ARCH ENEMY har idag namngett deras nionde studioalbum.
Albumet som fått titeln “War Eternal” är för närvarande under mixning i studion Fascination Street Studios i Örebro och släpps via skivbolaget Century Media. Bandets gitarrist Michael Amott har tidigare uttalat sig att deras nya album kommer att skilja sig radikalt från deras tidigare album ”Khaos Legions” som släpptes 2011.
“We have a clear vision of what we want ARCH ENEMY to sound like, and we can actually achieve it without the help of outside producers. We also have the advantage of having two talented sound engineers among our ranks in Daniel Erlandsson (drums) and Nick Cordle (guitar)”.
“We’ve been tracking at a few different studios here in Sweden — the drums at Fascination Street Studio and guitars and bass in another room. We just finished vocals in a third studio with engineer Staffan Karlsson (‘Khaos Legions’) and the mix and mastering will done by Jens Bogren at his Fascination Street mixing facility”.
“Musically, this album is going a few places we haven’t visited before. As our fans have come expect, our albums have all had their own vibe and ‘War Eternal’ will leave its own mark. Lyrically, it’s a much more personal record, and I feel the songs have more dynamics and depth than ever before. The songs are loaded with strong and vicious metal, drenched in tons of melody and emotion. All the trademarks of ARCH ENEMY are present, just more in your face and turned up to 11.”.
