Over
the years the sound of BORN FROM PAIN has always kept
its trademarks and backbone intact; brutal groove,
murderous fast riffing and a feeling for most aggressive
breakdowns, never giving in to trends that have come
and gone in heavy music over the years. BORN FROM
PAIN has always felt that spewing lyrics that represent
feelings of anger, frustration, melancholy and social
criticism, works best over riffs that hit you like
a steamroller at full speed. The band strongly signals
a feeling of stand-up, honest, straight forward authenticity
to the world in a stagnant metal and hardcore scene,
which the band feels is ever so important in music
nowadays.
BORN
FROM PAIN are not, and never were, in this to win
a prize for the trendiest or coolest band, but to
express feelings harbored by many in our scene, expressing
the anger towards daily life, social unrest, emotional
hardship and the murder of the world as we know it.
Negativity, anger and frustration are feelings that
no one can hold back in this day and age, but we can
try and turn it around to make things better at least
on a personal level.
With
BORN FROM PAIN’s latest effort WAR, the band
has set out to deliver a devastating blow built on
murderous grooving, fast paced riffs and heaviness,
killer breakdowns and a pinch of melody, ever so subtle,
as a massive foundation for a non-interpretable message
of social criticism, emotional disarray and the importance
of an iron will in the year 2006… and many to
come.
BORN
FROM PAIN is ready to rumble in a world that is relentless…
THE WAR IS ON!
History:
BORN FROM PAIN was founded in the early summer of
'97, as one of the early European bands to play a
crossover/metalcore brand of heavy music. BORN FROM
PAIN grew up in a musical environment of mid-80’s
Bay Area and German thrash metal and NY hardcore,
90’s Florida and Birmingham death metal, NYC
crossover and US/European metalcore. Bands like Merauder,
Stigmata, Bolt Thrower, Obituary, Integrity, Testament,
Slayer, early Agnostic Front and Crumbsuckers were
of infinite influence on members as the fuse was lit
that summer… and for many years to come!
In
the near 10 years of their existence, BORN FROM PAIN
has been mostly on the road and working hard to get
noticed. And getting noticed started to happen fast!
After releasing their first MCD Immortality in 1999,
the band quickly followed it up with their first full-length
CD Reclaiming the Crown in 2000. Numerous support
and headline shows followed the release and 2002 saw
the release of the band’s second full-length
Sands of Time. Sands of Time received tremendous feedback
everywhere and pushed the band to a new level. Extensive
touring with the likes of bands like Hatebreed, Madball
and the Persistence Tour, just to name a few, followed
the release. Enter 2004. BORN FROM PAIN embarked on
overseas tours in the US and Japan which helped to
gain them attention from bigger labels and in the
year 2005 the follow-up to 2002’s Sands of Time,
In Love with the End, was released on Metal Blade
Records. 1½ Years of non-stop touring alongside
bands like Hatebreed, Napalm Death, Six Feet Under
followed, plus appearances at festivals like Wacken
Open Air, With Full Force Open Air, Waldrock Festival,
Pressure Fest, Hell Fest and numerous other bigger
and smaller festivals all over Europe, as well as
a tour of South America.
