ARCHETYPES COLLIDE SHARE VIDEO FOR COVER OF LIT’S SMASH HIT “MY OWN WORST ENEMY” — WATCH 

Arizona rock band ARCHETYPES COLLIDE — Kyle Pastor (vocals), Brandon Baker and Jared Knister (guitars), Ky Sanders (bass), and Tyler Flamm (drums) — quickly established themselves as a band unafraid to blur the lines between safety and innovation in heavy music. In their songs, soaring vocals, melodies, and heavy grooves swirl with passion and precision.

Today, the band has shared the video for its cover of LIT’s smash, 1999-released hit “MY OWN WORST ENEMY.”

”My Own Worst Enemy’ carries a massive amount of nostalgia for us,” the band offers. “When we decided to cover it, we knew we had to do it justice, and at the same time, make it our own. We switched up the instrumental to a darker vibe and it instantly gave the lyrics a whole new meaning and made for a super unique take on the song.”

The video premiered over at Knotfest.com here.

Watch it here.

What better way to celebrate the song’s 25th anniversary than a reimagining such as this!

ABOUT ARCHETYPES COLLIDE:
ARCHETYPES COLLIDE demand repeated listening, mixing everything from Linkin Park and Bring Me The Horizon to The Chainsmokers, and Stranger Things-style retro synths, into a unique musical identity. A collection of singles and EPs drew a devoted fanbase and the attention of Oshie Bichar, bassist for Beartooth. Bichar enlisted his management, and the pair took Archetypes Collide under their wing. Soon after, SiriusXM’s Octane got behind songs like “Your Misery,” “Becoming What I Hate,” and “Above It All.” The band appeared on major festivals like Aftershock, Louder Than Life, and Welcome To Rockville, toured with genre giants The Amity Affliction, and crafted an ambitious self-titled debut album for Fearless Records. Archetypes Collide spent several weeks in the first part of 2022 making their inaugural full-length, with a super team surrounding them to execute their vision. Bichar produced alongside Nick Ingram (Dayseeker, Convictions, Hawthorne Heights) at Capital House Studio in Ohio. Additional production came from Jon Eberhard (Skillet, I Prevail, Until I Wake); The Plot In You frontman Landon Tewers lent a creative hand as well. The resulting album, mixed by Jeff Dunne (Ice Nine Kills, Wage War, Make Them Suffer), captures the vibrant spirit of the 2010s-era Warped Tour with a postmodern edge. It’s a diverse but singular mission statement, brimming with authenticity and hope. ARCHETYPES COLLIDE aren’t bound by preconceived notions or limitations. As single Kyle Pastor explains simply: “Why not take every shot, in every direction, under the umbrella of hard rock and metal?”
