The Agony Scene is a Metalcore band from Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA. The Agony Scene is also generally considered to be a part of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal.[[1]][[2]]
The band has released three albums, one on Solid State Records, one on Roadrunner Records, and one on Century Media Records. They were also signed to Abacus Records for a while before it folded.
Since Solid State records is generally considered to be a Christian music label, some people have assumed The Agony Scene to be a Christian band. So the band since moved to a new record label.The band has since confirmed in an interview with HM magazine that since parting ways with the label, they are not a Christian band and are the farthest thing away from that type of band. On why a band would want to be part of the Christian music scene, the band had this to say: "Why would you? I have no idea! I would never want to be part of the Christian music scene at all. I don’t want to have anything to do with it, honestly. It just absolutely disgusts me. That’s totally cool. Believe whatever you want." [1]
In late 2006 the band parted ways with drummer Brent Masters, and invited the newest member Ryan Folden a Spokane, WA based drummer to join the band.
