WATCH THE EXCLUSIVE PREMIERE OF THE LIVE VIDEO FOR “MY OWN DEVICE LIVE FROM DALLAS” ONLY ON OUTBURN.COM
Arriving in recent years with powerful anthems driven by heartfelt emotion, ARCHETYPES COLLIDE quickly established itself as a band unafraid to blur the lines between safety and innovation in heavy music. Soaring vocals, melodies, and heavy grooves swirl with passion and precision. The Arizona upstarts deliver massive hooks, soaked in atmosphere, with creative energy and catchiness.
“Dallas has always been one of our favorite cities to play. The crowds are insane, the energy is contagious, food is awesome (shoutout to Buc-ee’s) and we have a lot of good friends we get to catch up with in the process. I love that we were able to capture the core of that energy with these live tracks and at the same time show how these songs can take on a whole new life in that atmosphere.” – Kyle Pastor
Kyle Pastor (vocals), Brandon Baker and Jared Knister (guitars), Ky Sanders (bass), and Tyler Flamm (drums) put the same work ethic and focus into songwriting as they spent building the band from their local scene to the international stage—Unapologetic choruses and bang-your-head riffs collide. Striving for a deep connection with listeners first and foremost, songs like “My Own Device,” “What If I Fall,” “Parasite,” and “Fade Away” combine loud bombast with intimate pop. ARCHETYPES COLLIDE demands repeated listening, mixing everything from Linkin Park and Bring Me The Horizon to The Chainsmokers, and Stranger Things-style retro synths, into a unique musical identity.
“One of the best experiences as a band is bringing songs from the studio to the stage. There’s an element of excitement and engagement that always seems to breathe a new life into these songs. From the mosh pits to the sing-a-longs, I love that we were able to capture that energy in these live tracks.” – Kyle Pastor
ARCHETYPES COLLIDE isn’t bound by preconceived notions or limitations. As Pastor explains simply, “Why not take every shot, in every direction, under the umbrella of hard rock and metal?”
