The Swedish melodic death metal band At the Gates faced lineup changes and unexpected tour cancellations. There’s been a long silence, and fans are wondering, where is At the Gates now?
The 1996 Breakup And 2008 Reunion

According to Metal Archives, At the Gates broke up in 1996 at the height of their success. The breakup followed the release of their album ‘Slaughter of the Soul.’ Creative exhaustion and internal tensions were the reasons. The members pursued various musical projects after the breakup. The Björler brothers and Adrian Erlandsson formed The Haunted. Vocalist Tomas Lindberg explored different musical directions with other bands.
Metal Underground reports that the band’s 2008 reunion started as a temporary arrangement for festival appearances, but it then led to new creative endeavors and studio albums. The band released several albums after their reunion. These included ‘At War with Reality’ (2014) and ‘To Drink from the Night Itself’ (2018).
Recent Lineup Changes and New Album

At the Gates announced guitarist Jonas Stålhammar’s departure in July 2022. Original guitarist Anders Björler rejoined the band in October of the same year. This reunion with a founding member opened a new chapter for At the Gates. The band is now working on their eighth studio album, but there’s no news about it for a long time.
Current Status and Tour Cancellations

Recent developments raise concerns about the band’s status. At the Gates released a statement about their performances in 2024: “We regret to inform you that At The Gates has been forced to cancel all upcoming shows in the spring and summer 2024 due to reasons beyond our control.”
The band remains silent across their social media platforms and other channels since this announcement. This silence creates uncertainty about their immediate future.
So, At the Gates currently works on their eighth studio album following Anders Björler’s return. That’s all we know for now.
