Following the tragic death of their guitarist Tom Searle, Architects will invite friend and Sylosis frontman Josh Middleton to fill in on guitar during their upcoming UK and European tour.
Sylosis issued a statement earlier today informing fans about their temporary break, but ensured them that they “will be back with a new record in the future.” You can read their statement below:
We wish to inform our fans that Sylosis will be taking a temporary hiatus. Most will know that Josh is close friends with Architects and he will be helping out with guitar duties for their upcoming tours on the 'All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us' cycle.
With respect to Sylosis fans, the band has decided to take some time off to allow Josh to focus on these commitments.
Rest assured, Sylosis will be back with a new record in the future but for now we hope we have your understanding and we'll see you all soon!
