Arch Enemy/The Black Dahlia Murder: Wrath Across North America 2026

Arch Enemy and The Black Dahlia Murder bring their Wrath Across North America 2026 tour to The Masquerade - Heaven on Tuesday, October 20. It's a double-bill of melodic death metal, and the two headliners aren't alone on the bill: Septicflesh, Crypta, and Thrown Into Exile are all on the lineup, so the night starts well before the main acts take the stage.

Arch Enemy formed in Sweden in the mid-90s and describe their sound as embodying the intensity, integrity, and lofty artistic ambitions of heavy metal. The Black Dahlia Murder has continued after the passing of frontman and co-founder Trevor Strnad in 2022, with co-founder Brian Eschbach, bassist Max Lavelle, drummer Alan Cassidy, and producer/guitarist Brandon Ellis. Both bands have a long history of touring and recording, and seeing them together on one bill is a rare pairing for the city.

With five bands on the program, it's a full night of music. Septicflesh, Crypta, and Thrown Into Exile open the evening, followed by the two headliners. The Atlanta date is an all-ages show, so it's open to everyone regardless of age.

Doors open at 5 PM at The Masquerade - Heaven, in Underground Atlanta (30303). With five acts on the bill, getting there early is a good call if you want to catch the openers.
