The metal world was shocked earlier this week with the announcement of longtime Arch Enemy vocalist Angela Gossow leaving the band. Angela took to her Facebook earlier today for one final goodbye:
Thank you for all your kind words, your support, your understanding. I am sorry some of you are really sad
So am I in many ways, it's really hard to say good-bye. I have had a lot of time to reflect on my life in 2013.. I had to turn a page. We all get to this point in our life some time.. I do embrace this change, I hope you do too.
I am very busy with Arch Enemy right now as you can imagine, they got a lot of things lined up. The music is still a 100% Arch Enemy, trust me Thank you for the last 13 years, they have been truly wonderful, I enjoyed playing live for many of you, meeting you, interacting with you. I am not sure yet what I'll do with this page, I will most likely use it to keep you up-to-date with all things Arch Enemy, my band management business and whatever else my busy little brain comes across.. thoughts, inspirations, things that make me laugh. Be well, take good care of yourselves and enjoy life. It's too short to look back.
Yours,
Angela Post by Official Angela Gossow.

Angela is certainly ready to move on and we commend her for living by her own rules.
The band have since released a new music video with new vocalist Alissa White-Gluz and are preparing for the release of War Eternal this June.
