Arch Enemy and The Black Dahlia Murder have announced the “Wrath Across America 2026” co-headline fall tour, a 30-date North American run with support from Septicflesh, Crypta and Thrown Into Exile. The tour runs Oct. 5 through Nov. 19, with pre-sales beginning May 20 at 10 a.m. local time and the general on-sale set for May 22 at 10 a.m. local time.
Arch Enemy guitarist and founder Michael Amott said: “North America, we are proud to announce our return, joined by the formidable Black Dahlia Murder, alongside special guests Septicflesh, Crypta and Thrown Into Exile. An exceptional lineup, built for those who live and breathe pure fucking metal. We look forward to bringing you a new era of Arch Enemy to a city near. Be there!”
The Black Dahlia Murder drummer Alan Cassidy added: “I’d take my arch enemy to see The Black Dahlia Murder and Arch Enemy! Then throw them in the pit. See you this fall!”
Arch Enemy enters this tour in a new chapter. Amott formed the Gothenburg, Sweden act in 1996, and over three decades and eleven studio albums the band has become one of the defining forces in extreme metal, known for pairing razor-edged riffing with anthemic twin-guitar leads. Angela Gossow fronted the band from 2001 until 2014, when Alissa White-Gluz stepped in and led the band through albums including War Eternal (2014), Will to Power (2017), Deceivers (2022) and Blood Dynasty (2025). The band has since welcomed Lauren Hart as their new frontwoman; their latest single, “To the Last Breath,” marks the opening salvo of this new era.
The Black Dahlia Murder heads out in continued support of Servitude, its tenth studio album, released in 2024 via Metal Blade Records. Blabbermouth called it “an album that nobly delivers the goods, while screaming defiance at the stars.” Metal Injection called it “fucking killer death metal,” while Distorted Sound crowned The Black Dahlia Murder “one of melodeath’s greatest, most consistent bands.”
