Agony was born in Spring 2005 with founder members Andreas Blackrose, vocals, and Valek, guitars together with bass-player Steffy Webster and guitarist Mark, both taking part in the band for a short period. In Jenuary 2006 the band changes direction and begins composing its own stuff featuring new guitarist Pale and keyboarder Ste. Line-up is soon completed by bass-player Miki and drummer Lory Iron.
Live debut is on 3th June 2006 in Turate OpenAir Festival, followed by some other gigs, the most important one on 7th July at Zoe Club in Milan.
As Fall Descends Agony works on its first Ep "Your Dark Grace", recorded on 26/27 October 2006 at Frequenze Studio in Monza. The release reveals an
attractive and catchy sound, influenced by the Finnish gothic rock scene but also by 80ies dark wave and glam rock, achieving interest and attention from the audience.
In Spring 2007 Agony starts a long and great series of live shows in the Milan's rock'n roll subculture (Zoe Club, Indian's Saloon, Marmaja, Woodstock). By the end of June the band decides to go on without Ste and Miki but manages to end the summer tour thanks to old friend bass-player Erik.
In September 2007 the new core (Andreas/Pale/Lory), more united than ever, chooses Vega as new bass-player. Soon after Valek is dismissed for personal reasons. Jesus (N.U.M.B., ex H-less/Portrait Of Tears) joins as live guitarist to perform in the upcoming gigs at Muddy Blue (Alessandria) and
BlackHole (Milan) before he becomes officially and successfully part of the band.
In Jenuary 2008 Agony announces new keyboarder Valerious and performs in Dark Odyssey with X-ternals.
During February/March 2008 Agony is back at Frequenze Studio to give birth to its second release "Heartache Avenue", recorded and mixed by Guido Fioravanti (Fire Trails, OperaNoire). Motley Crues' rock'n roll attitude meets Black Sabbath's deep riffing and Bowie's decadence in five dark,
romantic, melancholic songs constantly hanging between grace and abyss in a whirl of bittersweet emotions.
In March 2008 the band shoots a video clip for the hit single "Sweet & Naive" directed and produced by Pale and opens Richard Christ performance at Zoe Club.
On 28 May 2008 the Goth'N Roll 6-piece releases "Heartache Avenue" with a Show Case at Blue Rose Saloon (Bresso, Milan).
The 6-piece restarts touring and plays in support of OperaNoire in October 2008 and Richard Christ in February 2009.
Agony is back in Fall with a brand new line-up including new bass player Ryan Darklin and drummer Mads ready to rock like never before...
