Gearing up to make a massive impact on metal in 2014 Arch Enemy now release the video “You Will Know My Name”, once again directed by the band’s long-time friend and collaborator Patric Ullaeus:
The video done in a grainy fashion mentions the melodic energy brought forward in the song while new vocalist Alissa White-Gluz clarified aggression glimmers. As anticipation heights for the release of War Eternal there is no doubt this could be one of the best Arch Enemy albums to date.
