Arch Enemy Give Death Metal A New Voice

Arch Enemy singer, Angela Gossow, recently spoke to the staff at Chart Attack about their lyrics:

It’s a heavy year end for British death metallers Arch Enemy. Not only are they wrapping up an opening slot for chums Cradle Of Filth in support of their own latest EP, "Dead Eyes See No Future," but they’re also frantically writing a follow-up full-length to 2003’s "Anthems Of Rebellion."

Singer Angela Gossow doesn’t really feel the tension, though. She’s managed to avoid it because lyrics just seem to be pouring out of her. Taking a few moments to phone up the old ChartAttack office, Gossow’s mind is all lyrics. It’s all she wants to discuss, relating that while she’s not quite ready to tell us what the new songs are about, we’ll be duly impressed.

"I could tell them to you now, but you need to hear my lyrics in the context of the music to fully appreciate them," she says. "Not that it will matter, because whenever you write lyrics, no one understands their point anyway. They all take their own elements from it even if the words are directly drawn (from) our own experiences."
