06-02-2025
Before Swedish extreme metal titans Arch Enemy unleash their 12th studio album “Blood Dynasty” at the end of March this year, the band reveals the single and video “Paper Tiger”. The full album is slated for release on March 28, 2025, via Century Media Records. The song’s video premieres at Arrow Lords Of Metal at 18:00 CET.

Founder and guitarist Michael Amott says about “Paper Tiger”:
“With ‘Blood Dynasty’ almost here, we thought we’d sneak in another single for you! ‘Paper Tiger’ is a personal favorite—these riffs are so much fun to play. The accompanying video was shot on a German airfield last summer with our visionary friend Mumpi. Turn it up and let it roar!”
ARCH ENEMY have previously released the video for the title track of their upcoming album, “Blood Dynasty” last October. The LP is slated for release on March 28 via Century Media Records.

Following the surprise drop of their single “Dream Stealer” in July and the subsequent release of “Liars & Thieves” in October, “Blood Dynasty” marks the third single offering from the highly anticipated album. The track promises to deliver ARCH ENEMY‘s signature blend of powerful guitar riffs and dynamic vocals, showcasing the band’s evolution while staying true to their roots.
Founder and guitarist Michael Amott shares: “The third single from our upcoming album has arrived, and it’s the title track: ‘Blood Dynasty’! This one shifts gears from the fast and furious energy of our two recent singles, diving deeper into melody and atmosphere. Immerse yourself in this dystopian soundscape!”
Amott previously stated about “Blood Dynasty”: “This new album pushes the boundaries of what we’ve done before — it’s everything you’ve come to expect from this band, and then some! We can’t wait for you to hear it and feel the energy we’ve poured into every track. Welcome to the ‘Blood Dynasty’!”
