‘’Mina Caputo weaves her devious, heartfelt, soul stirring melodies. How someone so utterly captivating isn’t one of the biggest stars on the planet is an absolute mystery; taking your eyes off of her is almost impossible throughout and her voice remains a thing of wonder.’’ – Louder Sound

 ‘’The crowd was fired up as Life Of Agony stepped on stage as the band ripped into the set. What makes Life Of Agony unique is their fusion of heavy metal and punk that breeds this undercurrent of aggression that builds until it boils over and has the crowd moshing.’’ – Go Venue Magazine

 ‘’She was a charismatic presence, tightroping across the stage monitors and expressively guiding the band’s stage show, slinging water bottles into the sweaty pit of shirtless thrashers.’’ – Consequence of Sound 

‘’When Life Of Agony takes the stage they instantly catapult the room back to 1993 by launching into ‘River Runs Red’. Caputo extends and changes vocal passages through each track, showing her ability as a vocalist with excellent diction and spine chilling range.’’ – Punktastic
