ARCH ENEMY's Tyrants Of The Rising Sun - Live In Japan DVD Details; New Track Posted Online
Extreme metal masters ARCH ENEMY present you a first appetizer for their stunning
new live release Tyrants Of The Rising Sun – Live In Japan, which streets on
November 24th, 2008 in Europe and November 25th in North America. You can now check
out the song “Taking Back My Soul” (the original version appears on 2005’s Doomsday
Machine album) in its uncompromising live intensity and impressing Andy Sneap mix at

Recorded in March of 2008 in Tokyo, Tyrants Of The Rising Sun – Live In Japan is not
only a breathtaking live document of the Rise Of The Tyrant touring cycle, but also
marks ARCH ENEMY’s first internationally available live-album (and second DVD after
Live Apocalypse). The main live-set very clearly demonstrates what an enormous
amount of quality metal tracks the band has forged during its 7-studio album career
and the bonus content includes an in-depth road movie allowing further insights into
the ARCH ENEMY-cult phenomenon in Asia, as well as several promo clips.
Vocalist Angela Gossow comments on the live release as follows: “It is a great
reward to make studio songs come alive – and they truly take another shape and form
on stage! They turn from being a ‘rocking tune’ into beasts, full of emotions. The
songs suddenly have their own heart beat and their blood runs through thousands of
people in the audience – making them a crucial part of the music! Singing along,
screaming, shouting, crying, cheering – This huge powerful choir we could never
summon in a studio recording.
“I am very happy we got the opportunity to capture the beauty and the brutality of
ARCH ENEMY live in Japan! Choosing Andy Sneap to mix and master Tyrants of The
Rising Sun is the icing on the cake. Now we only have about another 666 countries
left we would like to shoot a live video from, haha! Thank you for keeping us alive.
Feel the blood, taste the sweat and hear the roar of the Tyrants!”
Tyrants Of The Rising Sun will be available as Deluxe DVD+2CD with special
