorus is like the feeling of panic and hopelessness. Alan Watt's quote is the need to cope and forcing to accept fate. 4:03 is like the time has come and youre feelin all hyperventilated. Seconds before "swan song", it went slow - the feeling of readiness. You get the idea after that. This track finally grew on me. It's such a beautiful song. RIP Tom Searle
As above, so below Dismantled piece by piece, what's left will not decease As within, so without The seasons bring relief Let me live and die in peace I will be consumed, returned into the earth Only passing through, nothing left to hold on to Like the thaw against the snow, into the undertow Cut the chord and cast me out Cast me out It's a promise that you cannot break Was your life worth dying for? The universe survives on give and take Death is an open door It's a promise that you cannot break Was your life worth dying for? The universe survives on give and take Decay is the only law As above, so below Dismantled piece by piece, what's left will not decease As within, so without The seasons bring relief Just let me live and die in peace It'll wear you down, through skin and bone It's as if my mind has a mind of it's own It'll wear you down, through skin and bone It's as if my mind has a mind of it's own When my heart skips two beats (I am hidden deep. Fast asleep) The sea will part, where oceans meet Finally complete It's a promise that you cannot break Was your life worth dying for? The universe survives on give and take Death is an open door It's a promise that you cannot break Was your life worth dying for? The universe survives on give and take Decay is the only law Swan song A declaration of endlessness I swear I will not look back, as I return into the black When the veil lifts, how will I know? How will I know? Will I see God? As above, so below Dismantled piece by piece, what's left will not decease As within, so without The seasons bring relief Just let me live and die in peace
what a pure masterpiece, from a simply magic band. Each listen is a therapy ! RIP Tom, and be sure that i find in you what i need to get better every day.
If this does not inspire you to hug your loved ones that bit tighter, appreiciate life and go out and do some good with our limited amount of time we have then nothing will!! RIP Tom, incredible work!!
This is such a beautiful tribute, we will all miss him so much and it's amazing to see how all the fans come together to honour him... We will never forget you tom, rest in peace
This tribute made me cry. This is a really good job, thanks for it. Tom, you were an incredible musician. Thanks for every beautiful song you made. Rest in peace.

2.understand the meaning of what Tom wrote

It's terrible that as fans we didn't know Tom was still fighting his cancer, and now we reflect and listen to this whole album, we can see how much of an impact it was having on him, and it's heartbreaking.
I agree. I feel dumb for not realising the first time.
therealgandy1 As far as we knew, the melanoma was cut out. I thought these songs were just about a dying world, using an organism as an analogy.
yeah now I know why it sucked so much
I think Tom wanted the fans to value his music no matter under which circumstances he wrote it. And obviously they did, so he can be fucking proud of himself knowing the wonderful piece of art he created throughout his lifetime. There's no better way of saying "Fuck you cancer" than to continue to do what you love until the very end.
RIP Tom!
I knew the first time he was talking about death, as Alan Watts wrote those thoughts about death also, but Tom was staring at death... the most incredible thing is that when I listened first time to Gone with the Wind, as I'm someone who suffer from depression, I thougth... how he can write things like these? it's just too intimate, too exposed... but as he said on the studio documentary.. "I found a way to be more exposed than ever"
This song hits way harder when you realise he wrote this knowing he was almost certainly going to die from his cancer. These are the lyrics of a man who knows his fate, and that's heartbreaking.
The quotes in this song are from British philosopher Alan Watts, a terrific man who often spoke about the nature of death. I'm sure Tom found great comfort in Alan Watts as Alan's lectures were often a logical, and comforting outlook on the ending of our lives.
Rest easy Tom.
Swagcat thanks for this info.
Alan Watts is very good.
Alan watts is my god, i love him so much, i hope he rests in peace now, as well as Tom.
he was a philosopher for eastern theology and philosophy. wrote few books about it. it's beyond just the meaning of death. he's the sole reason i started to study about eastern philosophy, the ways of nature and what it means to be a part of cosmos. wonderful man who knows his way with words.
I often listen to old Alan Watts’ lectures when having trouble sleeping. There’s something so calming about his talks that eventually ease me right to sleep.
"Will I see God" hits so hard, such deep words.
We miss you Tom. Rest easy
This song and reading comments make me feel odd, really emotional, like we are a one big family, love you guys
Adrian I love you to.
Peace and love yo
Love you too, pal. Maybe I'll start commenting again. Through comments, I've met so many wonderful people I'll never forget. People who made my day without noticing it. You're one of them.
Because we are all a big family. It's just... It's easy to forget about it because of all the greed, hatred and injustice (even unintentional) that we face in this world.
If liberal folks were more tolerant, this would be more true.
Still one of the best songs ever written
Bohemian rhapsody of Metalcore
'let me live and die in peace'
Pure chills.
Ikr
I'm in tears.. God.. Architects made me feel something again..After HER death everything has changed... I'll never forget you guys..I WILL NEVER forget you TOM! My condolences goes to Searle family and his friends. Stay strong EVERYONE!
Every time I hear the first second of Gravedigger, i feel reborn. No band could ever give me that feeling. I would just feel that they would be good forever.
John Yang Exactly!
+John Yang I get that same feeling my friend. R.I.P. Tom.
+John Yang man you are fucking right. architects just make such an emotional and touching music, it goes in your heart.
We all miss you tom
My bestfriend died in a car crash about 2 months ago and this the song that his fiance played as he got lowered into his final resting place... rest in peace Jordan Burdick
So sorry to hear that man. Life is a fucking insurpassable challenge. We gotta stay as one big family.
Big love for you and your best friend, from me.
@Jakob Silberhorn Dude I am so sorry about your friend; please tell his family and his fiancee I am sorry for them as well. I am sure your friend was a legend just like you...when I was only seven my father died in a motorcycle accident. A couple of years ago, when I was in 7th grade, my grandfather died from natural causes. :(
That 'Swansong' is perhaps the most heartbreaking as well as beautiful moment I've ever experienced through a song. It hits me hard, just imagining how Tom felt writing that. I can't even begin to think how it would feel, to know your days are numbered. One of the very best songs I've ever heard.
A truly unique moment, bringing emotions we'll probably never experience ourselves
This is and forever will be Architects greatest work.
This entire album is something else when you realize Tom wrote it in the face of his own mortality. This song especially feels like him accepting his fate
One of my oldest friends died the same day with the same form of cancer as Tom. Rest easy, André and Tom, you'll both be deeply missed.
That's so devastating. So sorry for you brother. We really need to find a fully working cure to this horrible disease as soon as possible. Stay strong my friend!
TSArtwork Thanks you so much! It's been one of the hardest weeks of my life, but it's comforting knowing that they're not in pain anymore! Can't wait to see them in the next life
Cancer is truly the worst, stay strong lad. YNWA
Zach Beckwith Thank you, I really appreciate it. YNWA

I dunno how lifes going for you so far, but I hope greif has been easy on you, much love to you, and I hope your friend finds his definition of peace ❤️
I never cry. I just cried hard. That is the beauty of this band -- they force you to have honest moments with yourself and others. Love you Architects, and love you Tom.
Your statement hits strong!
These guys have planted the seed of humanity in all of us.
Same dude... this song breaks me every time i listen to it.
Seven years, countless listens, this still breaks me. Incredible.
Imagine Sam recording these lyrics knowing Tom is probably going to die soon...just wow
Then you know where the power comes from. PURE emotion.
“When the veil lifts, how will I know?
Will I see god?”
If there is a god, I certainly hope Tom saw and spoke with him.
RIP Tom. Absolutely never forgotten.
a week ago my grandfather passed away from cancer, this morning we held his funeral. he was a very religious man, in his last written words he wrote "Remember that you are dust and unto dust you shall return", in other words - be mindful of death.
this hurts.
Wow, your gramps was a really deep person, I feel sorry for your lost, heaven has two more great names now, stay strong.
Thank you very much
I'm sorry for you, stay strong
ugh this made me cry.. my grandad who was my everything, died from cancer on 14th feb (valentines day) this year. 6 months ago.... rip to your grandad koen. :'(
I am so sorry to hear that, but thank you very much for your kind words

"It'ss a promise that you cannot break, Was your life worth dying for? The universe survives on give and take, Death is an open door" thats a very very powerfull line. Goosebumps ..
For being a former cancer . I will say , I can say I hold this piece of ART close to my heart ,I was 16 years old when I was diagnosed with glioblastoma a form of cancer that attacks the brain and spine. It saddens me to know Tom wasn't able to win his battle my heart goes out to your friends and your family . I hope your still jamming up there in the heavens.
I still can't believe it...
This song makes so much sense now.
The band really did Tom proud here to be able to perform something so personal written by Tom in such a meaningful way.
Thanks for the video, mate.
Rest easy Tom. Your work here is done.

His work isn’t done, his sound and influence in their music will always be a mark of his presence. Rest In Peace Tom ❤️
Minute 5:48 ... The "tick tack" and the lyrics when the son breaks, it's just a deep deep reflection of Tom about what was he going to find when he died...ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE...R.I.P. TOM SEARLE... :(
Watching this 3 years later still breaks my heart. Rest in peace, dear friend.
I’m here today ugly crying
@@codymason97 I was eating while listening to this. Worst combo ever! I almost choke my self because of the tears. Incredible how year after year it still gets me to cry. RIP TOM!
First Lemmy, then Bowie and now Tom. I can't quite articulate how devastated I am, and have been this year. Another fantastic tribute which moved me to tears.
Rest easy, lad.
It sure has been a woeful year all around. As Tom himself said, "If only we’d give the hard times the benefit of time to unfold, we’d see that we needed them and they led us to better things". It is hard to see how it's going to get better from now, but we can only hope it won't get much worse. Thanks for watching, Rest In Peace Tom.

Rest in peace, I hope you're still out there somewhere! Your name carries more than disease // A symbol of man brought to his knees!!!
Dude you bring me to tears
Beautiful written, bro! ♥
I could not even cry. Because I shocked so much. Just like a few month ago Christina. It was just like dream. And this one is just too hard to believe.
bloody hell same oi! plus in feb on valentines day my grandad died, then 2 weeks later my best friend from since i was like 9 til when i was like 15 died (im now 18, we never fell out , i just shut him away when my boyfriend died) :( and yeah so that then christina now tom.. and now my grandma on other side of family hass been in hospital for 2 days dying.... fuck 2016...
+Shörlogg aw.. i cried writing that haha
Really makes you realize ANYONE you look at can be battling their own illnesses. You look at Tom and you'd never know he ever had cancer just by looking at him...
A lot of good musicans passed away but none of them touched me more then Toms passing... you can see in his face that he loved to make his music and somehow he looks like a nice humble dude... at least his art will life forever.
This is a song everyone needs to hear. No matter what background. Its humbling.
At the very least all we have life and death in common. Lets make life a wonderful journey for every one.
Yeah this 8 minute masterpiece puts lots of things into perspective, It really humbles you and makes you more receptive about your own future. RIP Tom and thank you.
I just lost my best friend today. He unfortunately lost his fight with cancer as well. Saying goodbye to him was one of the hardest things that I have ever had to do. It is one of those things that is unimaginable, and hard to grasp why they have left and moved onto the next life. If any of you ever feel alone, don't. There is always somebody there for us, who love's us. Even in the darkest of hours.
How are you today? I know grief knows no time
I can't listen to this without being brought down to a smaller scale and just realize how fragile everything is. I feel so bad for his death, and this song shows that he knew his death was coming and still had the bravery to commit to his love (music) until death. Such respect for Tom and his will forever be missed and remembered by all of his fans. Rest in peace Tom, I hope you're at peace.
This is honestly beautiful man. Yesterday I saw Architects in Cologne and it absolutely blew my mind. To see them obviously struggling but still carrying out their dedication to Tom is heartbreaking. As Sam talked about him I witnessed, for the first time in my life, a venue being completely silent, it was one of these rare full-body gossebump moments.
You also did great with this one, thank you for this and keep your work up.
I just saw them on the US tour. The passion they put on the stage and the passion the audience sang along with was absolutely haunting. It's like I could feel Tom there smiling.
I still remember this night in cologne, I will never forget it. Like you said when the whole crowd went silent after Sam started talking about the tragic loss of Tom, I have never witnessed this before and after this concert, everyones thoughts were focusing on Tom and it was whisper silent.
5 years now 😭 I'm bawling re-watching this video. I just finished a T//S heart tattoo on myself so I'll never forget. Architects will forever be my favorite band. RIP Tom, you're so very missed. 🖤
this songs makes me want to fight more and more.
Never giving up until eveything is collapsing.
Swimming while i m starting to drown
Rising when people say you cant.
I want to succed everything i do
I want to live even more everytime i listen to this song
One of my favorite video on the whole internet. Beautiful, we will all die a day.
see you on the other side 💜
Megan Aldous there is no other side
@@VictorAvilax sadly, that is most likely
I've lost two of my loved ones because of cancer. We fought through stages desperation, rage, hoplessness and suicide attempts. We were helpless; and at the same time clinged for even the smalest crumb of hope. I've never ever experienced something artistic, that comes close to the feelings we experienced, when we faced the unevitablebe exit process. I am thankfull for the band they found the words I could not. Thank you for the upload TSArtwork. This one brought some relief.
It’s been 8 years since my cousin Amber passed from brain cancer. And this song makes me reflect on the frailty of life and I’m so thankful to still have mine. RIP Amber Sabala and Tom Searle. Gone but never forgotten

мать жива?
I love playing this song, the intro riff is simple but beautiful, chords in the chorus are just such a nice progression too, they feel nice to play, with no 'mad' stretches or over the top technicality, it's the WAY that they're played, even in the staccato riffs, they're all felt as opposed to planned. Then the accents you hear soaring above, that was Tom's way of angelically singing through this album, not so much his ghost but just his soul, it's not going anywhere, it's in the music itself. as with the drums in the ending, and the bass, they're not pretentious, the instrumentation is just pummelling, it's a final show of force and catharsis for every man in that band. Sam's vocals from a sombre, almost tearful clean in the beginning to his unrelenting roar from the ticking of time and "Swan Song", which I've no doubt that he would've pushed all he could muster into doing. This song is like few others I've ever heard and simply put it makes me feel strange, I've played, sung and listened to this song more times than I can count. this is a powerful requiem that helps cement this album as perhaps the genre-defining pinnacle.
я понял, откуда в песнях Architects такие эмоции. как они так точно передавали гнев, отчаяние, ярость и надежду. не желая взваливать на кого-то даже часть своей боли, Том давал ей полный выход в своей музыке
A wonderful tribute.
This is such a sad song now we know the truth about what Tom and his bandmates were going through when they wrote it.
Make your life worth dying for, people.
My mother survived cancer, her sister didn't. An old classmate survived it, a family friend since I was 12 years old didn't. My deepest condolences, to all of you close to Tom. So I will take the opportunity to tell you that "All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us" saved me from something else, it saved me from myself. It saved me from giving up. It was release 9 days after my 31st birthday, and I consider it one of the best albums of... It means the world. Stay strong. Never give up, never give in.
Hope you're still well friend❤
My grandparents dog just passed away and i was really really close with that dog. Ive known him from the first day he came to my grandparents house as a little pup. In the night he came lying next to me when i was small because i couldnt sleep and he watched over me as i grew up, even as the small pup he was back then.
Its hard to realize that he is gone now, and that i wont ever be able to see him again. Even tho he was just a dog, he was and will always be my best friend. Balto, ull always be in my heart
2022 and still gives me the vibes. Love all of you and I hope this year treats you as well as you deserve 🖤🤟
im a new fan of architects but im still devastated by his passing. he wrties bloody good songs. this band are amazing. rip.
no one can watch this without crying...this is so fucking unfair, so young so talented so nice person
Is it just me or are the dudes screams beautiful?
Yes.
why would it just be you
When I am at my lowest, I return here to remember what we live for. Thank you Tom for all you gave us. #LiveForTom
The lyrics were powerful when I first heard on the album's release, but now, sadly, they've got a whole new depth I really wish they didn't have.
Fantastic video, it's just a serious shame it had to be made.
hurts even more when you remember that Tom wrote the lyrics to pretty much everything.
No matter how often I listen to the songs Tom wrote, and the lyrics he wrote... I miss him. I still remember the day Dan shared the news. I was heartbroken, even though I never met Tom. Some day I will.
Here after Architect's newest album, I'd like to think Tom would be proud :)
Очень тяжело смотреть этот клип, особенно под этот трек. Внутри все сжалось, я будто прочувствовал всю трагедию и тяжесть потери этого человека. Пусть земля тебе будет пухом, Том.
I just don't know what to say. Tears in my eyes. One of my favorite songs. Rest in peace Tom
im not architects fan ( yet ) but I knew of them and I knew of Toms struggle , I remember seeing the news on Facebook , may god bless you all grieving over this unfortunate loss , dont hate me because im not a fan , I came here to listen to this beautiful song and send my respects and condolences , Rest In Peace Tom
"may god bless you(...)", lol. Thoughts and pRaYeRs. :D

Tom not just inspired me as a musician he inspired me as a person. Through the lyrics he wrote I was able to think and believe as a human being. Rest in peace Tom Searle, you will never be forgotten.
Still in in 2020
This song is so heartbreaking. It's so sad, beautiful and intense.
Hearing it while I see his images, his smile, made me want to hug him desperately, to somehow bring him back, to somehow make him feel well, to cure him. I know I can't, but is too hard, I admire so much this guy, I'm so thankful for everything he did. Architect's lyrics are part of myself.
I love you so much, Thomas Searle. Thank you for everything you did to us. You will live forever through your music. Rest in peace, my hero.
When i read Toms History of Cancer my eyes filled with Tears. He wrote 2 Albums and played a huge amount of Shows while having plenty of surgerys. Every Person who stands 100% for his music and his fans even when it comes to an end ist a real life hero
Rest in piece Tom, hope you keep shredding as you did all your short life
This is such a beautiful piece of art. Thanks a lot for that.
God, I've never wished more for art to not have a reason to be created.
That was one of the most heartbreaking and real things I’ve ever experienced…. … I got into Architects the record before this one, and the news broke, and I listened to part of the record, and I didn’t come back for anything else, and that was because it was too much. Life has been too much since this record. But, I wanted to take the time now, to say that this is one of the most heart rendering and beautiful things I’ve seen, and I think the music and the video are equally important. ❤️🩹❤
If this was the only song Tom had ever written, this in itself is the most beautiful mind altering song that I've ever heard. It's so straight forward when you realize what happened with his cancer. I hope in his final moments Tom didn't have any doubts if he left his mark on the world. This song is enough to prove that. Absolutely beautiful
+chris evans He wrote most of the Architects' songs, I believe.
But he was still a wonderful songwriter. I will forever be grateful for him and Architects for making wonderful music that really got to me. Made me think. Made me feel better. Just something I always have.
@@bengal_tiger1984 I think you misunderstood what I was saying. I know this wasn't the only song he wrote but if it was, it would be enough
Sorry man, I misunderstood. But I agree. This will always be my favourite song. What about you?
@@bengal_tiger1984 all good man. This is definitely one of my favorites along with gone with the wind
Awesome, I can agree on that! Gone With the Wind is pretty darn good too. "My friend, hope is a prison!" Behind the Throne and Doomsday is also among my favourites. Daybreaker has good songs, too. I like The Here and Now's songs a lot too. What other albums of theirs do you like?
The beauty of dying is captured so well in both song and video here. Way to go to all involved.
Oh my god. I just heard the news today and still cant believe it. So sad, he was such a great musician. His deaths gives a such a different view on this song now. Much love to his friends and family and Rest in Peace Tom :(
Wow, this is an amazing video!
I still can't believe Tom is gone, it's so heartbreaking.
23.October they are playing in Norway, that will be my first Architects concert, i bought my ticket the day they announced the tour and the tickets went on sale.
It's gonna be a special concert, since 23.Oct is Toms birthday. i dont know if i can handle this, i'm starting to cry just thinking of it. I've listened to Architects the last three-four years since discovering them. "All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us" is so fucking amazing i cant describe it. Tom left us with so many amazing lyrics and music.
Rest in Peace, Tom Searle. Gone but never forgotten. Your memory will live on forever through the music you created with Architects. I will honour your work and your lyrics by singing them out as loud as i can when you come to Norway. A true legend.
I love you so much, you & Architects helped me so much, and know i can't get the chance to thank you in person. :( #FUCKCANCER
Tom Searle - Legend.
This break my heart, he's in peace now and wherever you are Tom, you always are going to be a hero. I cannot explain how many times their music has helped me, they never make us feel alone and im so thankfull for that. Love this band. (Sorry for my english)
This is incredible. As incredible as Tom's musicianship. RIP.
Also it's my fav song from Architects. I wish I could say I'm happy that you made a video. But considering the circumstances...
Thanks a lot my friend! Humbled to hear that. I'm not really ready to compare any of my work to Tom's right now, his talent and ingenuity in his field is unmatchable. Still, I am very glad you liked it that much. I tried to give it everything I got. Rest in peace Tom.
Nice profile picture
Finally built up the courage to watch this all the way through. A beautiful tribute, thank you.
I always planned on getting an Architects tattoo, but now I'm getting it done in a couple weeks. Getting the A logo with the lyrics from C.A.N.C.E.R of ''Find a little light and hold it close, don't lose sight on what matters most''
This is a beautiful for a very meaningful song. We love you Tom, rest easy.
I can't believe it. I'm actually tearing up hearing about the news. Him as well as whole band were the ones who opened my mind and made me love music. They were my biggest inspiration and are one of my favorite bands of all time. Tom, although I have never met you, I want to thank you for the music you have made. They've really helped me though my life's lows and you will forever leave in impact in my life. Rest easy :)
The gap at 5:30 on wards gives me the chills every time. It just reminds me of Tom's passing then when it comes back in with swansong, its as if he's come back to live on eternally through his music. This song is a absolute masterpiece!
Holy fuck now I get why Tom wrote this. The message this song reflects is basically live life at its fullest because you can die at the most unexpected moment.
Can someone tell me what Alan Watts is trying to say at the end?
"You can't hang onto yourself. You don't have to try not to hang onto yourself. It can't be done, and that is salvation"
Thanks Tom Searle for everything, may your soul rest in peace.
What the quote at the end of the song means, essentially, is that you cannot hang onto yourself because you will die. Realizing that you will die is salvation. Memento Mori.
Yeah this. You cannot fight death. You don't have to try to fight death, because it can't be done. Realizing it will give you peace and salvation and will set you free.
Oh wow after hearing Holy Hell I decided to go back through their discography and this is the first song in a long time that has given me legit goosebumps, especially from 5:53. While I didn't know of the band when Tom was alive, this alongside some songs from Holy Hell makes me feel his loss. I hope you're resting easy Tom you truly were one of the greats.
Listening to this song, and the entire album is both amazing and quite hard at the same time. This Saturday 7/21/18 is the 3rd anniversary of a very very good friends untimely death by suicide. Its a terrible day for me and so many other's who's lives were touched by him. Tom you lyrics are in a league of their own. Thank you for sharing them and helping me cope. RIP Tom Searle.
This is so much emotional song I've ever heard Tom you will always in our heart You always be my hero So young .....R.I.P Brother
Just lost my best friend suddenly. It’s hard to listen to this without crying my eyes out. She was young, beautiful and had her whole life ahead of her. Nothing can heal this pain but time. This and Doomsday have been my go to songs since and have helped me to grieve. I miss her so much already. 💜
Heyy man I'm so sorry to hear. Are you taking care of yourself these days?
How are you holding up now? Has life gotten any better?
@@youngcalisthenics Thank you for asking. Things haven’t been great but I’m still alive! My mum no longer speaks to me or even text. She’s got something wrong but won’t accept any help, then my partner of 6 years cheated on me. I also went no contact with my brother after he said my problems are unimportant (literally) it’s been a real shitty few years but I’m hustling to get my lil printing business up and running and really feel like I found my niche there.
@@chaddavis2992 I know this is a cliche cringey thing to say but I have to take care of myself because no one else will. The three people (my friend who passed, my mum, and my ex) Who were there for emotional support have all but gone. Life is so challenging at times!
@@chaddavis2992 Thanks for your kind words.
Who would be so heartless as to dislike this video?
They aren't necessarily heartless, Just ignorant. They don't understand the meaning or they just don't like the genre of music in which is conveying the meaning. As long as many others can enjoy & empathise with the track then the Architects have done there job, Which I am certain is what has happened.
Vulture Step I can understand not liking the music, but I don't think that this is the right video for that. This was a tribute video for Tom, who passed away from cancer. I see your point though.
I only discovered Architects after Tom passed away. It's a bit strange to discover such incredible riffs and composition from a young man who's no longer with us.
Also it's really sad to see how some of the "fans" have been so volatile and resentful toward the surviving members. Awful remarks like "Tom would be rolling in his grave if he saw what kind of music you were making".
I agree completely! The boys processed his death and continued honouring his legacy, yet still pursuing new sounds and themes. Nothing but respect for the band! Tom lives in us forever, so does Architects.
R.I.P Tom. Thank you for giving us some beautiful and powerful music.
I've literally just begun putting my ears towards this band and I am impressed even without this song which hit home directly... I'm 34- and a two time cancer survivor... My heart goes out to Tom, his loved ones, and all the other individuals across this world who bear the burdens (whether directly or indirectly) of the misfortune associated with all disease/disability/etc. in general, not just cancer... RIP buddy - I extend best wishes to your friends and family
shame to loose such a talented musician go so young but i feel the new album and Architects in general is definitely one hell of a good way to go out and i guarantee me and many others will think of Tom for years.
It takes a dozens of listens, but finally this song kicks you hard as nothing before. This is an art.
His amazing talent will live on in his music and in the fans that hold it so dear.
one of the best songs ever written for sure
Its amazing how this song is so deep, I can feel the pain in his voice. I dont know why death can be scary and magical at the same time. Its a fuck illusion. Rest in peace, Tom.
Thanks, Tom and the Architects for everything you've done. It's outrageous that I only got into them after Tom's passing. Thanks to the songs for making me think deeply about my decisions. Thanks to the songs for making me feel things. Thanks to the songs for bringing me to a whole other world. I don't know what I would have done if I did not have Architects or Bring Me The Horizon.
The melody of every part of the song is on point about the feeling of going through event of your life like having the dentist remove your tooth or injection as a kid. It's like that zipline kid captioned, "going through a spiritual awakening." In this case, Tom's passing.
First part is slow - meaning the they dropped the bomb on him and his world is starting to slow down. Verses and chorus is like the feeling of panic and hopelessness. Alan Watt's quote is the need to cope and forcing to accept fate. 4:03 is like the time has come and youre feelin all hyperventilated. Seconds before "swan song", it went slow - the feeling of readiness. You get the idea after that.
This track finally grew on me. It's such a beautiful song. RIP Tom Searle
As above, so below
Dismantled piece by piece, what's left will not decease
As within, so without
The seasons bring relief
Let me live and die in peace
I will be consumed, returned into the earth
Only passing through, nothing left to hold on to
Like the thaw against the snow, into the undertow
Cut the chord and cast me out
Cast me out
It's a promise that you cannot break
Was your life worth dying for?
The universe survives on give and take
Death is an open door
It's a promise that you cannot break
Was your life worth dying for?
The universe survives on give and take
Decay is the only law
As above, so below
Dismantled piece by piece, what's left will not decease
As within, so without
The seasons bring relief
Just let me live and die in peace
It'll wear you down, through skin and bone
It's as if my mind has a mind of it's own
It'll wear you down, through skin and bone
It's as if my mind has a mind of it's own
When my heart skips two beats
(I am hidden deep. Fast asleep)
The sea will part, where oceans meet
Finally complete
It's a promise that you cannot break
Was your life worth dying for?
The universe survives on give and take
Death is an open door
It's a promise that you cannot break
Was your life worth dying for?
The universe survives on give and take
Decay is the only law
Swan song
A declaration of endlessness
I swear I will not look back, as I return into the black
When the veil lifts, how will I know?
How will I know?
Will I see God?
As above, so below
Dismantled piece by piece, what's left will not decease
As within, so without
The seasons bring relief
Just let me live and die in peace
what a pure masterpiece, from a simply magic band. Each listen is a therapy ! RIP Tom, and be sure that i find in you what i need to get better every day.
If this does not inspire you to hug your loved ones that bit tighter, appreiciate life and go out and do some good with our limited amount of time we have then nothing will!! RIP Tom, incredible work!!
This song is so hauntingly beautiful
amazing work for an inspirational song. Architects wrote a gorgeous song and you made it much better. Good one man, keep it that way!
This is such a beautiful tribute, we will all miss him so much and it's amazing to see how all the fans come together to honour him... We will never forget you tom, rest in peace
Ангел, спустившийся с небес на мало лет для того, чтобы подарить нам прекрасное

This tribute made me cry. This is a really good job, thanks for it.
Tom, you were an incredible musician. Thanks for every beautiful song you made.
Rest in peace.
What a great guitarist and guy Tom was. 28 is far too young. :(
Jamming Architects all day in his memory.
This song gives me chills all over the place and I see I´m not the only one.
