| | The Only Arch Enemy albums that exist, ranked | | 7 |  | Arch Enemy
Black Earth
Meh. Not quite 1-6 but I still have a ton of nostalgia with this, and Bury Me An Angel is still a straight banger. Somewhere between a 6 and a 7 for me. | | 6 |  | Arch Enemy
Deceivers
There used to be a top 5, completely separate tier for me. Today, it is a top 6. This album fucking rules, and after this there is a massive drop in quality for me. This is pretty much the whole reason I am making this list. Has been on repeat since this morning. Finally, an album with Alissa that I can actually enjoy thoroughly front to back. Always thought she was a great replacement for Angela, but those albums never connected to me like this one. 8.5/10 | | 5 |  | Arch Enemy
Doomsday Machine
This is the only one from their early era that I don't have nostalgia with because I didn't listen to it until years later for some reason, but my goodness. Album kicks me in the fucking face every time I press play. One of the best openers ever. | | 4 |  | Arch Enemy
Stigmata
A little lower than Burning Bridges/Anthems because the vocals aren't QUITE up to par, but some of those solos are straight fire and actually better than those on Burning Bridges. This was my favorite of theirs back in the day, but honestly #1-6 on this list are basically all back to back. | | 3 |  | Arch Enemy
Anthems of Rebellion
This is the one that got me into the band. I remember this getting lukewarm reviews back when this came out when I was in high school. Every negative review is straight up incorrect, album slaps. | | 2 |  | Arch Enemy
Burning Bridges
Pre-Angela Arch Enemy is insanely underrated. I actually used to like it way more than Angela era back in the day (although not for the vocals, moreso for the more gothic atmosphere). This is some of the best melo-death. Brings back sleepaway camp memories for me. | | 1 |  | Arch Enemy
Wages of Sin
Best vocal performance in their discog, best riffs, best drums, just all around an absolute monster of an album. 9.7/10 | |

08.12.22 | Apologies for not including their other albums, they are just kinda "meh" to me and I can't really rank them cause I don't give a fuck. Don't hate them, don't love them, just kinda 'whatever' them and unworthy of rank. | DungeonBoy
08.12.22 | 2 was my favorite until 1 came out and now I kinda hate 1 and 2 is GOAT | DarkSideOfLucca
08.12.22 | Hating 1 is not based, but loving 2 is based so your opinions even out to neutral | TheSpirit
08.12.22 | Nice ranking. Out of these albums, I would rank it 2,3,4,1,7,5 and haven't heard the newest but I am happy to see people are saying it's better than their last record. | DarkSideOfLucca
08.12.22 | Hell yeah man m///
And I am so happy about the new album. I gave up hope on these fellas releasing a great album again many, many years ago so I am beyond excited that I finally have a new Arch Enemy album I can enjoy. These fellas were near the very top of the genre for me in middle school/high school and really helped me get into metal in general. | Flugmorph
08.12.22 | hell yeah great list keep on jammin m/ | Pikazilla
08.12.22 | 1 is 1 forever | TheSpirit
08.12.22 | For sure! As much as I rag on them for their recent stuff, it's probably only b/c I know they are capable of doing better. They were also a pretty formative metal band for me. "Nemesis" had come out when I was in my last year of middle school and through that song I got into their older discography and fell in love, particularly with Burning Bridges and Anthems of Rebellion. When I listen to them I am immediately brought back to those times. They truly were an amazing band and I am looking forward to listening to a record that fellow, partially disillusioned AE fans are enjoying. | Muzz79
08.13.22 | I used to think the 3 albums after Doomsday were lacking but I really like em now | Storm In A Teacup
08.13.22 | The picture quality of their music videos were ahead of the times not many years ago. |
