Arch Enemy release ultimate single & video ‘Paper Tiger’

The wait is almost over: Before Swedish extreme metal titans Arch Enemy unleash their 12th studio album “Blood Dynasty” at the end of March this year, the band reveals the ultimate single and video “Paper Tiger”. The full album is slated for release on March 28, 2025, via Century Media Records.

Stream “Paper Tiger” here and watch the video here. “Paper Tiger” follows the title track release “Blood Dynasty”, which the band revealed in early December of last year.

Founder and guitarist Michael Amott says about “Paper Tiger”: 

“With ‘Blood Dynasty’ almost here, we thought we’d sneak in another single for you! ‘Paper Tiger’ is a personal favorite—these riffs are so much fun to play. The accompanying video was shot on a German airfield last summer with our visionary friend Mumpi. Turn it up and let it roar!” 

“Blood Dynasty”, the 12th studio album from Arch Enemy, delivers 11 brand-new tracks brimming with the band’s signature crushing guitar riffs and intense guttural energy. Pre-order your copy of “Blood Dynasty” here.
