Archetypes Collide

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 & innovation in heavy music. Soaring vocals, melodies, & heavy grooves swirl with passion & precision. The Arizona upstarts deliver massive hooks, soaked in atmosphere, with creative energy & catchiness. Kyle Pastor (vocals), Brandon Baker & Jared Knister (guitars), Ky Sanders (bass), & Tyler Flamm (drums) put the same work ethic & focus into songwriting as they spent building the band from their local scene to the international stage. Unapologetic choruses & bang-your-head riffs collide. Striving for a deep connection with listeners first & foremost, songs like “My Own Device,” “What If I Fall,” “Parasite,” & “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, & Stranger Things-style retro synths, into a unique musical identity. A collection of singles & EPs drew a devoted fanbase & the attention of Oshie Bichar, bassist for Beartooth. Bichar enlisted his management, & the pair took Archetypes Collide under their wing. Soon after, SiriusXM’s Octane got behind songs like “Your Misery,” “Becoming What I Hate,” & “Above It All.” The band appeared on major festivals, toured with genre giants, and crafted an ambitious self-titled debut album for Fearless Records.
