Arch Enemy arose from the ashes of quarantine and announced new album, Deceivers, slated for a July release. The album can be pre-saved here. To ease the tension rising soon to be rising from the fans, the band will be releasing a new single from the album. “Handshake With Hell”, which will be released on February 4. Guitarist, Michael Amott, states, “Having just celebrated our 25th anniversary as a group and now releasing our 11th studio album, one could easily assume that we would be cruising along and going through the motions at this point. In reality, nothing could be further from the truth…” as he goes on about how the band takes the creative process seriously, shutting out the world to focus on their craft. Arch Enemy will be returning to the US with Behemoth to kick off their North American Siege 2022 Tour in the Spring, while the European Siege 2022 Tour will proceed in the fall. “Despite the obvious uncertainties, everyone is currently facing in the world, we have got quite a few concerts booked for this year!” Amott reveals as they do their best to push forward as the COVID-19 Pandemic rages on. See the album artwork and tracklist below.
