► Lyrics ◄
"Handshake With Hell"
Lead - Amott
Collective consciousness
Synapses between us
We pierce the sky with fists
We shroud the Earth in dust
Bow, sit down, take a knee
Before powers that be
We’re here to spread the flame
Welcome to the game
And after all is said and done
Since the moon eclipsed the sun
Can you feel the wrath of truth?
Does it burn you like abuse?
Lead - Amott
Come along to the killing grounds
It’s execution day
The grip of a thousand hands
Squeezes the life from supremacy
And after all is said and done
When the dark delays the dawn
Walk your path towards the reaper
Learn that hell is other people!
Chorus:
Obey
As we
Decay
Buy me a lobotomy
Fools never cease to amaze
Keep digging your grave
A lobotomy
Down here for eternity
Where fire and ice meet
You burnt the world above
We rule the world beneath
And after all is said and done
Before a new day has begun
Bid your worries all goodbye
Flee the pan, into the fire!
Fool me once and I’m numb
Twice and I’m dumb
Thrice, I won’t be fooled again
Fool me once and I’m done
Twice I succumb
To a handshake with hell
In the end, we only reap what we have sown
Can’t leave well enough alone
The world’s at stake
Under an oath that cannot break
Lead - Amott
Lead - Loomis
Chorus:
Obey
As we
Decay
Buy me a lobotomy
Fools never cease to complain
Keep digging your grave
A lobotomy

Thanks for watching our new video for “Handshake With Hell” with us! It’s awesome to be sharing new Arch Enemy music finally and we can’t wait to see you on tour soon! 🤘

[@chungster666]

See you on tour soon. 🤘🤘

[@rubronegro6490]

Metal for life 🇧🇷🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@MrWepx-hy6sn]

The clean vocals suprised me, good to see Arch Enemy is letting Alissa show her final form as an extremely versatile vocalist

[@diegolatorre6793]

This is not even her final form

[@FrozenMermaid666]

This song is one of the many lyrics secretly written about me & Chip, and we (me & Chip) are The Supreme Leader selected to lead the New World soon after the system change -- I reflect the Moon / Luna etc and The Star / The Stars etc and I am The Supreme Being and I represent The Angel & The Demon, and so does Chip aka the man who protects me, as he also represents an angel & demon at the same time and The Reaper / Grim Reaper and The Sun and The Devil etc secretly referenced in this song and in many other newer songs!

[@FrozenMermaid666]

The songs God Is A 'Woman' and Dark Horse and I Am Not A Woman, I Am A God are about me , and the songs Pan and Whoever Brings The Night and Eva and Cadence Of Her Last Breath etc by Nightwish, Achingly Beautiful by CoF, Not Human Kind by Eyes of Eden, The Bee and Silver Bride by Amorphis, and Medusa by Tarja and the song Heart Of Glass etc are also some of the songs that were written about me, while the ClA also made sure to include subtle clues and references to me in many other songs as well! The songs Ghost And The Reaper and My Sweet Mystery by The Dark Element and the song Infinity are about me and my protector Chip, while the songs Cool For The Summer (written from my perspective) and Dangerous 'Woman' (written from Chip's perspective) and Confident (about how I sometimes see Chip as an enemy) are about my thoughts about my lover Chip. The songs Diamonds and When It All Comes Down and Neon Lights and Only Girl In The World and Euphoria and Alpha & Omega by Swarm and Young Gods and 34 + 35 (and all other similar lyrics that include words like down under and sweet and fruit/food/flower terms and big terms and cake etc) and many of the recent mainstream pop songs that include numbers and big terms and compIiments and food/fruit related terms etc are based on my story with my protectors, and the songs The Dark Element and Endless Forms Most Beautiful and Shoemaker and Endlessness and Digital Deceit etc include references to me, and the songs Yours Is An Empty Hope and Weak Fantasy and Tribal by NW and Kingdom Come and Paradise Of The Architect are about me and Chip and the new system, as are the songs Parasite by Anette and The Signal 🔥 and World Ablaze by KsE...

[@FrozenMermaid666]

Most songs (and most movies etc) made over the past decades are either inspired by me & Chip and our stories that the agency decided for us or they contain subtle references to me & Chip and The New World that they included on purpose -- including most songs sung by Gaga (Dance In The Dark, Lovegame, Perfect Illusion, Judas, Poker Face etc) and the songs Summertime Sadness and Cheap Thrills and Strange Love (also most other songs sung by Halsey) and most songs by Blackbriar (which were secretly inspired by me/elements that reflect me) and most songs by Epica and The Dark Element (which contain secret references to us and to the New World) and most songs by Nightwish (the newer ones since DPP are directly about me & Chip aka the heavenly spy referenced in Weak Fantasy and the new/totalitarian system aka The Keystone Earth / The Night / The Great Escape / The Dark / The Kingdom Come etc, while the oIder ones are directly and indirectly inspired by me and Disney characters that reflect me) and songs like Vermillion 1 & 2 and Ice Queen and Digital Deceit (most After Forever songs contain secret references to me included by the ClA) and the songs Rich Girl and Piece Of Me and Lucky (secretly about me The Star / The Stars and the 'lucky' one and the life of total isolation/lonelines decided for me by the ClA since day one) and the 'Love' The Way You Lie songs and Skyscraper and Hot & Cold and Love Me Harder (most other songs sung by those 2 singers and most songs sung by Demi include more than one subtle reference to me that the ClA included) and the song One & Only (most songs sung by Adele contain secret references to me and things that reflect me, and they are written with a heartbreak/sadness theme) and the song Nymphetamine (secretly inspired by me The Nymph, while most CoF lyrics are indirectly about me, as they are inspired by mythological characters that only reflect me) the song Daylight by Eyes Of Eden and, pretty much all of these newer songs that were made over the past decade contain at least one reference or a few subtle references to me/words that reflect me & Chip that the agency included on purpose, as a sign of ownership and to show my importance...

[@FrozenMermaid666]

The songs Pan and Tribal are about me and the new system and the new Nightwish lyric video for the song Pan also includes subtle symbolism about me, where they used Chess symbolism to show my importance (where the Queen element representing me destroys the pawns) and they also made references to me (The Sea Lady) and to the Total Planetary Reset ('Reset the world') which is to happen after the system is replaced, which means the entire planet is to be restructured/reset based on my projects!

[@TankTheTech]

Not ashamed to say I teared up when finally hearing Alissa do some clean vocals on an Arch Enemy track. This one if my favorite of the three singles to be released so far, and this is gonna be one of the albums I'm most excited for this year.

[@nuno]

I love the combo of growl plus clean vocals, like Fear Factory or Amorphis did almost 30 years ago. Alissa has an amazing voice, let her use it. Agree?

[@Soothing-Spirit]

Letting her use the full range of her voice is the next evolution of this band. Bravo! Love It!!!

[@powskier]

I was thinking the same thing. Death metal is a crowded genre. But having a vocalist of this quality and letting her push the boundaries of the genre is a good thing. Kind of like what Opeth does, but in Arch Enemy's own way.

[@justryanism]

I feel like if it was anyone else i'd be like eww clean arch enemy vocals, but I mean, why bottleneck her talent.

Can we, as metalheads, appreciate something? Alissa has the vocal chops to have had a stellar career in any mainstream genre and she also has the looks to get noticed and promoted by the industry that cares about that a lot. Instead, she chose to be one of us and this metalhead appreciates the great music we've gotten as a result and the shows we get to go to because of her choice. \m/-_-\m/

Rock on man

[@CloudyNebula]

An absolute beast of a song, I have been having the blast of a lifetime with it. I'd gladly pay for a full album made entirely with songs such as Handshake With Hell and House of Mirrors. I love how this song brings back a huge 80's vibe in form, structure and energy. It's a kind of sound that is not so common anymore nowadays, and I am super into it. The way Arch Enemy blends that with their own sound makes it feel revitalized and a breath of fresh air to me. To some extent, it's what I dig from bands such as Unleash the Archers, albeit with a different approach. I also love the duality of this song and how the calm, melodic and sort of mellow sections build up to explosions of metal energy. Here Arch Enemy mixes this brutality and beauty in one really cohesive package that is topped off with a truly classic feel on the solos. Great job guys, please keep them coming!! \m/

[@rockriverash3120]

I mean, look: Johann and also Angela didn't sing clean. It means that "old school" Arch Enemy is a bit more brutal if you know what I mean. But Alissa has got such a good voice (during growling and clean singing). I would be a bit lost potential if she don't sing clean. I trust in Michael, Jeff, Daniel, Sharlee and Alissa that they all try to arrive a good balance between the "two styles". But I hope that they don't change too much. I mean it would be "not Arch Enemy" if there is more clean singing than growling/screaming/shouting and (I just said that) I'm sure that they use it in a moderational way to "prevent" the Arch Enemy sound we all love so much!

[@celticluna1691]

this isn't her first time singing clean honestly

The mix between Alissa's clean and harsh vocals sounds spot on!

Will be a great chapter for Arch Enemy if they continue to use Alissa's voice to its full potential.. Her growl is plenty impressive but Her clean vocals are amazing..

Absolutely stunning. Love a singer that can be melodic and hit that growl as well.

I did not expect to hear some clean vocals on this song and I absolutely love the flare it adds to this song! I'm loving this direction AE is taking. I hope to one day get the chance to see them live.

Great band! My daughters and I enjoy your music a lot. What a voice Alissa has! Hello from Costa Rica!

[@TheHookBoy]

Alissa, you will never read this, but I still want to say it is nice hearing “your” voice again! The first time I heard you was when the “Business Suits and Combat Boots” music video was released. The growl of a demon and the voice of an angel coming from one person shocked and amazed me. Please don’t go back to only growling. Your voice was the embodiment of dichotomy and was why I listened to those records over and over. Using both voice is what made you amazing in my eyes.
