LIFE OF AGONY Performs New Song, 'Empty Hole', In New York City (Video)
LIFE OF AGONY recently entered the studio with esteemed producer Sylvia Massy (TOOL, SYSTEM OF A DOWN) to begin recording its sixth album, "The Sound Of Scars", due this fall via Napalm Records. The recording sessions took place at Sylvia's Studio Divine in Ashland, Oregon. Additional recording took place at various studios in New York. Massy also handle mixing duties for the album. The disc will be the band's first since the addition of drummer Veronica Bellino, who replaced Sal Abruscato last year.
LIFE OF AGONY's sixth studio album will be a conceptual follow-up to the band's debut. Released in 1993, "Rivers Runs Red" told the story of a confused and disillusioned young man with low self-worth and a poor support network, who ultimately decides to commit suicide.
"We're very excited about this next record," LIFE OF AGONY guitarist Joseph Zampella (a.k.a. Joey Z) told Michael Nagy from KJAG radio and Jiggy Jag TV. "This next record is really gonna define LIFE OF AGONY in the next decade — what it means to be LIFE OF AGONY. It's really gonna set a new standard even for the band."
Asked about the musical direction of the new LIFE OF AGONY material, Zampella said: "We really never discuss a direction. We always just write what's coming out at the moment, and what's coming out right now is the best LIFE OF AGONY music that's been around for a long time."
Bassist Alan Robert added: "And also the way that we're going about writing is kind of really getting back to the fun of writing. The last record, basically, there was a 12-year gap between albums, and we kind of got jaded from the music industry for everything that we went through. And now we're inspired again and having fun writing. It's kind of like the old days."
Continued Joseph: "[We're] sharing ideas again and listening to each other and checking out something someone has or an idea for a song that someone else has. And it's just really open and fun, and exactly what Alan said — it's fun again. Making music should be fun. 'Cause if it's not, there's an issue, there's a problem. And so far, it's been super. And you'll hear that in the music. And that's what I think a lot of people are missing in their music — that organic, fun aspect. You can hear that in people's music; you hear that in writing."
LIFE OF AGONY's latest album, "A Place Where There's No More Pain", was issued in April 2017 via Napalm. LIFE OF AGONY's fifth studio LP marked the band's first release since singer Mina Caputo (formerly known as Keith Caputo) came out as transgender in 2011.
Abruscato announced in December 2017 that he had "amicably" left LIFE OF AGONY. He has since been replaced by Bellino, a New York native who has previously worked with DMC, LL Cool J, Carmine Appice and Jeff Beck.
