Life Of Agony - Through And Through [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

[@roguelead72]

River Runs Red is probably one of the most overlooked concept albums ever.

[@MrAlh1997]

Agree man🤘🤘

[@briancannon3987]

What's the concept

[@roguelead72]

@@briancannon3987 Teenage kid who's life is falling to shit, bitchy stepmom, gets fired, gf breaks it off and he's failing school(all connected with messages on the answering machine), end of the album he locks himself in the bathroom a slits his wrists, and ends with the stepmom screaming after she busts in and finds him.

[@briancannon3987]

True Story! Brooklyn metal scene... LOA / Carnivore / Biohazard

[@The1WhoKnowsTheTruth]

Summer of 94, job in NYC driving around making copy paper deliveries to companies, the van had at least 5000 watts of Nakamichi in it so........LOA (River Runs Red), Type O (Bloody Kisses) and COC (Deliverance) non-stop at extreme high volumes, all windows down. Wore out 2 copies of each cassette. What a great fucking Summer that was.

[@kanex52002]

Loa was the SHIT man, river runs red front to back was killer

[@DonnyBoSox]

River Runs Red, without question, is one of the best albums from beginning to end. It has been 23 years since it was released, and it never gets old to me.

[@thorthunderlungs5171]

1993 for me was 4 CDs... River Runs Red, Bloody Kisses- Type O Negative, Blind- COC, and Vulgar Display of Power- Pantera. There were some others too but those four were in full rotation for a couple of years straight. Good damn stuff.

[@dennisfinan7977]

Thor Thunderlungs blind sure was good man.

Donald Knepper Why am I OT surprised to find you here at the top of the comments section, D Mat Knep? You are the reason I know who Life of Agony is. Long live Vince Henderson and that weird fuck Christiansen. #BabiesAblaze

[@zachmerck]

Never gets old. This song, this album, are honestly timeless. I still get the same stoke as when I heard it as a kid in Jersey. The absolute.

[@TheDretch]

Or Carcass - Heartwork, Death - Individual Thought Patterns, Sepultura - Chaos AD, and Megadeth -Youthanasia. Actually saw Megadeth for this tour and COC opened at I think Roseland Ballrom NYC.

[@guyfyffe5920]

SO damn good. Grew up on this album, in an alcoholic/abusive home. This, Reign in Blood and Master of Puppets are why I am about to turn 46. Period.

[@19Murad77]

Let just say that I listened those too at the time. Keep rocking brother! Ps. I quickly dropped Slayer, but Metallica and Life of Agony forever!

[@EPKKC]

This album SAVED my life. Forever THANKFUL to LOA

[@sumdude4281]

Me too. This album made me realize I wasn't alone. Someone else was going thru or feeling what I felt.

[@link999991]

How could people not like Life Of Agony? This is one band that should made it all the way through the 90's and 2000's. They should have twice the albums released and this band is extremely underrated.

[@bvo108]

The rhythm on this track is unfucking matched. River runs red is one of the best albums of the 90’s/early 00’s

[@markc2519]

This has got to be one of my favorite songs....your voice is UNBEALIVABLE ...You Rock Mina !!!!

[@DonTheMoron716]

Saw LOA live about 4 years ago in downtown Buffalo, NY and they kicked ass!!! Crazy pit!

[@rxz8432]

that is one unique voice

[@TheAnalPunisher]

This is Keith's voice, not Mina

[@shanemullen3629]

I saw them open for Type-O back in the early 90’s. The singer Keith was a maniac..stage diving..running all over the place..was a great show! River runs red was the best album

[@tr607]

Keith/Mina's vocals are so badass on this album. I love this album. Been listening to it since 1993 and it's still as good today as it was then.

[@dannywalker6279]

This was as good of a album as you will find

[@TheNittyNitty]

Keith

[@SS-gx7tg]

I remember when this video premiered on Headbangers Ball (which I recorded every episode!), man I wore that poor VHS tape out rewinding this video over and over to watch it. I already owned Urban Discipline, but LOA definitely had their own style. River Runs Red is one of the only albums that I've listened to consistently throughout my life and if anything it has only grown more powerful. The vocals, the melodies, the lyrics. This album just captures a perfect aesthetic.. it also has a distinct autumn feel to me for some reason, like October/November depression, emptiness

[@SS-gx7tg]

Also about Keith/Mina's vocals, his vocal coach back in the RRR days was the same vocal coach for Bon Jovi - Roadrunner were investing big dollars cause they clearly saw the talent in Keith, now Mina. Honestly didn't like Ugly at all when it dropped but I've grown to really love it and now that I'm in my 40's I don't think there's a bad song on it, Ugly is absolutely incredible. Soul Searching Sun as well - in fact SSS is probably my #2 fav after RRR

[@JSlice-gk5br]

It's Keith only

[@MrAtomicDon]

This song is a constant reminder to show Love. I refuse to be cold and empty. It's not an option. Love LOA

[@mrcouch991]

Bought this cd in Sweden 1994 back when I was broke, even broker than today. After the first listen it felt like I had wasted my money. Woke up the the next day with the eco of Caputos voice in my head. Gave it another listen and..... lets just say the river has been running red ever since.

[@sherston]

What a time for music, the early nineties was! L.O.A, Sepultura, Pantera, Slayer, Paradise Lost, a just emerging Machine Head, great bloody days for sure!

a classic, overlooked thematic album in a world that chops up only radio hits. I am 35 years old and got down with this back in the day. This is true rock and roll....timeless and full of anger AND a message that a lot of us who grew up fatherless can understand.

[@Trenchfood]

I have to admit, when I first saw these guys, I thought they were a bunch of posers. After listening to the album more and getting to grips with the craftsmanship in the music, the way they let it breathe and learning more about Caputo's life, it became one of my favourite nostalgic albums. There still isn't enough of this kind of groove out there. Acid Bath are way up there too.

'Cause I'll be right here, yeah Can it wait, can't you wait, can't you wait Just a minute now, just a minute now, come on I need some air to breathe I need some space, just leave 'Cause I'm colder than ever colder than ever I said I'm colder than ever I'm empty Empty through and through Someday they'll see, someday I'll be Unwanting of somewhere to hide But for now I'll take shelter Deep in the back of my mind Can it wait? Can't you wait? Can't you wait? 'Cause I ain't ready to lay it on the line I still shake, I still shake I still shake And from this chill in my spine I've got this chill oh yeah In the back of my spine Baby all the time now Chilling my bones, chilling all alone now Find a way, find a way, I've found a way To cope with the everyday now Raise your hands if you understand 'Cause I'm colder than ever colder than ever I said I'm colder than ever I'm empty Empty through and through Smiling's just a phrase yeah And nothing can phrase me Smiling's just a phrase yeah And nothing can phrase me Come on

[@elementalguitars6364]

So many people here arguing about what category of music this is. 'It's sludge.' 'No, it's hardcore!' Blah, blah, blah. Fuck categories! There are only two categories; good music and bad music. Good music is an honest expression of a musician's emotions and creativity. It doesn't matter if good music sounds like metal, pop, country or rap. Bad music is an expression of a musician's desire to be popular and it doesn't matter what it sounds like because it will always sound like shit. LOA is fuckin' awesome! Doesn't matter if they're hardcore, sludge, whatever. They rock!
