Byzantine Posts "The Agonies" Music Video

Byzantine takes its ferocious brand of progressive thrash to new heights with “The Agonies,” the second single off new album "To Release Is To Resolve" (out now via CEN/RED Distribution and available for streaming right here).

The West Virginian band’s monstrous stage presence is further captured in the brand new video for the track which was premiered via Billboard.com. Check it out below.

Behind the thrashing track is a lyrical theme inspired by a social ill that plagues the band’s home state. “The song title ‘The Agonies’ is a street term for the severe withdrawal symptoms from prescription pain pill abuse,” front-man Chris “OJ” Ojeda shares with Billboard. “This subject is extremely personal for me as this problem has infiltrated many good lives of people I know and grew up with.”

See the band live on these dates:

April 17 – Beckley, WV – Muncheez Bar & Grill
April 18 – Parkersburg, WV – Sixpence Pub & Eatery
