Life of Agony

Mina allegedly accused Sal of bigotry, homophobia, and transphobia in what appears to be a since-deleted tweet. Sal responded saying ”Fuck you Mina” and by calling her a ”piece of shit” and ”Janis Joplin’s ugly twin sister.”

Openers at Bowery were the The Type O Negative related project Silvertomb, and Vessel of Light (members of Ancient VVisdom and Hades) who were playing their first-ever live show. Speaking of firsts, these new shows will be the first time Sick of It All and LOA share a stage.

Hurricane Florence has made landfall in North Carolina, bringing with it high winds and rains, power outages, storm surges and flash flooding. Now a Category One storm, the hurricane is still doing a lot of damage, and artists including Neko Case, Life of Agony, Frankie Cosmos, and Jawbreaker have cancelled and postponed shows accordingly.

also: members of Anthrax, Lamb of God, Megadeth, Van Halen, Hatebreed, Overkill, Testament, Type O Negative, Obituary, Alice Cooper, Life of Agony, Dokken Poison, Motley Crue, Twisted Sister, Skid Row, Alice in Chains, Blink 182 and many others (including the Iron Sheik!)

”This girl assaulted & fanatically bit my leg 2nite at the show in #SanDiego She’s still out there All venues/bands should ban her from attending shows,” Mina wrote.

”Imagine knowing exactly the moment that you’re going to die. I know exactly that your favorite song will be playing. By your favorite band. It’s just too perfect,” a Las Vegas woman texted her friend, in reference to Life of Agony’s Las Vegas concert.

LOA played some deep cuts and hits at their first of two intimate Brooklyn shows. It was also the debut of their new drummer (their old drummer just announced a new album too).

”With 2018 marking the 25th anniversary of our debut album, we are just so incredibly grateful to our fans for sticking with us all these years and wanted to do something really special for them. We’re breaking out some old fan favorites that we’ve never played before live and hitting cities we haven’t been to in over a decade,” says LOA bassist Alan Robert.

Life of Agony announce two intimate hometown shows at Saint Vitus (on sale now). Singer Mina Caputo also playing a solo show, and a Lou Reed tribute with Lenny Kaye, Hamish Kilgour, and more.
