Pain

Pain

Mechanical rhythms and death metal grit collide in this clinical, high-energy industrial debut. Cold, sequenced, and relentlessly aggressive.

A cold, mechanical aggression that feels like being trapped inside a high-speed digital processor.

Moments Worth Listening For
The relentless mechanical precision of the drum machine on On Your Knees (Again) that mimics a factory assembly line.
The sudden shift to a more melodic but still suffocating atmosphere during the chorus of Breathe.
The way the guitar riffs on Greed syncopate perfectly with the electronic pulses to create a wall of sound.
