I said it for many years and I say it again: You canΒ΄t thrust Alissa!
And see, she puls of the same shjt again she did with The Agonist. SheΒ΄s cooking secretly behind the scenes and without a warning she gives the actual band the finger just for a level up.
There is nothing wrong with going forward from time to time, but the way she is doing it is simply awful.
I hope it goes the other way for her this time. SheΒ΄s was and still is a arrogant, selfish walking red flag π©π

Saw gnr in 1990. The 2 terrible use your illusion albums had not yet been released and they played a load of those songs to a non-plussed crowd. They were disappointing live then, would certainly not pay to see them now. Always treated fans poorly with late show Diva behaviour. Do love appetite for destruction though; album of my youth. Can't have everything i guess.

AI Overview

No, the melodic death metal band Arch Enemy has not broken up. However, they have recently parted ways with their long-time vocalist Alissa White-Gluz after a 12-year tenure with the band.
Both the band and White-Gluz made separate statements on November 23, 2025, confirming the split was amicable and teasing future projects.
Arch Enemy announced that "wherever there is an ending, there is also a beginning" and that they would "See you in 2026," suggesting a continuation with a new vocalist. They are currently still scheduled for a European and North American tour in 2025/2026.
Alissa White-Gluz thanked fans and announced plans for her solo career, releasing a single called "The Room Where She Died" shortly after the announcement. She also promised "big news in 2026".
The band, founded by guitarist Michael Amott in 1995, has had previous vocalist changes, with Alissa White-Gluz replacing Angela Gossow in 2014, who in turn had replaced original vocalist Johan Liiva in 2000. Angela Gossow continues to manage the band.

Arch Enemy is now fullfilling their contracts for 2026 and then call it quits. The band was only good with Alissa.

I stopped listening to Helloween since they got the most arrogant former members back. Kiske was never good live, and him forcing the band to drop an entire tour leg after he spend so many years disparaging the band… do Weiki, Andi and Markus have any shred of self-respect left, or nostalgia tours of their first third and fourth albums just brings more money than playing the good stuff?

If you actually read the Cradle of Filth lawsuit, you could answer that question. Paul is suing them for still selling merch with his face on it all these years later.
