Arch Enemy Release New Single House Of Mirrors

Thursday, 09 December 2021 Written by Laura Johnson

Arch Enemy have released a new track.

House Of Mirrors follows their October single Deceiver, Deceiver, which marked their first new music in four years. The pummelling song is driven by the relentless beats of Daniel Erlandsson, as guitarists Michael Amott and Jeff Loomis weave melodic guitar riffs around vocalist Alissa White-Gluz's guttural death metal growls.

Just like its predecessor, the new song was mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen . Its Grupa13-directed accompanying video will premiere at 5pm GMT today (December 9). White-Gluz said:

"'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."

Amott added: "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!"
