Written by Karla, Chile: Hi, my name is Karla, I have 13 years old and Im a greatest fan of Arch Enemy and specially of Angela Gossow! Well, I first heard Arch Enemy until 2 years ago, but I have all the albums and I love "try" to sing the songs :D. I think that Angela is the best female singer in the Death Metal, and she shows that the womans also can sing guttural, this is no longer only a matter for men. Arch Enemy is my favourite band in all the fucking world! , Angela is my idol! I hope someday to sing like her, but while Im learning the techniques. I also hope someday to go to a concert of Arch Enemy to finally see the band that moves my world. The lyrics are really good: a call to rebellion aganist the system. The instrumental of the band are simply awesome: the strength of the guitar, the batery so fast, ¡Its really fantastic! But what I like is definitely the incredible voice of the Goddess of Metal: Angela Gossow. Well, hopefully a good time, and still rocking! Very much greeting from Chile! Bye!

Written by Julie,Belgium: i started to listen to Arch Enemy about a year ago and from the first minute I heard AE is just fell in love with the band,especially with angela, when I saw her at graspop this summer I was thrilled , I waited 1 hour and 30 minutes at the signing boot, when I saw her,I just couldn't move and i know it sounds ridiculous but I even started to cry after the signing session when I'm frustrated I listen to AE and the music calms me down,the lyrics are awsome.AE became my passion, angela my hero in my eyes she's the perfect women: beauty.Also, AE is the first band in my life that I've been such a huge fan of. In the past I just liked bands like GN'R and Nirvana for example, but ever since I got to know AE, it justifull,strong,agressive, and talented I can't wait to see AE againmy dream is to start a tribute band to Arch Enemy, but i'm a real bad singer, I won't give up on it, i bought the zen of screaming but I didn't found time to practice yeti'm searching someone who can teach me how to grunt.anyway, AE is my favourite band.It's my drug .

Written by Marcel,Netherlands: I'm Marcel from Holland and I'm a fan for almost a year now. Ever since I got to know AE, I visited every show I could, even foreign ones. I really love the way AE relates to their fans, especially Angela. I admire the way she stays in touch with the fans via MySpace, blogs, eBay etc. When she meets the one United Enemies member at Graspop, she asks for his name and it puts a big smile upon her face. Also, when a poster gets lost in the mail, the shop will send another, and Angela includes a flyer with a personal message. They also take a lot of time after shows to talk to fans and make pictures. I think that's all awesome. Arch Enemy caught me and it does that still. The music is awesome. Not just the lyrics and the power that's in it, but also the quality. It's not just about hammering the guitar and drums and screaming simultaneously, it all really connects perfectly to each other. There are a lot of (more) popular metalbands than AE that don't have this connection and I really don't like these bands.Finally, I love that AE doesn't make music just to be commercial, AE does it for the music and the fans. That's a thing that many (metal)bands forget when getting more popular. Other bands use their popularity to make more and more money, AE doesn't do this and they've been around for 12 years. They don't ask a fortune to let you attend to a gig or to buy a CD or something. I could go on like this forever but I don't think that's the purpose of this page so I kept it short. Keep up the good work and you'll never lose this fan and without a doubt, you'll keep a lot of others too!

Written by Clinton,USA : Hello, my name is Clinton and I am from Louisville, Kentucky. I first heard about Angela and Arch Enemy during the summer of 2005. It was the hot, sunny summer day of Jul. 31 ..... Indianapolis, IN ..... Verizon Wireless Music Center. I remember being twelve at the time and not knowing much about METAL at all. Arch Enemy got me into Melodic Death Metal/Death Metal in general, one of the first bands that I ever saw live and instantly loved them. If I remember correctly, Arch Enemy opened up with 'Nemesis', the first Arch Enemy song to touch and hit my ears, it was quite a beautiful moment in my life. Man, did they fucking destroy that 2nd stage. Angela was fucking amazing and her stage presence was that of over one billion Bengali tigers ;). No other band or frontman had the stage presence of Angela or Arch Enemy that day. In my opinion, they even put Iron Maiden to shame that day. I respect Angela and what she does, I could never compete with her at trading growls. Angela could teach a few 'death metal' bands a thing or two about growling. Though, I am not a vocalist, Angela has definitely given me strength! her growls, her screams, her voice, she has helped me write a lot of music. Arch Enemy are my favourite Melodic Death Metal band and among my favourites of all time, only behind Carcass and DEATH. "The Symphonies Of Destruction. My way and YOUR way to deal with the frustration, the anger, the pain, to channel it and get it out of the system. I cant live without music, it makes me feel alive and strong, no matter what. I hope you can feel the power of music too! " - ANGELA GOSSOW And I do! If I am feeling down, sad, angry, or whatever, I always know that I have Arch Enemy on my iTunes, iPod, or somewhere in my STEREO. I'd like to thank Angela Gossow, the band members and crew of Arch Enemy, the Angela Gossow COMMUNITY, and of course, the Webmiss. You guys are such AWESOME and nice people! THANK YOU! -Clinton

I'm Archan from India. I came to know about Arch Enemy a few years back and the first song I heard was'Nemesis'. I liked them instantly. But till then I had no idea that the lead singer of the band is a woman. When I found that out I couldn't believe it..And since then, there is no-stopping..today my day is not complete without listening Angela's voice. I must admit that, it was Angela's powerful voice in the first place that attracted me to AE but their mixing of harmony n melody with the metal is just awesome. Frankly, I love all of their songs.
And there is one more strong point about their music..Lyrics. I think their lyrics are very positive n powerful as well...personally those words always cheer me up and help me a lot to fight against the various sufferings of life...I have a lot of respect for Arch Enemy and specially for u Angela. U and your music are an inspiration for guyz like me. You are simply amazing..keep rocking!!!
And finally it's true that, "We walk this earth With fire in ourhands" n there are many people "Waiting to see us Struggle and fall"but it also true that "We are strong We are one" and therefore "WeWill RiseÂ…!!!"

My name is Dominique and I must say that I am really impressed by how Angela carries herself and her vocals. I love her. We have the same birthday!!! She's really awesome and being that I'm a girl and I am really into metal-I love her for stepping out into the metal genre. To me it's kind of like saying, "Yeah,we're women but we can rock harder than any guy out there!" and that's exactly what Angela does. She's awesome and she's a metalhead but feminine too! I must say that if I started my own band and they asked who influences me, Angela would definitely be one of those people.
Many people ask me why I am into metal or they can't believe that I'm into metal because: 1. I'm African American and 2. I'm a girl but I just say "I don't choose to like something based on my race or my gender, I like it because it touches my heart, it's very influential, it's not profane and you can rock out to it! It's metal baby and I will never stop being a metalhead!" And that is why I love Angela Gossow! She wll never stop just because someone may not like that she's a woman in a metal band! She is her and she stays true to herself and that's what makes a great person like Angela so successful and influential.

First off all, I'd like to say that I'm from Venezuela. The First songI heard of Arch Enemy was Ravenous. I remember that was around 2002, Ifriend of mine told me that the singer of this band was a Girl. I toldhim that there is no way that it could be a woman! So I decided towatch the video... I was extremely amazed, really, I couldn't believewhat i was seeing, not only because of the power of Angela's voice,but also because she is beatiful!
From that time, I cannot spend morethan 2 days without listen to an Arch Enemy song... I've bought allthe records, the latest DVD's everything.. What definitely make mefell in love with Angela, was when I heard her talking with her normalvoice, I mean, I couldn't believe that she have such a beatiful voice,and additional she is kind and charming! I love you Angela!Arch Enemy show me that it is possible to mix all the brutality ofmetal, with beauty and harmony of sounds and quality of executions ofall Arch Enemy's members. I'm kind of sad because you Haven't camearound here (Venezuela) you have such a big FanBase here and, mepersonally, would die to see Angela Singing! And even more to get toknow her... Please Consider us in your next Tour!!!

I had known about Arch Enemy for quite sometime...probably around the time 'Burning Bridges' first came out, but I didn't know much about them and had only listened to them from time to time. It wasn't until I first heard "Web of Lies" from the 'Wages of Sin' album that I was just taken back. The insane guitar riffs/solos and intense drumming made the song itself, but the vocals went above and beyond.
It wasn't until I actually bought the album that I realized it was a female. I was shocked that a woman could sound this incredible and put so much power into music, but she does. She is nothing short of remarkable and this is why she is my number one inspiration in all that's wicked and metal! Ever since I unwrapped my first Arch Enemy album and gave it a spin, she gave me something to hold on to and for that I thank her! Angela is the TRUE reigning queen of metal!
