Arch Enemy - New Album Cover Artwork And Tracklist


The upcoming Arch Enemy album is now taking shape. Century Media has just unveiled the tracklist and cover artwork of War Eternal, the band's first with new singer Alissa White-Gluz. The band has already shot a video with the new singer, for the title track "War Eternal". Below you can see the album cover. One clue: pigs.

The album is going to be released on June 9th in Europe and June 10th in North America. Take a look at the tracklist and album cover:



Artwork by Costin Chioreanu


01. Tempore Nihil Sanat (Prelude in F minor)
02. Never Forgive, Never Forget
03. War Eternal
04. As The Pages Burn
05. No More Regrets
06. You Will Know My Name
07. Graveyard Of Dreams
08. Stolen Life
09. Time Is Black
10. On And On
11. Avalanche
12. Down To Nothing
13. Not Long For This World

Guitarist Michael Amott comments: "I was looking for a hand-drawn feel with a unique atmosphere, something that would complement the music that we've been working so hard on these last couple of years. In the end my choice fell upon Romanian artist Chioreanu Costin, who's work I've admired for some time. Costin really grasped my vision for the artwork and layout, he's delivered some of the coolest artwork elements we've ever had with Arch Enemy!"

For a second I thought It was Cthulhu painted on the right wall. Maybe becouse is getting used to.
I like the whole artwork and as I said before, the vocal change made me look forward to this band, after a while.

This looks just as promising as Floor Jansen in Nightwish. Will be cool to hear what Alissa can do with them.

I really wish I could believe that this album might match the artwork; something darker, more sinister and different from the usual but I have a hard time getting on board with that. I'd love Arch Enemy to do something good again though.

The music definitely won't live up to the quality of the cover art.

Don't see why you didn't like it.

Previous artworks were better?

Never really liked AE's covers much but about this one, I just don't see it. Obviously, people are seeing something I'm not lol

The album cover is decent, the only decent cover by AE was that one of Anthems Of Rebellion. The rest didn't impress me!

"Graveyard of Dreams" sounds cool. The cover looks ridiculous though. Everything else sounds like a cliche of some kind. Too bad about this band just going to dust.

I like the idea of the artwork but I don't like the coloring and how the middle figure looks. I think it could be more ...alluring ? Anyway , I too hope the album is good.

Dont know what it is but the cover just feels off to me... Maybe it's that I don't see how it relates to the title/lyrics of War Eternal because alone it is a really cool piece of art.

Again, a list of ultra generic song titles(aside from a couple), and judging by the first single, I expect the music will be the same. Hopefully I'm wrong though.

Seems very Meh to me... just like most of Arch Enemy's work. Does not excite me...
But good luck with the new singer...

I dig the art quite a bit for what it is, but as Angel said, it doesn't seem to fit the album or song titles, or Arch Enemy in general. I have hope the album will turn out better than the last 2 though.

Damn, I was not expecting that. Is there any chance that the single 'War Eternal' just sucked by itself and the rest of the album is as good as that cover?

Don't see how the cover relates to the album title but it looks cool regardless.

Pigs are obviously belligerent by nature
