LIFE OF AGONY's Keith Caputo Underwent A Sex Change Operation?
- Posted by RobInjection on July 14, 2011
Talk about shocking! Keith Caputo, frontman of legendary Brooklyn metal act Life Of Agony is on his way to being a frontwoman! The band will be playing what looks to be their final shows this weekend. There are many hints to his transition on his Twitter page, with one tweet spelling it out for everybody saying "M2F transexuals like me are the women who give up male privilege for femininity! Threaten the patriarchy!" Also, Caputo's personal website uses the pronoun "her."
While I am shocked, I also have to applaud Caputo for her bravery in going through with (planning) a massive procedure such as this, especially being the public figure that she is. Obviously, this isn't something she decided to do overnight and gave a lot of thought to. And while metalheads usually get sterotyped as immensely homophobic, there is a large sect that believes in the "do whatever makes you happy" motto of which Metal Injection fully subscribes to.
Update: Caputo recently confirmed via tweet that he is keeping his penis, which is officially the most random thing ever written on Metal Injection.

wow
Bah! Marissa from Cretin did it first.
I didn't realize it was a competition to be first.
Lmao thats rad
It's a shame that they would let you post on article on here when it's not based on any facts. It's like you just decided to follow him on twitter and saw his pics but did no research what-so-ever. Keith (Mina) Caputo is a pre-op TS. He has NOT to this date had a sex change. Also, the band members are not ruling out that they might play another show after this weekend. This whole article is pure speculation. Which would be fine if you presented it as such.
Even if she hasn't had the operation, she still uses feminine pronouns and considers her gender to be female, so it is very disrespectful that you would knowingly use "he".
Sorry, I spent 20 years listening to Keith's music, seen Keith play countless times and had many conversations with the man, Keith Caputo. Forgive me if I made a mistake on his transitional gender period. It's like when your friend dies but you still refer to them as if they were still alive. Not disrespectful, just a mistake.
Wow. That was unexpected. Good on him/her, though.
what an unattractive female. too soon?
Not with a stolen dick.
at least we know from her singing mouth that she wouldnt scathe you with her teeth.
Can't get periods…
Lol zing! Well played sir!
Guess what I'm perfectly fine with this or even if a band member is a homosexual.
I just don't fucking like those br00tal Deathcore faggots and queers wearing girl's pants and shirt while acting pretty and though at the same time.
Good for him if that what makes him happy, I just don't think chopping up your junk and making it look like a vagina makes you a woman.
It doesn't.
