Revolution Begins is an EP from Arch Enemy, released on 31 August 2007 through Century Media. It arrived in the same year as the band's seventh studio album, Rise of the Tyrant, and sits between that record and The Root of All Evil in their catalogue.

It is one of five EPs in a discography that also runs to thirteen studio albums. The Swedish melodic death metal band was formed in 1996 by guitarist Michael Amott, previously of Carcass, together with vocalist Johan Liiva. By 2007 Angela Gossow had been fronting the group for several years, having taken over from Liiva in 2000. For fans who followed that era of the band, this is a short extra chapter worth tracking down.
