"Arch Enemy han comenzado a mezclar su noveno álbum de estudio con Jens Bogren (OPETH , PARADISE LOST, KREATOR) en los estudios "Fascination Street" en Suecia.
Michael Amott (guitarra) comenta: "Hemos estado produciéndolo nosotros mismos, como lo hicimos en "Khaos Legions". Tenemos una visión clara de como queremos que suene ARCH ENEMY, y podemos lograrlo sin la ayuda de productores externos. También contamos con la ventaja de tener dos ingenieros de sonido con talento en nuestras filas Daniel Erlandsson (batería) y Nick Cordle (guitarra).
Hemos estado grabando en estudios diferentes aquí en Suecia, la batería en "Fascination Street Studio" y las guitarras y el bajo en otra habitación. Acabamos de terminar la voz en un tercer estudio con el ingeniero Staffan Karlsson (Khaos Legions) y la mezcla y masterización la realizo Jens Bogren en sus instalaciones de "Fascination Street".
Musicalmente, este álbum va a lugares que no hemos visitado antes... Líricamente es un disco mucho más personal, y las canciones tienen más dinámica y profundidad que nunca. Las canciones están cargadas de metal potente y vicioso, empapadas en toneladas de melodía y emoción. Todas las características de ARCH ENEMY están presentes, golpeándote la cara y llegando a 11" .
El nuevo álbum se titulará "War Eternal"...
ARCH ENEMY estrenará el nuevo material en una corta gira por Europa del Este antes de que el álbum se lance a principios de junio de 2014; esta será seguida por una serie de festivales de verano europeos, entre ellos Sweden Rock, Wacken y más. En otoño / invierno de 2014 habrá otra gira como cabezas de cartel por América del Norte, Europa y el Reino Unido..."
ARCH ENEMY reveals details for new album, ‘War Eternal’
Three years after the release of Khaos Legions and their most successful world tour to-date, extreme metal icons ARCH ENEMY have started mixing their 9th studio album with Jens Bogren (OPETH, PARADISE LOST, KREATOR) at Fascination Street in Sweden.
Michael Amott (guitar) comments: “We’ve been producing ourselves, as we did on ‘Khaos Legions’. 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”.
The new album will be titled War Eternal. Michael explains: “A lot of times life is a struggle, a war against what I like to call ‘mental chains’ in society that try to prevent you from living life the way you want, that try to stop you from making your dreams come true. I have always resented that and I always will. The title sums up our collective attitude a band as well; stages will be destroyed, eardrums will bleed. There will be no choice. This, ladies and gentlemen, is ’War Eternal’...”
ARCH ENEMY will debut new material on a short eastern European tour before the album is released in early June 2014; this trek will then be followed by an extensive run of European summer festivals, including Sweden Rock, Wacken and many more. A full headlining tour in North America, Europe, and the UK will take place in fall/winter 2014. ARCH ENEMY will once again tour nearly every corner of this world to spread the sound of War Eternal!
