THE AGONY SCENE -

THE AGONY SCENE - GET DAMNED - CENTURY MEDIA  
Biohazard mixed with some of the many Swedish sounding American metal bands of the past decade, that is The Agony Scene in a sentence. Now on Century Media Get Damned features 11 songs that are nothing if not consistent. Barnburner, Adversary, Rattle Me Bones, Opposition and Will To Bleed are good indicators of where this band lies. The shouts and screams of Mike Williams aid the said direction so do the guitar work of Chris Emmons and Brain Hodges. Any catchiness and melody is provided via the As I Lay Dying, just to name one, sounding segments and the hardcore-ish edge via the famous New York sound. - Anna Tergel
