arch enemy
In 2025, Arch Enemy will celebrate their 30th anniversary with the release of their 12th studio album, Blood Dynasty. Founded in 1995 by Michael Amott, the band has grown from an underground metal act into a globally recognized name in the metal scene. Their signature blend of melody and brutality first emerged on their debut album Black Earth (1996), and the band has continued to evolve through lineup changes and creative growth.
After three albums, original vocalist Johan Liiva was replaced by Angela Gossow in 2001, marking the beginning of a new era. Albums like Wages of Sin (2001) and Doomsday Machine (2005) brought major success. In 2014, Alissa White-Gluz took over as lead vocalist, leading to the acclaimed release War Eternal. Later albums such as Will to Power (2017) and Deceivers (2022) solidified their status in the metal world.
Blood Dynasty, recorded in Sweden and produced by Jens Bogren, promises to be a heavy and dynamic album. It features tracks like “Dream Stealer,” “Illuminate the Path,” and “The Pendulum,” showcasing the band’s balance of melody and intensity. Alissa's vocal range is front and center, including—for the first time—a fully sung chorus on “Illuminate the Path.” The album also includes a cover of “Vivre Libre,” a French hard rock ballad sung entirely in French.
Despite their growing success, Arch Enemy remains true to their underground roots. With their raw and authentic approach, they continue to attract new fans while staying loyal to their long-time supporters.
