Arch Enemy just released a taste of what you will find on the deluxe edition of the band's upcoming new album, Will To Power. The band's new full-length LP will be available via Century Media September 8th and feature a number of covers on select editions. For now, the metallers shared the 62 second song "The Leader (Of The Fuckin' Assholes)", originally recorded in the early 1980's by the Swedish punk band The Shitlickers.







A deluxe edition of the album with a black 7″ box set will also feature covers of The Shitlickers' entire 1982 7″, Cracked Cop Skulls as well as some covers previously released on Arch Enemy's Stolen Life EP.

Wow .. This sounds like Trash Metal, not MDM ...
Sadly I don't like Trash at all, I'm curious now.

It's not thrash, it is clearly punk, and it's a cover

I don't care about covers, even for my favourite songs. I will often prefer the origal song. The only cover song I love is Tool's version of Led Zep's No quarter

Yeah wasn't sure wether to call it Trash Hardcore or Punk, I don't like those three and kinda mix them up ..

Thanks for the info though, I should have read the all thing before commenting .. But I feel better knowing that this won't be the album now

That was worse than I was expecting.

So what were you expecting from a punk cover?
