In a startling turn of events, three former members of the all-female metal outfit Dogma—vocalist Grace Jane Pasturini (Lilith), guitarists Amber Maldonado (Lamia) and Patri Grief (Rusalka)—have stepped forward with a scathing open letter accusing the band’s management of manipulation, dishonesty and exploitation.
The statement—made public online on October 26, 2025—claims:
“We were part of Dogma. We loved this project, but what’s being sold today is not Dogma. During the tours we saw unilateral decisions, broken promises, manipulation, mistreatment, and lies to the fans. The person who now controls the project is a threat to Dogma’s future... He turned a band into a brand, and people into disposable pieces.”
In response, Dogma’s official channels issued a counter-statement:
“We are aware of recent online statements by some former, non-original members of Dogma... We remain fully committed to the values that define Dogma: authenticity, freedom of expression, and connection through art.
As the dispute escalates publicly, fans and industry watchers alike are questioning the authenticity of the project moving forward—asking who truly has control, and whether what’s being presented is the genuine band or something re-packaged into a brand. The ongoing debate raises concerns around transparency, artistic respect and the treatment of performers in the modern music business.
With both sides publicly speaking out, the future of Dogma remains uncertain—yet this moment may very well become a turning point in how bands and their management navigate accountability and integrity in the heavy music world.
