All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us is the seventh studio album by British metalcore band Architects. It was released on 27 May 2016 globally through Epitaph Records; with the exception of UNFD in Australia and New Damage in Canada. The album peaked at number 109 on the Billboard 200, and reached number 15 on the UK Albums Chart.
It is the band's first album to feature guitarist Adam Christianson, following his addition to the band as a full-time member after his tenure as a touring guitarist through 2012 to 2015. It is also the band's final album to include founding guitarist and primary songwriter Tom Searle, before his death on 20 August 2016.[1]
Recorded in Gothenburg, Sweden, it was described by Blabbermouth.net as the "heaviest and darkest work to which Architects have ever put their name to [sic]" and "an album that challenges and progresses a genre long thought to have stagnated, and embraces its inspirations at a time when many rock and metal bands seek to hide them in search of mainstream acceptance".[2]
