In March of 2014, Music/AlissaWhiteGluz announced that she had been chosen as the next frontwoman for [[Music/ArchEnemy Arch Enemy]]. She also revealed that the band - as fans knew it - was "over", and that Vicky Psarakis would be taking over as vocalist. Though the change has inevitably produced some backlash, the band have taken it in stride and produced two albums since: ''Eye of Providence'' in 2015, and ''Five'' in 2016. After bouts of touring, The Agonist went into production of their sixth album ''Orphans'', released September 20, 2019. Their final EP, ''Days Before The World Wept'', followed in 2021. These last two releases were shortlisted for the Juno heavy metal album of the year in 2020 and 2022 respectively.
