ARCH ENEMY Premiere ‘Poisoned Arrow’ Music Video
February 9th, 2023

Melodic death metal band Arch Enemy have released a music video for the track ‘Poisoned Arrow’. Directed by Mirko Witzki, the clip can be viewed below.

Arch Enemy issued 11th full-length studio album Deceivers on August 12th, 2022 through Century Media Records.

Founder and guitarist Michael Amott commented: “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 when it comes to Arch Enemy and our new album, Deceivers.

“It is without a doubt always a challenge to raise the bar each time in both the songwriting and production side of things, and it can feel a bit daunting before we get into it. But once we do get started and fully immerse ourselves in the creative process, it’s really like there is nothing else in the world and we are very focused. And believe it or not, for the most part, we have a ton of fun making this music!

“Creating Deceivers was no different, once again we shut out the outside world and went deep into the artistic zone. I believe we pulled out some really interesting musical and lyrical themes this time, a few things might even raise an eyebrow or two – while retaining all the signature elements of the band. In the end, it’s Arch Enemy at full speed and power!”

Deceivers was mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen at Hansen Studios in Ribe, Denmark.
