If there’s a single word to define Saint Agnes, it’s committed. Two words? Fully committed. Hailing from the UK, this four-strong outfit is all about honest lyrics, intense vocal performances (from Kitty A.

Reluctant yet convinced, Ben agreed to sit behind the kit for fear of his own demise. The first offering from your new favourite heavy metal militia, ´DO ...
