(Metal Hammer) Parkway Drive frontman Winston McCall has paid tribute to late Architects guitarist Tom Searle who died aged 28 last month following a three-year battle with cancer.
In an interview in an upcoming episode of Metal Hammer: In Residence on Spotify, McCall reflects on the "nice guy" who didn't compromise on his music he created, and says Searle left behind a "powerful" legacy.
McCall says: "He was a really good soul - a fantastic person. We'd known Tom for 10 years - Architects were the first band we played with in London. He was always the cheeky, dry-witted, kind, nice guy that always had time for a chat, always found a joke in something and didn't compromise in what he created.
"I think that's a very lasting legacy to be able to create and have enough conviction in himself to be able to say, 'This is what I want to put out into the world. I want it to stand for this and nothing else, no matter what people say or what direction we're trying to be pushed into - this is who we are and who I am.'" Read more here.
