Shortly after announcing their fifteenth (!!!) studio album Architects Of A New Weave, which will be released on June 5, 2026 via Napalm Records, EVERGREY follow up with the new single „Architects Of The New Weave“ – a dark manifesto accompanied by a visually impressive animated video.

Once again, EVERGREY prove their unmatched ability to combine timeless melodies with powerful riffs and profound lyrics. Even after more than 30 years of band history, the band still manages to surprise their loyal fan base with fresh, innovative impulses – without losing their unmistakable identity.
The new album Architects Of A New Weave will be released a few days before EVERGREY plays as special guest of heavy metal kings Iron Maiden on two selected dates of the „Run For Your Lives World Tour.“ It is a wake-up call, a leap into the unknown, burning worlds and echoing feelings of guilt, only to finally break free with unbridled power. It rejects self-pity and rises heavily and cinematically, without ever hiding in the darkness. EVERGREY deliver an album full of urgency, intensity, and transformation.
Tom S. Englund on „Architects Of The New Weave“: „‚Architects Of The New Weave‘ is the rousing first single from our 15th studio album – or the second powerful blow, if you consider ‚OXYGEN!‘ to be a standalone powerhouse. I’m not going out on a limb when I say this is a direct, energetic, uncompromising metal song.
It all started with Rikard Zander’s killer keyboard riff, which we developed into a compact but massive headbanger. When I wrote the keyboard line for the chorus, I had ‚Rainbow In The Dark‘ in mind – an epic inspiration that gives the song its timeless, rousing character. There are two guitar solos that alternate in classic old-school style – melodic and catchy. We can’t wait to play the song live! I’m sometimes torn about music videos: I love them as an art form, but often the images distract from the music itself.“
