They were worshipped in Japan even before they got famous in the rest of the world. That's why after the in England recorded "Live apocalypse" DVD a recording from Tokyo was done, from which the song choice differs from the first one.

Although Angela stresses how popular the band had already been in Japan with their debut "Black earth" before her joining the boys, even said Japanese audience gets the terrific "Fields of desolation" from said album only as an instrumental outro... Instead, they can enjoy two other evergreens: the crusher "Dark insanity" (from the debut) and the incredibly vivid "Silverwing". More of that! But the current line-up is also really "big in Japan": five awards given out by the biggest Japanese Metal mag went to Arch Enemy and "Rise of the tyrant". In spite of this, "Wages of sin" dominates the set list - both successors donβt play an important role. The video clips for "Revolution begins" and "I will live again" are bonus material as well as the interview recordings, travel impressions (the focus is on the concert, though), the big stage with its podiums, the lightshow and Angelaβs almost all-white outfit.
