So, what happened? Did they all sit round a table and say something along these lines:
"Right, we've got this great aggressive thrash/melodic death metal hybrid sound, a fantastic drummer and probably the best guitar playing brothers team in heavy metal today. We've also got some nice and ripping production. So we really need now is a vocalist who barks one note over and over again like a pissed off caveman with Down's Syndrome. Oh yeah, and he needs to be really up in the mix so that no one can ignore him and waste their time listening to the music instead."

Kit-
In case you are not aware, their new singer is not a "he", the singer is a "she". She does the death thing well, but Arch Enemy would have gone further with someone who could sing.

Yes, I heard they had a new female singer. I was hoping that would some decent vocals, but, oh well. Is she death, or more hardcore, which I like even less when sung by a woman?
I was thinking someone like Keith Caputo (from Life of Agony) would sound good in AA. A relatively hardcore style, but with a sense of melody and dynamics. |

Interesting call on Keith. That wouldn't have been pretty cool.

As much as the new vocals for Arch Enemy are almost too extreme, the quitar work on the songs I've heard so far is amazing! When you listen to that type of metal, I almost have to disregard the vocals, because more than likely they are going to suck. The new singer for Enemy doesn't completely turn me off though, it doesn't sound like anyone I've ever heard before and that may be because it's a female. The song "Ravenous" is the best one I've heard so far and I can almost see her spitting blood after she sings each verse............very harsh!
Still, they are one of my favorite bands around right now. |
