Angra - To Go On Hiatus, Following Anniversary Tour Of 'Temple Of Shadows' Album


Prog/power metal institution Angra have annunoced that they will be taking a break from all activities. But before the official hiatus begins, the Brazil-based group will perform a string of special shows in their homeland, celebrating the 20th anniversary of their highly-acclaimed record Temple Of Shadows. More tour dates will follow in early 2025.

Angra said in a statement: "Dear fans and friends, it is with mixed emotions that we announce a sabbatical period in Angra's activities. After more than 11 years of intense dedication, composing, recording, and performing in various cities and countries around the world, we feel it is time to stop and recharge our batteries. This break is necessary so that we can return even stronger and more inspired.

"We know it will be hard to stay away from the stage as Angra, and we will miss the friendship and great relationship we have as a band. We are deeply grateful for the unconditional support and passion you have always shown for our music. Without you, Angra wouldn’t be what it is!

"Before we enter this hiatus, we have some special events planned. Soon we will release our acoustic DVD, recorded at the Ópera de Arame, which we are extremely proud of. In October and November, we will embark on an European tour, and between late 2024 and March 2025, we will embark on the 'Interlude' tour, where we will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the album 'Temple Of Shadows' and perform the greatest hits of our career. We invite all of you to join us at these final shows before the pause, so we can celebrate these unforgettable moments together.

"During this period, the band members will focus on other personal and professional projects. We will always stay close to our fans in one way or another through these endeavors. We will remain connected through social media and promise to keep you informed about our next steps. Stay tuned to angra.net for information on show dates and Meet & Greet packs. See you soon, and may music continue to unite us!"

I really hope this means that they'll get rid of Fabio. He was amazing in Rhapsody, but he's not right for Angra. Now, let's get Edu back, or bring in Daniel Heiman.

Besides that, the records that they've done with him has, according to me, been the worst ones in the history of this band. So a little vacation might be really good for them.
