Arch Enemy Fans React to New Singer - 'Lauren Is a Beast'

Arch Enemy has announced Lauren Hart as the band's new singer, and fans are having some strong reactions.

Hart replaces Alissa White-Gluz, who departed Arch Enemy in November. White-Gluz tookover for long-time singer Angela Gossow who transitioned to a new role as the band's manager in 2014. Johan Liiva preceded Gossow before departing in 2000.

Some Arch Enemy fans immediately recognized Hart's work as a member of the Los Angeles-based melodic death metal band Once Human. Others who were not as familiar with Hart's background drew comparisons between her vocals and those of Gossow.
