Arch Enemy –  reveal new singer, single, and club tour

Swedish extreme metal juggernauts ARCH ENEMY charge into a new chapter with the release of their explosive new single “To The Last Breath” – the band’s first blast of fresh material since their latest album Blood Dynasty.

A crushing statement of intent, “To The Last Breath” stays true to the band’s razor-sharp legacy while igniting a thrilling new era. The track also marks a major reveal: it’s the first release to feature vocals from the band’s newly unveiled singer Lauren Hart (ex-Once Human), whose arrival only amplifies their trademark ferocity to new heights.

Michael Amott, guitarist and founder of ARCH ENEMY, comments, 
“Connecting with Lauren has marked an important step in my journey. Working with her was an exceptional experience – her remarkable voice, coupled with her dedication and professionalism, brings a rare level of excellence. I look forward to continuing the collaboration!”

While fans and media alike have been rabidly speculating about who might step behind the microphone, the band remained tight-lipped, blanking out their social media, as anticipation built to a fever pitch. Now, ARCH ENEMY are back full force, revealing savage new anthem “To The Last Breath” as a no-holds-barred, baptism of fire for new vocalist Lauren Hart.

Michael Amott imparts, “Make no mistake – this song is a reckoning. Musically, it’s unapologetically aligned with my original vision for the band – and I believe longtime fans will recognise that immediately. Lyrically, it’s about seeing through deception and dismantling the illusion of control. It captures that moment when you realise you’ve been fed poison – and you choose to fight back. Once that clarity hits, there’s no retreat. It’s do or die.”

Kicking the doors off in every fashion, to celebrate this new chapter ARCH ENEMY have also announced a tiny European club show run dubbed “Back To The Root Of All Evil” in summer 2026.

Among the select dates are two unforgettable stops in England. ARCH ENEMY hit Manchester’s Rebellion for the very first time, while the Underworld in London sees the band back for the first time since December 2002. Normally filling venues ten times the size, these intimate club shows strip things back to raw power, giving fans a once-in-a-lifetime, up-close experience with one of metal’s most ferocious forces.
