Architects announced that the first single from the upcoming fourth album would be entitled "Day in Day Out", and was premièred on Daniel P. Carter's BBC Radio 1 podcast The Rock Show on 30 August 2010.
The band headlined tours of the UK in October 2010 with Norma Jean, Devil Sold His Soul and Lower Than Atlantis supporting and Australia in December with Comeback Kid as co-headliners and This is Hell and Rolo Tomassi supporting.

On 19 January 2011, Architects' fourth album The Here and Now was released.
The album was recorded across 2010 from May till June at The Omen Room Studios in California and featured guest vocals from Andrew Neufeld of Comeback Kid and Greg Puciato of The Dillinger Escape Plan.
The album was seen as going in a more commercial direction from the rest of the band's work.
The album sold 900 copies in the United States in its first week and debuted at number 47 on the US Top Heatseekers album charts and number 57 on the UK Album Charts.
Upon its release the album was well received by critics.
Drummer Dan Searle, when describing the sound on the album in an interview, believed it was a massive departure but also a logical progression for the band, saying: "I completely understand that we are “known” for being a technical band but it's just not what we want to write any more, I think if you look at the way we have evolved over the last few records you could see it coming.
We started writing technical music when we were 16 and have spent the years since slowly moving away from it, it feels like different people wrote those songs."
When looking back at the album in hindsight the band has always seen the period the record was released in as one of difficulty and lack of confidence in themselves.

In February 2011, Architects announced the departure of bassist Alex Dean, due to family commitments.
On 3 July 2011 it was announced that Dean had rejoined the band.
When Dean commented on the short 5-month split from the band he said "I'm very happy to be able to say that I'm back, being able to stay at home for the past few months have given my family and I the opportunity to adjust to what happened last year and I know it's done us all a lot of good."
During this period where Dean was not a part of the band Casey Lagos filled in as a bass guitarist on some of the tours.

In April 2011, Bring Me the Horizon as part of their ongoing support for their third album on their international There Is a Hell... Tour.
Architects was a main support alongside Parkway Drive and supported them in two continents.
It started with a European tour, starting in the United Kingdom with The Devil Wears Prada as the opening support for the UK and dubstep group Tek-one opening for the remainder of continental Europe.
On 28 April Matt Nicholls broke his arm whilst playing football with members of Bring Me the Horizon, Parkway Drive and Architects, and instead of cancelling the tour Architects' drummer Dan Searle filled in as the drummer, this meant that Bring Me the Horizon's setlist was halved in length.
This European tour lasted until late August.
Architects, Parkway Drive and Deez Nuts supported Bring Me the Horizon in North America across September and October.

On 4 December 2011, Architects released a new single entitled "Devil's Island".
The song was for an at the time unnamed follow up album to The Here and Now.
The single was announced in early November, a month before its actual release.
As an iTunes bonus b-side song "Untitled" was added into the single download.
In addition to its announcement it was streamed on the band's Facebook page.
Both the song and the music video that accompanied the release talk about and deal with the 2011 England riots, with the music video featuring clips of the riots.
The single itself was well received by critics for its return to the mathcore style of their third album, Hollow Crown.
J.J. Nattrass of Bring the noise UK said that "the Track is sweeping and melodic in parts, whilst bursting with high tempo and visceral raw energy in others."
In December 2011 the band embarked on a five-day UK hea
