The Agonyst

"The Agonyst began as a two piece experiment in 1998 with Louis Coates and David Perrin (IHU, Supernoisegod, Dog Eat Fondue, The Skagbeetles). David became too busy swanning around with his la-di-da posh friends doing poppers and ramming each others brown ones to continue in the project, so their collaborative efforts were archived to possibly later be ripped off.
To this day, Louis continues the hunt for info-hungry musicians with the talent and sex appeal to make people almost forget that the guy at the front is definately genetically flawed on a very obvious level.

Band Members:
Rusty - Vox & Guitars
Nicola Briganti - Guitars
Todd Allen- Bass
Filippo De Pietri - Drums The debut album, 'Till You Decay', can be described as a meeting point for alternative rock and alternative metal, where the somber and dark sounds blend together a rush of anger and resentment while still leaving room for melody and reaction.
A journey through what the eyes can see but the mind can not filter.
A journey through what a man can feel but can not accept.
The awareness of not being truly free but subject to the "emotional rules" imposed upon us.
