Angela Gossow (vocals) further comments on the upcoming headlining run: “The ‘Tyranny and Bloodshred Tour’ will be a brutal return to North America. We had an extremely good run with the co-headlining tour with Machine Head last year and we know this one will be just as good or even top the last one! We have been playing around with different and very extensive set lists the last couple of headlining tours and by the time we hit the U.S. the set will be a smooth, yet brutal ride through the history of ARCH ENEMY releases including the new album Rise of The Tyrant of course. Make sure got down the lyrics for ‘Vultures’ – I want to hear you all scream along! It’s going to be EPIC!
“We managed to pick a set of excellent support acts: Dark Tranquility, Divine Heresy and Firewind. They will make sure we will deliver the goods, keep us on our toes and kicking everybody’s butt out there until it bleeds. We can’t wait to make our way over the grand ocean – it’s a killer line-up, we carefully picked the venues, we are bringing a set full of goodies and promise you the ‘Tyranny and Bloodshred Tour’ will be full metal assault. It’s going to be a pure fucking shred-fest. Get your tickets, before the shows sell out! Horns up.”
