Formed in 1995 by Swedish guitarist Michael Amott, Arch Enemy has spent three decades delivering brutal, melodic, and technically impressive metal albums that have helped define and evolve the genre. Known for their powerful sound and epic live shows, the band has grown from an underground icon to a global phenomenon.
With Alissa White-Gluz as the lead vocalist since 2014, the band has achieved an even greater international presence. Her impressive vocals and magnetic stage presence have given Arch Enemy a new dimension, while Michael Amott, drummer Daniel Erlandsson, bassist Sharlee D’Angelo, and guitarist Joey Concepcion provide the formidable musical foundation.
In 2025, Arch Enemy celebrates their 30th anniversary. Since their beginnings in the '90s, they have been at the forefront of metal. Renowned for their skilled musicianship, charismatic front figures, and epic live shows, they constantly push the boundaries of what’s possible within the genre. Their music spans a range of metal subgenres, including melodic death metal, thrash, and heavy metal. Their ability to innovate while staying true to their authentic sound has earned them widespread recognition.
New tracks like “Dream Stealer” and “Liars & Thieves” set the tone for the band’s latest chapter, but it’s their classics, such as “War Eternal” and “Nemesis”, that have truly laid the foundation for their success. With the release of their 12th studio album, Blood Dynasty, in 2025, Arch Enemy is poised to take the metal world by storm once again. The album promises to be an unforgettable combination of brutality, melody, and energy!
