Arch Enemy new video single, “Sunset Over The Empire”

Swedish melodic death metal band Arch Enemy have unleashed their previously announced new single “Sunset Over The Empire,” which you can check out here, with the official music video embedded below. The track appears on the band’s upcoming studio album, ‘Deceivers,’ which drops on July 29th through Century Media Records (pre-order).

Arch Enemy’s founder and chief songwriter Michael Amott says, “Behold the ‘Sunset Over The Empire’, the 4th single from our upcoming ‘Deceivers’ album! This is a faster song with some manic riffs and a relentless beat that I can envision becoming a ‘hit in the pit’! Lyrically, it’s sadly one of those that seems to ring more true with each and every passing day nowadays…’Words turned to war, brother fighting brother, another false truce, as the people die…’.”

He adds, “The accompanying video was shot in Poland with the Grupa13 team and doesn’t follow the lyrics slavishly but has a great message and vibe in its own right. Oh, and I’m stoked that we’re releasing ‘Sunset Over The Empire’ as a limited edition physical single on 7″ vinyl!”

The ‘Sunset Over The Empire’ 7″ effort can be purchased here.
