Agro

from the band themselves - with their permission. Formed in the early 90's as a non stereo typical thrash act, Agro added new life, combined with aggression and constant entertainment to a rock scene that had become saturated by bay area style death metal clones, within a few short years the band honed their craft, expanding musically and added a neo classical touch with a keyboard player to the already powerful melodic twin guitar attack.

The band has and never will compromise their sound and forge forward in the true heavy metal spirit with continuous live shows that offers everyone a show of true professional musicianship combined with a hedonistic, larger than life, tongue in cheek attitude. Fueled with beer and the true rock n' roll party spirit, all these years later with 5 full albums and African and European tours under their belts Agro will now take there orginal African thrash to the four corners of the globe and beyond with their 6th album having been signed up for world wide release.
Get ready to hail the brightest light from the darkest continent.
