Archangel is the tenth
studio album from American
groove metal band
Soulfly. It was released on August 14, 2015 through
Nuclear Blast Entertainment. It is the band's shortest album to date, running thirty-six and a half minutes. It is the band's last album to feature bassist
Tony Campos, who left the band shortly after recording to join
Fear Factory. With a peak position of number 130 on the
Billboard 200, it is Soulfly's second-lowest charting album to date (behind 2005's
Dark Ages, which peaked at number 155). The statistic is common with the decreasing number of album sales worldwide in all genres of music, as digital releases have taken over the market. The ensuing "We Sold Our Souls To Metal" Tour to promote Archangel's release featured Soulfly playing as many as 7 songs from the album live each night, which is the first time since the Primitive Tour that the band has played the majority of a new album live.
