Arch Enemy Have Released A Furious New Anthem ‘House Of Mirrors’

Get those horns up.

Arch Enemy are back with another new track, and this one is a bit of an anthem.

It’s called ‘House Of Mirrors’ and exists on the more melodic side of their unique brand of heavy metal, but it’s no less bludgeoning and brash. Big solos, driving drums and vocals ready-made for the highest of mountains, it’s a crushing way to see out 2021.

Guitarist Michael Amott had this to say:

“Musically, this is an idea that has been bouncing around in my head for a while, and finally it got finished. It all started with the guitar motif that kicks off the track, which naturally leads to the galloping 80’s-metal feel of the verses. As is always the case with us, we had quite a few different arrangements and demos of this song until it was, dare I say, fckn perfect!”

And vocalist Alissa White-Gluz added: 

“‘House of Mirrors’ is a song that twists its way into the human psyche. I wrote the lyrics during a dark time of strict, dystopian lockdown, and I think people will be able to relate to that feeling of being totally alone – but never truly alone – when you are surrounded only by past and future versions of yourself as company.”

Let’s goooooo:

It follows on from ‘Deceiver, Deceiver’, which sounds a lot like this:
