The Agonist's 2015 album, "Eye of Providence," marked a significant shift in their sound, incorporating more electronic and industrial elements into their established melodic death metal framework.
- "Eye of Providence" was the first album to feature new vocalist Vicky Psarakis, who replaced original singer Alissa White-Gluz. The album was produced by Mike Galioto and the band, with additional vocal production by Christian Donaldson. It charted at number 38 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart.
- This album saw the band experimenting with synthesizers and electronic textures, moving away from some of the more traditional Gothenburg-inspired melodic death metal of their earlier work. The lyrical themes often explored political and social issues, fitting the album's title which refers to a symbol of divine providence or oversight.
- Century Media released "Eye of Providence" on February 23, 2015, positioning it as a new chapter for the band following White-Gluz's departure to front Arch Enemy. The album received mixed reviews, with some praising the new vocal direction and experimentation, while others lamented the shift in sound.
The Agonist is a Canadian melodic death metal band formed in Montreal in 2004. They are best known for their blend of extreme metal and clean vocals.
