ARCH ENEMY have released the official music video for “Illuminate The Path,” a fan favorite off the band’s latest album “Blood Dynasty” which arrived on March 28, 2025 via Century Media Records. The video was directed and produced by Patric Ullaeus.
In an interview with Metal Kings, ARCH ENEMY drummer Daniel Erlandsson said that “Illuminate The Path” “originally didn’t have that melodic chorus that we have now. It was Alissa’s idea to create that melodic chorus.” He added: “When you’re working in the studio, you have the time and space to change the songs a little bit, and inspiration comes suddenly”.
The video comes weeks before the Extreme Metal titans embark on their European headline tour in October 2025. Joining them on this unrelenting crusade are the mighty AMORPHIS and ELUVEITIE as co-support acts, with the crushing GATECREEPER set to open the gates of chaos.
