"Yesterday Is Dead And Gone", the new video from Swedish/German extreme metallers Arch Enemy, can be viewed at Khaoslegions.com. The clip was directed by Patric Ullaeus of Revolver Film Company, who has previously worked with Dimmu Borgir, Lacuna Coil, In Flames, Sonic Syndicate and Kamelot, among others. The song comes off the band's new album, "Khaos Legions", which will be released on May 30 in Europe and June 7 in the U.S. via Century Media Records. The CD marks the band's return to new, original material, after the release of the "Tyrants Of The Rising Sun - Live In Japan" live DVD/CD (2008) and the re-recordings album, "The Root Of All Evil" (2009). The effort was tracked at Sweet Spot Studio in the south of Sweden with engineer Rickard Bengtsson (who produced 2005's "Doomsday Machine").
The "Khaos Legions" artwork is made by renowned artist Brent Elliott White (Megadeth, Death Angel).

Commented Arch Enemy guitarist Michael Amott: "Here's the visual companion to our new song, 'Yesterday Is Dead And Gone'. As you will see, we had a riot making it!!!"
"The new 'Khaos Legions' album is to my ears our most diverse and musical creation to date."
"I'm looking forward to unleashing the 'Khaos' worldwide a few weeks from now!"
Arch Enemy drummer Daniel Erlandsson previously stated about the new CD, "We had a very inspiring and creative time writing this album. I think this is definitely evident when listening to the new songs. There's tons of variation in the material, ranging all the way from very melodic to extremely heavy."
"As you can expect there's no shortage of killer riffs and intricate guitar work; the Amott brothers [Michael and Chris] have come up with some very cool yet demanding ideas!"
"This album has some of the fastest songs I've ever recorded, along with a bunch of heavy pounding mid-tempo songs."
"As always, it's difficult to describe music in words, but rest assured - this album will be one heavy fucker!"

theres another one that works for now if you just search for the name of the song on youtube. its not arch enemy themselves or the record company either so i would imagine it wont be there for long. it sounds pretty good though, i cant wait for the rest of the album
I am so tired of this band's "melodies". The song will be raging along,killer riffs,vocals sounding good and then BAM, slow the tempo and play some B.S.
I wish they would let their songs just rip through from beginning to end without the interludes.
