Life of Agony – 20 Years Strong River Runs Red Live

Releasedate: 19-06-2010; Label: I Scream Record
By: Nina Mende

Life of Agony is an alternative metal band from Brooklyn, New York that was founded about 20 years ago. As 20th anniversary gift they released a live DVD from the show in Brussels.

The live DVD also exists as CD and that is what I listened to. Fourteen songs full of live madness of Life of Agony. By listening to this album you can feel the amazing atmosphere that must have been in the venue. In front of your inner eye you can see the audience going wild, and you can also hear them going insane. You can hear the fans singing along, shouting for more and supporting as well as motivating their band. Life Of Agony play pure Rock’n’Roll that gets you from deep within making you go along. The sound is amazing. In between the first and the second song you can hear a message from an answering machine or recorded phone call. Listening to this album makes me want to be at a Life Of Agony show. They will be touring soon, so I might get a chance to see them. You should not miss out on that either. Till then keep “River Runs Red live in Brussels” rotating in your CD players.
