ARCH ENEMY confirmed that their revamped lineup — featuring new vocalist LAUREN HART, who officially replaced Alissa White-Gluz on February 19 — would make its global live debut across seven shows in China from late March into early April, followed by three Japanese dates. The China/Japan run represents the first public performances of ARCH ENEMY with Hart on vocals.
Hart, formerly of Los Angeles groove-metal act Once Human, was announced as White-Gluz's replacement alongside the single "To the Last Breath." Guitarist Michael Amott praised her "remarkable voice, dedication and professionalism." A larger European "Back to the Root of All Evil" tour is scheduled for summer 2026. Coverage of the looming Asia debut generated considerable discussion in the metal press throughout mid-March.
