Swedish/German extreme metaler’s Arch Enemy will release their first DVD, Live Apocalypse, on August 8 via Century Media (July 24 in Europe). The disc is "chock-full of phenomenal live footage, in-depth interviews and promotional video clips," according to the official press release. Commented guitarist Mike Amott: "The Live Apocalypse DVD is now finally complete. This shaped up to be an ultra cool two-disc affair, and I honestly couldn't be happier with it. The main show is from The Forum in London, U.K. (December '04), and we also have footage from Manchester, U.K. in December '05 (there'll be three songs included from that). There are tons of extras and special features, as there should be. The artwork was done by Niklas Sundin of Cabin Fever Media. Andy Sneap's audio mix (5.1 and stereo) is so heavy; it almost blew my speakers out! He really captured the live feel and power of the show; it's like you are right there in the audience. Brilliant! This DVD crushes some of my favorite metal DVDs from my own collection — and I have a sick collection. Once again, I am happy that we work with the best. They make us look and sound great."
