J – So what does AGONOIZE have in store for us this year? What can we expect from you in near future?

C – We have a double A-SIDE single that comes out soon; it is called “Open The Gate/To Paradise”.. And we have remixes by Psi-Corp, Tactical Sekt, Dance Or Die..

M – And also there are a few mixes by friends of ours who are new to the scene.. we like to promote them and give them the opportunity to be on a major release.. This is our way of giving back to the scene, you know?

C – Grendel also did a fantastic remix for us..Tomorrow also we are playing live with [:SITD:].. And we have finished the tracks for the new album, it will hopefully be released in September.

J – Any tour dates to support the album?

C – Not at the moment, but feel free to browse www.agonoize.de for more info!

So I leave Agonoize to their pre-concert rituals, and go away with a desire to learn more about them, to listen to the new release and get hold of the elusive first EP.
Live, Agonoize are a revelation. Much more powerful than I have found them on record, but that can only be a good thing, right? More suited to an intimate setting than the big hall of EDINBURGH CORN EXCHANGE but gripping nonetheless.Chris commands a powerful presence, menacing and in your face.. There are live piercings, oodles of fake blood, and a manic grin. Agonoize are part of the new breed of musicians and performers that are shaking up the scene. We need this fresh blood to breathe life into a dying sub-culture of ours. It’s like a sign of pulse to see a band at least trying to make a live show that is entertaining. All support to Agonoize, and their uncompromising and tough as nail Industrial sound that is not for the faint hearted, but for the brave hearted.
