ARCH ENEMY Embark On First U.S. Headlining Tour In Support of 'Doomsday Machine'

October 6, 2005

After emerging as this year's Ozzfest breakthrough artist, ARCH ENEMY now prepares to conquer the U.S. once again this November on a stellar headlining tour with ALL THAT REMAINS, MNEMIC and A PERFECT MURDER in the support slots. The trek, which kicks off on November 11 and runs through December 1, will be the group's first headlining run in support of their critically acclaimed new album, "Doomsday Machine", which debuted at #87 on The Billboard 200 chart. The anticipation surrounding the group's return to the U.S. has been nothing short of phenomenal, as their new disc rapidly approaches the 50,000 SoundScan plateau.

As previously reported, ARCH ENEMY have recruited Fredrik Åkesson as a replacement for Chris Amott (guitar) for the continued "Doomsday Machine" touring campaign. Åkesson has lent his awesome guitar talent to such varied artists such as TALISMAN, JOHN NORUM, KRUX, TIAMAT and his own (now defunct) group, SOUTHPAW.

ARCH ENEMY start their European tour in Paris at the Bataclan on October 2. The band's "Doomsday Machine" album entered the official German Top 100 chart at position No. 34. The CD was co-produced by the band and Rickard Bengtsson at Slaughterhouse Studio in Sweden and was mixed by Andy Sneap at Backstage Studios in Derbyshire, U.K.
