About Alan Robert

Over the last two decades, Alan Robert's band Life of Agony has built a die-hard cult following, selling over one million albums worldwide. Life of Agony is set to release their 5th studio album A Place Where There's No More Pain through Napalm Records on April 28, 2017. Rolling Stone hailed it as “One of the Most Anticipated Albums of the Year.” Robert is also the critically acclaimed author/artist of several IDW creator-owned comic book series.

LIFE OF AGONY Confirm Release Date For "A Place Where There's No More Pain"

Reactivated Brooklyn hard rock legends LIFE OF AGONY are hard at work on their new album and Napalm Records debut A Place Where There's No More Pain. Today the band has confirmed an April 28th release date. The track listing along with pre-order options will be made available soon.

"We're in the final stages of mixing the album with our producer and then we head into mastering sessions with Ted Jensen (ALICE IN CHAINS, MACHINE HEAD, DEFTONES) at Sterling Sound, NYC. This record is a monster and we're so psyched to finally share it come April. It's got such an energy to it. Raging guitar riffs, heartfelt lyrics and killer grooves. We definitely turned things up a few notches in 2017 and it feels great. And I gotta say, we've never been so focused as a band. Before we even wrote the first note, we all knew what kind of record we wanted to make. You can hear that drive and intensity in the tracks and you can feel the momentum building." - Alan Robert, LIFE OF AGONY

In support of A Place Where There's No More Pain, LIFE OF AGONY will hit the road this Spring in the Northeast United States. The first short run of dates kicks off April 27th in Allston, MA and runs through April 29th in Poughkeepsie, NY.

The second jaunt begins May 12th in Stroudsburg, PA and runs through May 20th in Sayreville, NJ. Additional dates will be announced in the coming weeks.

With the excitement around LIFE OF AGONY at a fever pitch, the band has announced a contest called the LIFE OF AGONY "Calling From the Underground" Unsigned Band Contest. This contest will award the best unsigned band in the tri-state area by being booked to open on one of their upcoming dates. LOA got their big break in the early 90's as an unsigned act, opening for OVERKILL, TYPE O NEGATIVE, and BIOHAZARD at The Ritz and now want to be able to give that chance to an up and coming band. The winner will be opening the band's hometown album release show April 28th in New York, NY More details will be announced soon.

LIFE OF AGONY returned to the stage and performed on multiple festival dates in Europe over the summer of 2014. They have toured extensively across the globe since!

IDW ANNOUNCES HORROR-THEMED COLORING BOOK BY CREATOR ALAN ROBERT

“The Beauty of Horror” Mixes the Mindful with the Macabre

Get that red crayon ready! Rock-star-turned-comics-creator Alan Robert (Life of Agony) has inked a deal with premier publisher IDW Publishing to create a unique, horror-themed adult coloring book, titled The Beauty of Horror, scheduled for a 2016 Halloween release.The Beauty of Horror is filled with intricate, hand drawn, pen and ink illustrations by Robert that take the color enthusiast on a twisted journey through bizarre carnivals, the zombie apocalypse, serial killer lairs, and haunted burial grounds. Horror fans and newcomers alike will welcome this GORE-geous and creative blood-soaked alternative into their coloring library.

Bloody Disgusting has the Scoop! Click here >

"The coloring book craze took hold of my wife and daughter a few months ago and I wanted to get in on the fun, but as I flipped through the endless pages of nature patterns, it dawned on me that someone left out all of the damn corpses," Robert laughs. "As a proud member of the horror community, I took it upon myself to stand up for the rights of monster-lovers everywhere. Why should we be excluded from the coloring phenomenon?! Needless to say, my take on the whole thing is completely warped, but I know I'm not alone... there's a lot of us horror-fiends out there looking to color in some morbid stuff."

The Beauty of Horror features 80 pages of original artwork depicting a variety of increasingly terrifying scenes and patterns. Featuring a beautifully chilling red foiled cover and high-quality paper that will ensure the pools of blood you color don't leak through the pages, Robert and IDW have come together to present a deluxe coloring experience.

"From the first image he sent over, it was clear that this was going to be a hit," says IDW VP of New Product Development, Jerry Bennington. "Alan (Robert) has such an eye for creating these coloring pages that are gruesome and gory, but still something you can't help but want to color. It's really like The Walking Dead have burst into The Secret Garden, and we love it."

The Beauty of Horror will be in stores this October.
