Arch Enemy have released a stream of their new track First Day In Hell.

It’s taken from the band’s upcoming album Will to Power, which is out tomorrow (September 8) via Century Media.

Speaking recently to Metal Hammer, vocalist Alissa White-Gluz was asked whether the current political climate had influenced them on the follow-up to 2014’s War Eternal.

She said: “In a way, Arch Enemy’s music is more relevant than ever. Sometimes it takes a disaster for people to find their purpose, and I feel like there are a lot of people in the world who were complacent before, now realising they have to stand up for what they believe in.

“There are marches and protests from people that previously chose to stay out of it. When you find that passion you want art to accompany it, and you can’t find music of that calibre in mainstream songs.

“I think more people are going to be turning to metal to fuel that fire.”

Last month, Arch Enemy announced a UK and European tour, which is set to get under way in early January.
