Life Of Agony – 20 Years Strong : River Runs Red – Live In Brussels


Back when “River Runs Red” first came out I was all over this band! I listened to it constantly, could sing along with all the songs, saw them live,,... The subsequent releases were still good but never as good as that first album. A couple years later they called it a day only to reunite another couple of years later. They celebrated that reunion with a new album (that you can feel free to skip) and a whole lot of touring. I mean, try and find a festival or venue where these guys aren’t playing!

Even though Caputo & Co have dropped several albums in the past, the majority of their setlist always seems to consist of material from “River Runs Red”. So for their 20th anniversary, these dudes decided they might as well play those other songs as well, which is how come “20 Years Strong” boasts an integral live version of that album on both CD and DVD.

There’s no denying Life Of Agony are still good when it comes to putting on a show, but even I have come to the point now where they can just stop milking it as far as I’m concerned... it’s getting to the point where it’s just plain pathetic to be honest.
Score: 6 out of 10
