Agonist

December 9, 2010 The Agonist tears it up on stage

So, today was actually my first final. It went pretty well considering I only spent 7 or 8 hours studying for it.

Alissa is the singer of The Agonist. She's kind of amazing because she has blue hair, and she has an amazing growl (what is known as screaming for those unfamiliar to metal). I love The Agonist because I find their lyrics interesting. They have a song called "Business Suits and Combat Boots" for which they have such an attractive music video. And a song called "Thank You, Pain" which is really artistically intriguing the way they use smooth and rough vocals. I actually don't really know what the song is about, but I love it!

My friend asked me, "Doesn't this kind of music make you sad?" Not at all. Though maybe sadness has played a role in what attracted me into metal...long story. It started with one pop rock band that lead to similar bands that eventually lead to metal. Haha,
