Arch Enemy prepares new album

Swedish metal band Arch Enemy is currently working on material for their next album. Thus far the group has written 7-8 new tracks. According to guitarist Michael Amott, the songs are "life-changing and ridiculously huge metal hymns; this is all my own (not so) humble opinion of course. You'll see."

The band has booked studio time for March and April, with a release expected in summer 2007 via Century Media Records.
