ARCH ENEMY, LACUNA COIL Singers Present Award To SLAYER: Photos Available
August 27, 2006ARCH ENEMY frontwoman Angela Gossow has posted the following message on her MySpace page:
"I was invited to the Kerrang! Awards on Thursday [August 24]. It's all industry and business, not much of a metal party with bands like PLACEBO and MUSE. I had to do a couple of Jagermeister shots with Kerry King [SLAYER] to get over this blasphemy. But oh well. Me and Cristina [Scabbia, LACUNA COIL] were there to give the 'Hall Of Fame' award to SLAYER — the only band who truly deserved their award! 'Reign in Blood' (and chop those suit-and-tie-wearing corporates into pieces please)."

"Flying these days is a huge hassle. You are not even allowed to bring some toothpaste in your handluggage. I made it through the metal detector barefoot (even flip flops have to be taken off) and were asked to throw my chapstick away. I looked at the security guy and said, 'Listen, I am German, non-religious, love my life and will NOT attempt to blow up the plane with a lipstick.' Needless to say, he did not get the joke. I felt a personal triumph though that he didn't discover my saline nasal spray. Ha! Rebellion.
"We are in full preparation mode for Gigantour. We haven't been touring for a while (did the European festivals instead) and I struggle to remember the essentials I have to bring for living on a tour bus. SANITIZER! IPOD! KEYBOARD! LAPTOP! And a million other things. We will be going straight to Japan and Australia after this, so we will be six weeks non-stop away from home. I am looking forward to it a lot; it means I will have people around me who are doing the thinking and organizing for me (hello, Woody, Mr. Tour Manager, I am talking to you, hehe…) and I will meet a lot of cool people who actually like what we do musically. It's a reward money can't buy!
"Please stay healthy and pure fucking metal until we come to town! I want to see you crazy lot in the front row!"
