Released on September 8, 2017, via Century Media Records, Will To Power was the band’s tenth studio album. It was historic for two reasons:
The album’s theme, as described by guitarist Michael Amott, revolves around "the unyielding force inside us all to overcome, adapt, and succeed."
The Limited Edition of Will To Power (often labeled as “Limited E‑Digipak” or “Limited Edition CD+DVD”) included exclusive content not found on the standard jewel case or digital versions.
It must be stated clearly: Piracy is illegal and hurts artists. Arch Enemy is an independent‑minded band that relies on touring and merchandise sales, but also on legitimate record sales and streams.
The legal way to obtain a CD‑rip is:
Many fans share CD‑rips within private, lossless‑only communities under “fair use for backup purposes,” but the legal line remains clear: distribution without permission is copyright infringement.
If you encountered this file on peer-to-peer networks or private torrent trackers (often tagged with [Scene] or [WEB]), the "Limited E- -CD-Rip-" nomenclature implies a strict ripping standard. Typically, such rips include:
| Feature | Standard Edition | Limited Edition CD | |--------|----------------|---------------------| | Tracks | 10 | 11 | | Bonus track | No | “The Zine (remix)” | | Lossless rip available | Yes | Yes (but rarer) | | Streaming has bonus? | No | No (except Japan) |
If you meant something else by “useful content” (e.g., guitar tabs, lyrics analysis, drum transcriptions, or how to identify a fake rip), let me know and I’ll narrow it down.
