2. P.A.I.N short for: Propaganda And Information Network. Sort your tags to -> P.A.I.N

Established in 1995, The Propaganda And Information Network (as P.A.I.N is officially named) was first put together from the ashes of two seminal free festival bands: AOS3 and Radical Dance Faction. Brought together to carry on the same Anarcho-style rantings, but with a much harder, Punk Rock attitude to it (less toking and more drinking!) within the first 7 days of forming P.A.I.N managed to book up a 3 week tour, literally writing the set in soundchecks.

The band went from strength to strength releasing their first live demo (Prison’s no Place for Punishment – a real collector’s item these days,) within their first month of existence. Well that was 11 years ago. Since then P.A.I.N. have released 2 studio albums, 2 cd singles and a couple of live albums, and are currently working on a new studio album and a P.A.I.N. in Dub album.

There are a few gigs springing up around the country and more tours coming up in a couple of weeks so things are going great guns at the moment. “Sharpen your cutlasses boys, theres a mighty stormy sea ahead!!”

Members of P.A.I.N can also be found in less (London, England), SUICIDE BID, LEGION OF DYNAMIC DISCHORD, RUBELLA BALLET and ERIS.

P.A.I.N. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

The night is young and we start crawling
To the closest club, it is rowdy
Dancing, yeah, bodies grinding
Music pumping, sweat pouring

Why can't we stay forever this way
Slaves of the rhythm
Why can't we stay forever this way

Slaves of the rhythm

The day is young and the rays are calling
We don't want to go, we are stalling
Singing, yeah, ears chiming
Rhythm thumping, we are soaring (We are soaring)

Why can't we stay forever this way
Slaves of the rhythm
Why can't we stay forever this way
Slaves of the rhythm

Let's break the beat down

Why can't we stay forever this way
Slaves of the rhythm
Why can't we stay forever this way
Slaves of the rhythm

Why can't we stay forever this way
Slaves of the rhythm

Why can't we stay forever this way
Slaves of the rhythm

Overall Meaning

The song "Slave" by P.A.I.N. talks about a night out where the energy of the crowd, music, and dancing creates an atmosphere of being "slaves of the rhythm." The first stanza describes a night out where the singer and their friends are crawling to the closest club where the music is pumping and bodies are grinding. The second stanza describes the next day where the singer and their friends are stalling to leave as they are still feeling the effects of the night before. They are singing, their ears are chiming, and the rhythm is still thumping. The song then repeats the chorus multiple times, posing the question of why can't they stay forever in this energy-filled state of being slaves of the rhythm.

This song touches on the idea of escapism through music and dancing. The energy and rhythm become an addiction, and the singer wants to stay in that state forever. However, it is not sustainable, and the repetition of the chorus highlights the frustration that the singer cannot remain "slaves of the rhythm" forever. It speaks to the concept of living in the moment and enjoying the joys of life while they are present but acknowledging that they are transient.
