Archived trees are kept closed by the function
`org-cycle-hide-archived-subtrees', which is called by
`org-cycle-hook'.  You could define a tag of your choice
and then put a function into org-cycle-hook that uses a let form
to bind `org-archive-tag' to the chosen tag and then calls
`org-cycle-hide-archived-subtrees' to do the work.

Hope this gets you on the path.
