After the sad news that the band have cancelled all European appearances, scheduled to kick off with Download’s appearance last Saturday Architects now reveal that they will be scrapping their US tour as well.

Owing to a family emergency the band cancelled their European tour and now it has transpired that this will continue into the bands scheduled dates in the US. Set to support the band were Counterparts, Sworn In and Make Them Suffer. Hot on the heels of their biggest release to date its a shame that the band aren’t gearing up with the kind of momentum that touring over the latest album would have had. Either way whatever is happening in the Architects we hope the band’s families will recover quickly.

Here is a statement from the band’s Facebook :

“Due to a family emergency Architects are forced to cancel their upcoming North American tour. They hate to let you guys down and would appreciate all of your understanding and support. The band would like to ask that you respect their privacy during this difficult time. Refunds will be given at point of purchase.”
