12/03/2020 AngelragE Drummer Matt Rutherford Dead At 42

   Just months after pulling out of recording sessions for AngelragE's Heresy CD, original AngelragE drummer Matt Rutherford has died, reportedly of Covid 19; in a Facebook post, his wife Joelle wrote, "It’s no surprise that a lot of people are shocked and many of you have been asking me what happened. Matt’s health had been on the decline for a while so when he tested positive for Covid on Tuesday, i got pretty scared. One of Matt’s problems was that he had breathing issues and he was regularly taking Advair. there were a lot of other things I worried about  but my main concern was that with his shortness of breath from having the coronavirus, he would suddenly stop breathing or get dizzy and fall down the stairs. We don’t really know for sure what did it in the end but i was having him check in with me every few hours and at about noon the next day, he seemed to be feeling OK and breathing better. unfortunately, judging by the time his sister spoke with him and the time of my first text that went unanswered, something went wrong between 2:30 and 4:30 PM and he went peacefully in his sleep. There may be other potential factors but most likely, the Covid was the very last slap on an already bruised and beaten body.  I knew in my bones that something was wrong and I just wish I acted on those instincts right away instead of waiting because I was worried about him being annoyed with me for having people wake him up. I’ve been trying to tell myself that in all likelihood, even if I was in the house, I wouldn’t have known because he looked so peaceful, he probably didn’t make a sound. Regardless.... all of those what if’s are just total agony right now.... Always trust your instincts."

08/13/2020 Shock As Carpenter OUT

   A visibly shaken Garland Triest confirmed today that vocalist Nancy Carpenter will not be singing on the Heresy album; a devastating blow to the band after the departure of longtime drummer Matt Rutherford, who - embroiled in an acrimonious divorce and custody battle for his 2 children - was unable to participate in the project. Triest, who said he was still processing the murder of his niece Amanda, has commented publicly that he composed the songs on Heresy for Carpenter's voice and characterized her as "irreplaceable," so it's anyone's guess as to whether the album - to which she also contributed lyrics - will ever see the light of day. There are tantalizing clips of several of the new songs including Paragon Meadows, Siren, Collide, and Moonspell in behind the scenes videos released by the band in 2019.

07/04/2020 AngelragE Guitarist's Niece Murdered

    On what should have been a celebratory day - his birthday - AngelragE guitarist Garland Triest awoke to the shocking news that his niece Amanda had been brutally murdered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin at only 37 years old. The two had remained close throughout her life. In an emotional post on Facebook - his last - Triest expressed shock as well as frustration that police, overwhelmed by Covid lockdowns and BLM protests, were unable to offer much assistance. The suspect (pictured), who used an alias, "Val," remains at large.

03/13/2020 New Drummer Announced

   Longtime AngelragE fans were left stunned with the announcement that original drummer Matt Rutherford would not be playing on the band's forthcoming Heresy CD. Guitarist Garland Triest relayed via social media, "It is with great sadness I announce that our dear Matt is no longer able to continue with us on our journey. I will be forever proud of what he and I accomplished with AngelragE and he will always be a part of the family. His contributions were truly profound and he will be greatly missed. Please join us in wishing him the very best and also in welcoming our new drummer, Dean Guldswog. Dean and I worked together in the late 1980s and early 1990s and aside from being my best friend from back home, he is a world class drummer who is more than capable of stepping up to the challenge of bringing these new songs to life and doing Matt’s legacy justice as well as bringing his own technical expertise to the band. We are currently working on completing demos for the Heresy album and stoked to be working together again! Stay tuned!"

02/29/2020 AngelragE Investor Dead On Leap Day

   While not a familiar name to AngelragE fans, drummer Steve Blank was a very important figure behind the scenes, regularly present at rehearsals and offering financial support to facilitate the recording of the Ω (Omega) album. In an emotional tribute to his former bandmate, guitarist Kenny Kasman of The Kazmaniax wrote, "I will always miss my friend Steve Blank, who passed away yesterday morning. We played together on more occasions than I can recall. I loved him very much. Here is Steve playing on my original Beacon Shines Bright. The shock of his passing hurts a lot. ...Steve, I am now, and have always been.... Your Friend, Kenny."

[Sadly, Kenny would join his friend in death December 21, 2021 - EDIT]

   "I waited 13 years to replace the original lineup of AngelragE... 13. years. Mostly out of respect for the incredibly talented souls that were a part of it, but also because I never found the right people. When I did, it was literally all at once and they had been right under my nose all along. The new version of AngelragE is what I always wanted it to be. I had no idea back in the 90's when I set out to create music with beautiful, delicate parts contrasted by crushingly heavy riffs, that a whole genre would emerge around that style. Metalcore has become hugely popular, and I was doing it long before it was called Metalcore. I finally have the beauty and the beast combination of lead singers that I originally envisioned in Nancy Carpenter and Shaun Pilon, an amazing rhythm section with Michael Courtois and Matt Rutherford, and, to be honest, I'd better step up my game, because this band is a.ma.zing! Brace yourself." - gar
