British nu metal/post-hardcore mavens Don Broco have teamed up with Architects lead singer Sam Carter for their slamming new single, "True Believers." The track and accompanying music video come from the band's new album, Nightmare Tripping, the follow-up to 2021's Amazing Things. The album, which drops today, March 27th, marks the band's first release with their new label, Fearless Records. The track takes direct aim at the fascism and white supremacy that's metastasizing on both sides of the Atlantic.
Blind faith, lies and hate / Proud boys and girls looking for an escape / Supremacist scum, fucking get in the sea / How the fuck they saluting on daytime TV?
Lead singer Rob Damiani this to say about the genesis of the politically charged track:
We started writing this song back in 2024 during the Southport Riots. At the same time the Olympics were on, and flicking between them and the news was an alarming contrast between celebratory British patriotism and violent English nationalism. Over the last few years it’s been impossible to avoid the rise of the far-right across Europe and the United States, seeing politicians and people on the streets alike using the Nazi salute freely without consequence, and genocide apologist’s ideas embraced in the mainstream media. This song is about the brainwashing that’s led to this, to question what we’ve been brought up believing and the narratives that have been reinforced for generations.
Damiani goes on to explain why Carter was the perfect choice for the track:
As soon as the initial ideas were fleshed out I wanted Sam on this track. We’ve been fans of Architects for a long time and the energy and aggression he brings to his vocals are unmatched. As a human being of planet earth he’s used his talents again and again to stand up for what’s right so to collaborate on this song with him was very special.
The band already made a splash with the album's lead single and title track, "Nightmare Tripping," which featured a surprisingly effective guest spot from Canadian hard rockers (and dill pickle snack impresarios) Nickelback. Do you understand the skill it takes to make a Nickelback track that actually goes hard? In 2026? No wonder people* are calling Nightmare Tripping "the best Don Broco album ever." Fortunately, Don Bronco are set on using their power for good.
Starting Sunday, March 29th, the band will embark on a series of shows and signings to celebrate the album's release. In June, the band will kick of the Nightmare Tripping Europe/UK Tour which will include festival stops, a one-off show with A Day To Remember and a date opening for Scottish rock institution Biffy Clyro with fellow special guests Nothing But Thieves, Marmozets, and Wavves. And in January—yes, next January—the band will take part in the E.N.D. (Emo's Not Dead) Cruise.

*Don Broco. Don Broco said that. But if these singles are any indication, they may be onto something.
