ARCHERS Unleash New Single “Better Off” Ahead of Forthcoming EP
Temporary High Produced by Matt Good, the explosive track is now streaming on all platforms!

Wisconsin metalcore powerhouse ARCHERS have just dropped their latest single, “Better Off,” now available on all streaming platforms. Known for their intense energy, emotionally charged lyrics, and uncompromising sound, ARCHERS continue their rise in the modern metalcore landscape with this hard-hitting new release.

“‘Better Off’ is about breaking free from a manipulative relationship and having the courage to set and enforce personal boundaries even when it’s uncomfortable,” says the band.

“Better Off” is the lead single from their upcoming EP, Temporary High, due out June 13 via SBG Records. Produced by Matt Good (Hollywood Undead, Sleeping With Sirens), the band’s fourth EP showcases ARCHERS’ evolving sound—a bold blend of blistering metalcore aggression and catchy, high-energy pop dynamics.

The band states, “Temporary High is all about finding catharsis. It’s about breaking free from toxic cycles and finding value in oneself apart from anyone or anything that would try to usurp one’s own identity.”

The band is currently on tour supporting The Funeral Portrait and has announced two back-to-back tours for this summer. Their EU/UK run kicks off June 10th in Berlin, Germany at Kantine am Berghain. Then in July, they’ll hit the road again—this time headlining a U.S. tour with support from Rivals, Of Virtue, and Dead Eyes.

ARCHERS combine massive melodies and crushing heaviness with unrivaled passion and precision. The music of the Midwestern quartet connects deeply via confessional tales of broken hearts and mental anguish, building an intimate sense of community with outsiders from all corners of the world.

After years of honing their craft on the road, at major rock festivals and touring alongside bands such as Asking Alexandria, Catch Your Breath, From Ashes to New, Magnolia Park and Imminence, the band has developed a knack for delivering high octane, head turning performances that resonate with
their fans while continuing to win over a dedicated army of new fans with each performance.

The Wisconsin band’s momentum is a testament to the strength of its soaring songs and magnetic live performances. Its fourth EP, Temporary High, was produced by Matt Good (Hollywood Undead, Sleeping With Sirens) and blends energetic pop and visceral metalcore into an evocative sound.

Engaging frontman Nathanael Pulley and dynamic guitarist Ben Koehler first came together under the Archers banner in 2015, with the later addition of funk and R&B-loving bassist and vocalist Oscar Porter and hard rock-weaned drummer Grayson Mesarosh crystalizing the band’s definitive line-up.
Each of the four came into heavy music via different gateways, from a mixture of metalcore and melodic rock bands as diverse as the Vans Warped Tour line-up, from pop-punk hooks to devastating breakdowns.

Determination, passion, and authenticity are the beating heart of Archers. Even as Archers’ mission expands worldwide, the quartet is determined to remain true to themselves. This is evident to their most diehard fans, and it is precisely why what they are doing connects so profoundly.

ARCHERS:

Nathanael Pulley – Vocals
Ben Koehler – Guitar
Oscar Porter – Bass/Vocals
Grayson Mesarosh – Drums
