"The Arrival" is the ninth studio album released by Hypocrisy in 2004. It was more well-received by fans due to being much less nu metal-oriented than their previous album, "Catch 22".Fact|date=September 2007 It is the last album to feature long-time drummer Lars Szöke. The song, "Eraser" was made as a video. The album was also released in a strictly limited boxset (cat.-no.
