Architects Guitarist Tom Searle Loses Cancer Battle

Tom Searle, guitarist for Architects (the U.K. one, not the American one), has passed away following a three-year fight with melanoma skin cancer. He was only twenty-eight-years old. According to Metal Insider, Searle had still been performing with the band as recently as June. They just released a new album, All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us, in May.

Searle’s brother and Architects’ drummer, Dan, broke the tragic news via Facebook:

Everyone at MetalSucks’ thoughts are with Dan and the rest of Tom’s family and friends during this horrible time.
