ANGRA To Go On Hiatus In 2025

Angra is sadly going on hiatus in 2025 following their Temple Of Shadows tour. According to a statement published by Angra, the band's members will "focus on other personal and professional projects" during the hiatus. Angra also states they plan on coming back at some point, but simply feel it's time to stop and recharge.

Angra originally formed in 1991 and went on hiatus in 2007. Angra returned in 2009 and will continue to be a band until 2025. Angra has released 10 albums over the course of their career, with Cycles Of Pain being their latest in 2023.

"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 endeavours. 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!."
