#006 - Agonoize

This alphabetical list seem to be interesting since now when first six is checked I've had two industrial black metal bands, two Belgian EBM due and now I got second aggrotech artist in row. German Agonoize is somewhat familiar to me earlier. I have that Evil Gets an Upgrade v2.0 EP from 2005, but to be honest I haven't even looked that CD in years.

Duo format seem to be quite common in here. Agonoize was also originally duo, but they recruited vocalist quite soon. Agonoize has already quite long back catalogue even though they are not even 10 years old. Of course those "smaller releases" increase the catalogue easily, but still they have done quite a lot of stuff in last couple of years.

The newer stuff sounds really interesting. Some of the songs have german lyrics, which of course mean nothing to me, but I've never had that much interest on the lyrics (of course some exceptions exist). The sound of the vocalist is much more important to me. And Chris L, the vocalist of Agonoize, handles that area really nicely. Aggressive and commanding interpretation is pleasure to listen.

Here's a quite nice fan video of A Hellgate: London video game featuring Agonoizes song Glaubenskrieger taken from their 2006 released EP Ultraviolent Six.
