about
Antigonė is a band formed in Kaunas, Lithuania, in 2000. By then the band's line-up consisted of four members: Milda (guitar), Dalia (bass guitar), Agnė (synthesizer, vocal), Rūta (vocal) and was meant to be a female-only band, although the drums were often played by male musicians. The band made a successful debut in 2002 at "Naujas Kraujas" (New Blood) festival where they had won the first place. The audience was swept along with the honest synthesis of symphonic and pagan metal, distorted female vocal duos and their charmingly occult appearance. In 2003 the band decided to move on from metal to more acoustic and folklore oriented material, and only 2 original members (Agnė and Rūta) were left in the band, and later joined by their long-time friend Gailė (keyboards). There has been no activity by the name of Antigonė since 2005, as each member lives in a different country now.
