Follow us on Spotify, and you'll never miss the hottest new tunes. Check out this week's Top 20…

Architects – Blackhole

Ooooooh, heavy Architects. Chonk-chonk. Smash smash. Very nice. And they're playing on a collapsing oil rig in the video. So, yeah, the latest look at the Brighton big riffers' upcoming The Sky, The Earth & All Between album is intense. Then it explodes into a massive chorus. Also awesome.

ALT BLK ERA – Run Rabbit

An electronically-charged bop telling the tale of a night out in which the sisters Beckett-Messam had to do a runner, and discovered the exhilaration of such things. Which is what rock 'n' roll's all about really, innit. Another solid goal from one of the most exciting new bands in the UK. 2025 is going to be massive for them.

Split Chain – I'm Not Dying To Be Here

Why are Bristol shoegaze-y hardcore mob Split Chain so hotly tipped at the mo? You could ask Thursday and Silverstein, with whom they're on tour in America right now. Or you could stick on this swirly, emotive new one and find out direct. See? Brilliant.
