Brazilian metallers ANGRA will play their first show with their new singer on board 70000 Tons Of Metal, the world’s biggest heavy metal cruise.

Singer Eduardo “Edu” Falaschi quit ANGRA in May. He explained in a statement, “There comes a moment in a man’s life when it is necessary to make a radical decision in order to move forward with dignity and renewed energy.”

Falaschi joined ANGRA in 2000 and appeared on the band’s last four studio albums — 2001’s “Rebirth”, 2004’s “Temple Of Shadows”, 2006’s “Aurora Consurgens” and 2010’s “Aqua”.

In January 2013, 40 heavy metal bands and 2,000 fans from all over the world will go to the Caribbean to take over the luxury cruise ship “Majesty Of The Seas” for 5 days and 4 nights.
