LIFE OF AGONY: 'Broken Valley' To Surface In May

February 15, 2005

Epic Records has set a May 17 release date for the much-anticipated new LIFE OF AGONY album, entitled "Broken Valley". The album's first single, "Love to Let You Down", is scheduled to go for radio adds around March 21. Check out the album cover artwork at this location.

The group has been recording tracks since October in two studios in Hollywood, CA, with producer Greg Fidelman (SLIPKNOT, JET, AUDIOSLAVE). Drums were tracked at the legendary Sunset Sound recording studio (home to where several DOORS albums were made),while bass, guitars, vocals and other overdubs were recorded at Westlake Studios (RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS). Songtitles set to appear on the CD include "Strung Out", "Wicked Ways" and "Don't Bother".

LIFE OF AGONY's upcoming album will be their first collection of new material since "Soul Searching Sun", which was released in 1997. The group's last release was a live album and DVD, entitled "River Runs Again: Live 2003". The two-disc set was recorded during the group's sold-out reunion shows at Irving Plaza in New York City on January 3-4, 2003 and was issued through SPV Records worldwide.

LIFE OF AGONY will be teaming up with MUDVAYNE, BLOODSIMPLE and AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE for a U.S. tour beginning in late March. Confirmed dates so far are as follows:

Mar. 29 - St. Paul, MN - Roy Wilkins Auditorium
Mar. 30 - Milwaukee, WI - The Rave
Apr. 01 - Chicago, IL - Congress Theatre
Apr. 02 - Detroit, MI - State Theatre
