Life of Agony is a metal band from Brooklyn, NY who are known to incorporate hardcore and thrash elements into their music. However, some of their music is acoustic. They formed in 1989 after Keith Caputo was looking for musicians to form a rock band, she eventually recruited her cousin, Joey Z on guitar and long-time friend Alan Robert on bass. Type O Negative’s drummer Sal Abruscato was hired to record albums ‘River Runs Red’ and ‘Ugly’ on drums. He re-joined the band when they reformed in 2003.
After releasing two albums with this line-up, Sal left due to musical differences, and recruited a drummer for the recording/touring of ‘Soul Searching Sun.’ Keith Caputo felt that the band’s original spirit had left the band, and decided to quit in 1997. After a few tours with several vocalists, including Whitfield Crane, the singer from Ugly Kid Joe, the band officially disbanded in 1999.
In 2003, the band reunited with their original line-up and played two sold-out shows before their home-town crowd, receiving great reception. This eventually led to a new studio album in 2005, namely ‘Broken Valley’. As of 2009, they are still actively touring, but there are no signs of a new album.

Have they split yet or what? That was what I heard would happen since they apparently couldn't write new material that satisfied them.

I guess she finally is unwanting for a place to hide. so no longer she finds shelter deep in the back of her mind. We waited... now she is ready to lay it on the line. No longer she shakes from the chill in her spine...

The bad thing is that the band will become more of a tranny metal gossip thing than a great metal music band,so from now on this band is dead to me. nothing against Mrs Caputo but hate when a person changes the whole vision of a band.
