MUST SEE LIVE 🚨Â
This savage collective epitomizes raw lyricism, fuelled by Kitty A. Austen’s visceral vocal onslaught, channeling unbridled rage into music that amplifies the voices dwelling on the outskirts. Saint Agnes transcends mere band status, embracing a gang mentality to embolden those scarred but unyielding. ‘Bloodsuckers,’ their inaugural album on Spinefarm, delves into a maelstrom of genres—metal, punk, industrial, and grunge—unfettered by convention. The 11 tracks, self-produced and mixed, emanate authenticity, with NIN collaborator Sean Bevan lending his prowess to ‘Follow You.’ Doom trap provocateur Mimi Barks intensifies the pandemonium in the electrifying ‘Body Bag.’
Forged in the aftermath of Kitty’s mother’s sudden passing, ‘Bloodsuckers’ navigates themes of mental turmoil, suppressed fury, enduring love, and, inevitably, grief. From the primal scream of ‘Bloodsuckers’ to the shattered lament of ‘This Is Not The End,’ a poignant glimpse into Kitty’s raw emotions, this album serves as a rallying cry for outsiders everywhere in the chaotic realm of alt metal.
This will be INTENSE!
