It's Official: AT THE GATES To Reunite For Select Shows

October 18, 2007

Legendary Swedish metal band AT THE GATES will reunite for several shows next summer. Confirmed dates so far are as follows:

Jul. 4-6 - Ruisrock, Finland
Jul. 31 - Aug. 2 - Wacken Open Air, Germany
Aug. 15-17 - Bloodstock, Derby, UK

Commented guitarist Anders Björler (currently in THE HAUNTED): "Well, it felt like the timing was right for once. We have been talking about a possible reunion for years now, but this was the first time everything fell into place. For me personally, it feels like getting closure. The break-up over ten years ago was abrupt and left a bad vibe between us that took years to get over. We have a better relationship today and a more relaxed approach to who we are and what we do. The time is right to get together and play some shows Try to catch us live in the summer 2008. It could be your last chance."

AT THE GATES is:

Tomas Lindberg (DISFEAR, THE CROWN, LOCKUP) - vocals
Anders Björler (THE HAUNTED) - guitar
Martin Larsson - guitar
Jonas Björler (THE HAUNTED) - bass
Adrian Erlandsson (NEMHAIN, BRUJERIA, CRADLE OF FILTH) - drums
