Largo Camino Al Inframundo... is an ongoing concert tour headlined by Swedish melodic death metal band Arch Enemy. The tour was announced on July 11, 2024[1] and general ticket sales for the shows began four days later. The first show of the tour was November 12, 2024 at Teatro Morelos in Toluca, and the closing night of the tour will be 11 December, 2024 at Circo Volador in Mexico City.
Background
[edit]Largo Camino Al Inframundo... is the most extensive Mexican tour in Arch Enemy's career, featuring 18 shows all in different cities. The band has previously performed in Mexico only 16 times, with 2 of those being the festivals Knotfest in 2016 and Hell & Heaven Metal Fest in 2022.
Largo Camino Al Inframundo... began one week after the band concluded their Rising from the North tour in Europe with In Flames and Soilwork. While on the Rising from the North tour, Arch Enemy announced their twelfth studio album Blood Dynasty and released their single "Liars & Thieves". The band has continued to perform "Liars & Thieves" (and previous single "Dream Stealer", also taken from Blood Dynasty) to promote the album, which is scheduled for release on March 28, 2025.
Upon announcing the tour, Arch Enemy guitarist and composer Michael Amott commented, "Hace mucho que Arch Enemy no es headliner en México, ¡así que estamos emocionados de anunciar esta larga gira (¡18 conciertos!) en uno de nuestros países favoritos! Nos vemos en este largo camino al inframundo…"[2].
Development
[edit]Due to high demand, Arch Enemy offered VIP upgrades (purchasable via Fans & Bands) for the tour, allowing fans access to perks[3] such as meeting the band and receiving exclusive merchandise. Arch Enemy's VIP upgrades were released on August 23, 2024.[4]
On November 20, 2024, it was announced via the band's social media profiles that, due to unknown reasons, their show in Aguascalientes four days later was relocated from Auditorio Dimo to Show Business Center.
