DOYLE is a key figure in the world renowned, blood-soaked form of music known as horror punk and part of the legendary MISFITS. He is poster child and originator of the genre, himself, has once again unleashed an evil noise on an unsuspecting world: Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein and his eponymous band, DOYLE.
LIFE OF AGONY recently released their new album ‘The Sound Of Scars’ and it was received to stunning reviews from critics and fans alike. It has also made several top album polls for 2019.
LIFE OF AGONY emerged from the New York music scene in the early ’90s with one of the most distinctive sounds in its genre. Now the band with a new album in toe ‘The Sound Of Scars’ head to Australia for a string of shows in May 2020 thanks to Silverback Touring.
Best known for its 1993 metal/crossover debut “River Runs Red” named by Rolling Stone as being one of the “100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time“ the band instantly built a die-hard, cult following attracting a wide fan base across the Metal and Hardcore Genres. For over two decades, the group toured relentlessly all over the world, sharing stages with the biggest names in rock, including Metallica, Black Sabbath, Ozzy Osbourne, Foo Fighters, and The Red Hot Chili Peppers. LOA went onto release two more studio albums ‘Ugly’ (’95) and ‘Soul Searching Sun’ (’97), before signing to major label Sony/Epic Records in 2005 to record ’Broken Valley’. In 2017, the group released the highly acclaimed ‘A Place Where There’s No More Pain’. LIFE OF AGONY has sold over one million albums to date.
LIFE OF AGONY’s hard-hitting, emotional concept album ‘The Sound of Scars’, was released October 11th, 2019. ‘The Sound of Scars’ continues the haunting narrative from the band’s groundbreaking 1993 debut ‘River Runs Red’.
