Angela Gossow Speaks On The Metal Hammer Meltdown Tour
The Arch Enemy frontwoman speaks about her excitement about heading to the UK with Sabbat and Enslaved.
Arch Enemy frontwoman Angela Gossow has spoken out about the forthcoming Metal Hammer Meltdown tour! Speaking exclusively to Metal Hammer, Gossow enthused: “We strongly felt its time to visit the shores of The United Kingdom Of Heavy Metal again! We miss you, ladies and gentlemen!!! We only did the Bloodstock Festival in 2009. It was a fantastic gig and reminded us of why we love the Amott brothers’ homeland so much.
“Even better, we are bringing the UK cult thrashers Sabbat with us and the Norwegian Sons Of Darkness, Enslaved! We will cook up a devastating setlist for this run and won’t leave any prisoners behind
Get ready for The Metal Hammer Meltdown attack!”
The Metal Hammer Meltdown tour will call at:
27th April – Wolverhampton Wulfrun hall
28th April – Glasgow O2 Academy
29th April – Manchester Academy
30th April – London HMV Forum

I really want to go to one of these dates but can’t make it to any of them I hope there are some more dates added to this tour
it does just seem to be a re-labelling of the defenders of the faith tour to be honest, which Arch Enemy have already been a part of.
I’m very interested in hearing if Grand Magus are opening as another reader suggested, if so I’ll go as Arch Enemy are always entertaining, Enslaved are an awesome band and Magus are one of my favourites.
As for Sabbat, I haven’t really got into them, but if anybody has any albums to recommend that they think are a must to check out then please let me know and I’ll be happy to give them a chance.
