Agony & Opium -- the debut release from Olympia, Washington-based metal act CHRISTIAN MISTRESS -- is streaming now in its entirety on Decibel Magazine's website! Tune in now to check out these six tracks of thunderous, purely infectious, classic heavy metal:http://decibelmagazine.com/Content.aspx?ncid=387320 .
Still a fairly brand new act, CHRISTIAN MISTRESS have created a massive stir in recent weeks, building up to and following the recent arrival of Agony & Opium, which was released on August 24th via Olympia's 20 Buck Spin label. Jacking tons of fresh and unique energy into a classic style, the band are quickly becoming known internationally via incredible media and fan response to the album.
CHRISTIAN MISTRESS are also preparing for their massive two-month North American venture alongside Thrones kicking off later this month, which will surely help catapult this band to even higher levels of appreciation from their new and soon-to-be new fans. Get ready!
