AGONIST, (The) Eye Of Providence CD (2015)

By 2015, The Agonist had navigated one of the more dramatic vocalist transitions in melodic death metal, and Eye of Providence was the record that answered every sceptic. New front-person Vicky Psarakis didn't just fill a vacancy, she redefined what the band could do.

Canadian melodic death metal with metalcore edges and serious technical ambition, this album sits comfortably alongside the best of Arch Enemy's output while carving out its own dark aesthetic. Heavy enough to satisfy the metal purists, dynamic enough to draw in listeners from the harder end of the alternative spectrum. If you follow the genre seriously, this one belongs in the collection.

Format: CD. Full length album. Released 2015. Canadian melodic death metal, metalcore.
