Arch Enemy Release New Track, ‘House Of Mirrors’

Arch Enemy are back with another new track, and this one is amazing!!!

‘House Of Mirrors’ is more melodic and unique, but it’s no less bludgeoning and brash than the rest of their back catalogue. Big solos, driving drums and vocals ready-made for the highest of mountains, it’s a crushing way to see out 2021.

Michael Amott (Guitar) had this to say:

“Musically, this is an idea that has been bouncing around in my head for a while, and finally it got finished. It all started with the guitar motif that kicks off the track, which naturally leads to the galloping 80’s-metal feel of the verses. As is always the case with us, we had quite a few different arrangements and demos of this song until it was, dare I say, fckn perfect!”

And Alissa White-Gluz  (Vocals) added: 

“‘House of Mirrors’ is a song that twists its way into the human psyche. I wrote the lyrics during a dark time of strict, dystopian lockdown, and I think people will be able to relate to that feeling of being totally alone – but never truly alone – when you are surrounded only by past and future versions of yourself as company.”

They will play five dates at the end of September / Early October 2021. The shows will be Behemoth’s first to played in the UK since supporting Slipknot earlier in 2020 and Arch Enemy’s first since touring with Amon Amarth in 2019.

“After more than a year’s break from live music, we can think of no better homecoming to our beloved Legions than delivering to you a performance of new music and an event for the ages,” says Behemoth mainman Nergal. “The European Siege [is] a crushing combination of Carcass, Arch Enemy, and Behemoth. We also proudly present the uniquely brilliant, Unto Others who will warmly welcome you to this night of metal magic!”

“As we’ve been going through these troubled and challenging times lately, I think we all need something to look forward to. A reason to believe, right? Well.. this is it!” adds Arch Enemy’s Michael Amott, who coincidentally also played with Carcass for a time.

New Music Video’s 26/10/17

It’s that time of the week again! Time for another round of new music videos! That’s 10 of the best released in the last week and we’ll start in the form of Knuckle Punk!

Here’s what happened when they played a birthday party in their music video for Gone.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next is the latest from Rise Records band Eighteen Visions. It’s off their latest record XVIII and it’s an absolute belter. Here’s Underneath My Gun.

 

 

 

 

Now, we’re hoping straight across to Hopeless Records newcomers Hold Close. They only get one chance for a first impression and they do not disappoint. Here’s Temper.

 

 

 

 

Now, we’ll go a little bit heavier. This band have just wrapped up a run of dates in Europe in support of their latest record, ‘Will To Power’ This is Sweedish heavy metal outfit Arch Enemy with their latest video in The Race.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next, let’s move to Watford. This band consists of members of Gallows, Sikth and Nervus/Blackholemade and they’ve come together to form Gold Key. This is their video for their new track; Kerosene.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another new band has come. We were Sharks just signed to Victory Records and revealed their debut record, ‘Lost Touch’, for February 23rd. This is their first single, Beyond Repair.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Getting further into this weeks list is The Black Hand. They’re from California and they’ve tapped Michael Cudlitz of The Walking Dead fame to their video. This is the video for the track, Where Are You Now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now, going a bit heavier is in the form of legends Trivium. This is a track off their new record, The Sing And the Sentence. It’s a video which has been a while coming but it’s released now. Here’s Thrown Into The Fire.

 

 

The penultimate track is a cover! They’ve revealed they scrapped an album this week but something else is on the way. For the moment though, this is New Years Day’s cover of Gangsta.

 

 

 

 

Now the last track of the week. I always want to end on something beautiful or spectacular.

Well, this week has been fortunate. A few days ago, Evanescence dropped a new video for their track ‘Imperfection’. It’s taken from their upcoming record ‘Synthesis’ which is set to drop November 10th. Check it out below.

 

 

And that’s it for the ten best music videos in the last week. Check back next week for another ten great music videos.
