GuitarWorld.com recently spoke to Arch Enemy guitarist Michael Amott about the new album. Amott revealed that the band wrote much of the new record on the road, capturing riffs and melodies, then putting them together in post-production.
"We just started trying to piece all these things together into proper songs," Amott said. "It was kind of like a heavy metal jigsaw puzzle!"
