Finish Line is in Sight!

Sep 3, 2020

Ladies and Gentlemen,

2020 has been a weird year, but thanks to you enabling us to record and release 'Eclectic', it's also been quite important and magical for us .

Months and months after the first song idea, line of lyrics in Niky's notepad or the first new demo, we're now entering the last phase of the process, so please let us fill you in on what's been happening lately!

1) Eclectic EP will be released worldwide on 16th September via Spotify, iTunes, Amazon, Deezer and others...
How about listening some songs excerpts here? Or pre-saving the EP before the release?

2) We have filmed a new music video to be released on 14th September...
Yes, this one is quite important as it's been a while since we put out some moving pictures. Check out the stories here or this post for some behind the scenes pics, footage or the video's backstory!

3) New Merch in the making...
CDs, USBs, t-shirts, buttons, bracelets, magnetic bottle openers, postcards, stickers and patches will be ready for distribution to you, the backers, in a few weeks. All the products will also be available at our gigs or on our website e-shop. Check out some samples below!

     

    

 

4) EP launch gig to celebrate our new huge milestone!
It's been challenging, but extraordinary - and boy, we're going to enjoy every minute of this celebratory show! If you cannot be there with us, please join us in spirit on 16th September, Prague time. 


It will be legen... wait for it......

    Skype Session

    You’d like to speak with us, but we’re too far from each other? Getting to our gig is a no go, because those damn plane tickets are just too expensive?

Along with that, you’ll get the Vol.3 merchandise package and an experience nobody’s had yet.

    Studio Eye

    Big brother is watching and so can you! During our recording sessions, we’re planning some insight footage so you’ll see the whole intimate process of laying down our tracks step by step. Spoiler Alert: as usual, there will be a lot of swear words after failed takes. In Czech, mostly, but rants are universal language, so be aware! (is the merch from vol. 3 item included? Yes, it is!)

    The Agony’s School of Rock

    For those of you playing some instrument and wanting to know how we play that riff, that fill, that solo, or that bass lick, we’re offering the possibility of jumping on Skype for some music lessons! Maybe it can turn the other way around with you teaching us, but one way or another, we’ll have fun. P. S. Katie can also virtually teach you how to play also kazoo or ukulele – as you see, our musical variety is astounding. P. P. S. Merch from vol. 3 included.

    Stage Worn Costumes aka I Want To Feel and Smell The Agony

    We spent most of the last year’s gig season wearing unified stage costumes for the very first time – tail-coat vests that were custom tailored for us by our first drummer, Jarka Červeňáková. And even though we value the clothing greatly, and it means a bit of nostalgia for us, we’ve decided to give it up for this campaign for those of you wanting to own something tangible we’d been wearing for so much of stage time. Slightly worn out, four pieces, OURS and here for you now. Take them, because one day it could be sold out on eBay after one hell of a click fight! (merch package vol. 3 included:))

    The Agony ACOUSTIC

    This acoustic gig is probably more for the CZ based fans, however, if you buy this item, you can either decide to invite us to your country, or get the CZ acoustic gig filmed and footage delivered to you along with the vol. 3 merch package! We can even dedicate a song for you :)

    The Agony ELECTRIC

    Pretty much the same as the item above, only in electric version which means hair, blood, sweat, unbelievable amounts of estrogen and heavy riffs. Again, this item is (due to us being far, not because that we don't want to!) probably more for the CZ based fans, however, if you buy this item, you can either decide to invite us to your country, or get this fiery loud gig filmed and footage delivered to you along with the vol. 3 merch package! And yes, even here we can dedicate a song for you!

    ‘Eclectic’ vol. 4 (DVD from the EP launch)

    We’ve been thinking a lot how to make up for you fans from abroad the fact that this item in CZ version contains the free entry to our EP launch gig in Prague. If you won’t be able to attend (and believe us, we understand), we’ll film the gig and send you a personalised DVD along with a batch of merchandise from the vol. 3 package. You will be there with us in spirit and have a nice memorabilia item that no one will take from you :)

    Music Video Outtakes Footage

    If you come to Prague, you can have a cameo appearance in our planned music video, but again, we understand if you cannot make it (though it’s a shame, because Prague is gorgeous!).
    Therefore, we’re coming with an alternative solution – we’ll provide you with Behind the scenes footage, including all the outtakes, preparations and comments. And of course the vol. 3 merch package!
